Suggestion: Please Allow Gunners to swap gun positions like the pilot

[Gunner_Ratchenko]

Hello!

 

A pilot can switch positions, but a gunner has to leave the mission, re-select another position and then re join, which can be frustrating. The reasons for requesting this are as follows:

 

• Leaving the mission and re-joining is a little long winded and those valuable seconds of switching position to fight off an enemy are vital
• The gunner role is currently unrealistic. We know that gunners had to take control of other guns if something happened to the other men on board
• The pilot can switch (which I understand why if he is a single pilot) - but why shouldn't the actual assigned gunner be able to do so as well? 
• You could even have it so that if the pilot locks the gun positions, then the gunner already in the plane can switch. But if he unlocks them (say if other players want to join as gunners) then the gunner positions are fixed. Shift C doesn't seem to work for me.
   

Thank you.

Thanks for reply, but it doesn't work...I don't think it is possible? Some of the other lads in a server I just went on all tried to switch too and couldn't do it.
