Cockpit Pilot query

Hey awesome Pilots

Just back in my A-10C Pit after a long hiatus and forgot about my Pilot not being there whilst flying. Can anyone tell me if Pilot appears in the pit depending on the Campaign or Mission or is the Pilot always unavailable? For the life of me I can't recall. Would be nice to go shift p anytime one chooses and hey presto.

Little known tip: you get a pilot body if you hit shift-E three times.

 

Took me a while to realize that you are actually telling the truth :lol:

Out of curiosity - do non-VR people like to use the pilot body if it's available?

 

I get the idea in VR - but using a monitor I find it mostly just distracting and in the way. So personally I just turn it off and watch my own legs & arms instead :D

Still no pilot body, although ED has said one is coming.

 

At this point I’m assuming it’ll come when they do the texture and cockpit revamp.

 

Pretty exciting for me as a VR guy.
