Mark As Friendly

Allow users to mark other flying builds as friendly, this includes other players if you play in SPMP. Along with include some FT values for it so you can possibly automatically mark users as friendly and/or have them show up as your preferred symbol[Diamond, Square, Star, etc.] in user-created HUDs. The way to manually mark a user as friendly would be as follows;

On PC: Select the target you'd like to mark as friendly, Press the "Home" Key, Target will change from green to blue

On Mobile: Select the target you'd like to mark as friendly, press Pause and hit 'Mark Friendly' [Button would be above 'Restart']


Wingmen

Spawn in aircraft that will protect and/or join a formation with you. You can control them via the in-game AI Menu or through buttons inside of aircraft with Funky Trees.

How to spawn Wingmen; Pause, go to the AI Spawn Menu, and change the mode to 'Wingman' or 'Ally'. Select the spawn point and your preferred aircraft.

How to control Wingmen; Pause, go to the AI Spawn Menu, and open the 'Wingman Menu' [would be next to 'Mode'] And select from multiple options, like 'Form up' and 'Engage', or 'Go defensive', 'Patrol', 'Evade', 'Break off', and possibly more.


Datalink

Allow users to share specific data with other aircraft, like currently Locked on aircraft, Friendly aircraft, and any extra data set by the creator of the aircraft.
This would be helpful with Wingmen ontop of the 'Mark As Friendly' system, as you can tell wingmen what not to fire on along with tell your wingman what aircraft you are focusing lock on. This can be applicable to Multiplayer as well. [Datalink aircraft that are locked onto a target you are not locked onto will show that target as Orange]

How to use Datalink; Select a friendly or non-friendly target, Press 'Insert' or long-press[Hold] your finger on the target for 2 seconds. To disable repeat the last steps. Datalink sharing would be indicated by a down/up arrow next to the aircraft's name.
