A new update is incoming this month! It's going to be bigger than usual, with some exciting brand new mechanics being introduced to the game. Ahead of the next update, we wanted to give you a sneak peek at one of the new features to be implemented in World of Warplanes.
When flying long distances in a plane of any kind, let alone a warplane, pilots can become extremely tired. In wartime, pilot error is life or death. In order to make the game more realistic, we have introduced a new ability - Auto Pilot.
Auto Pilot is a limited use (per match) ability available to all planes and can be used in all game modes. You may activate Auto Pilot twice per match, for a duration of 30 seconds each. Auto Pilot will assist you in controlling the plane's trajectory and can fly without player-input for the time it is active. Auto Pilot will not take any action other than traversing the map. Players may let their dog out or put the kettle on in this time.
