Pilots!

Update 2.1.4 introduces two unique pilots with special skills!

  • Each pilot belongs to a certain nation and has a specialization, i.e. pre-trained for a specific aircraft.
  • Unlike the standard skills set, each pilot has two unique skills:
    • New skills have special names and replace the two passive abilities of standard pilots.
    • One skill is tied to the aircraft the pilot was originally trained for and will not work when retraining to another aircraft.
    • The second skill is universal and will work on any aircraft.
    • Unique skills cannot be reset, i.e. pilots always have them and points are always put in them according to value.
    • The cost of resetting skills is indicated on the basis that points invested in unique skills will not be refunded upon reset.
  • A unique pilot can be retrained for any aircraft of the corresponding nation.
  • If the pilot is in the barracks, a special barracks bunk is shown in the Personal File instead of the standard one.
