Remembering the last reg. and selected skin

[YoYo]

Is it possible for the IL-2 to be a step forward from the IL-2 BoX?

It would be useful for the simulator to remember the last registration selected for a specific aircraft and the last livery selected by the user (as MSFS does, for example).

Currently, the registration and livery must be re-entered each time the simulator is restarted.

Be even cooler to have a 4 pilot box with a Prop South, Jet South, Prop North, Jet North pilot character that one could permanently peg a bort number, tail codes, unit patch, flight gear, and helmet decals and save each configuration.  Than you have an option to simply pick which pilot.

+1.

It would also be good if the pilot remembered his helmet. Generally, this applies to all customization for a given aircraft.

The simulator should save the last selected customization (also a modification and fuel level would be nice), rather than always resetting this data.

Looks like this idea was accepted. After 002b patch the sim remembers last plane status! ❤️ Thank you!

Mods, weapons, code and skin.... 💪

not helmet and unit logo.

Mmm... Strange. In my case it doesn't remember the tactical code of the plane. I have to fill it every time I start a mission. at least in multiplayer server. I think it would be good too that saved gun convergence would be different for each plane instead of remembering the same for all.

It's a bit hard to say how it works. It does remember my settings, but I feel like it's random (weapons, sometimes it shows the latest ones, sometimes not), but I always have the tactical codes entered.
