Fight 1
Aircraft were significantly neutered in the stock game - not being able to attack airborn targets was annoying, but their movement is just plain stupid.
#518 will, once more, make aircraft far more useful than they were before, and the changes made for it may even help implementing #349, which is the number one community supported feature right now.
With #1115, on the other hand, I'm still not sure that was properly coded in the first place. I strongly feel that this should be doable in Ares already, and the fact that the submitter never replied back to me hasn't weakened that feeling.
If anybody wants to try this in the future and has trouble getting it to work, we can open a thread here on the forums and discuss possible ways to do it. Should it transpire that, with all the potential workarounds, there's no way to fake this, we can look into it again.
Kill: #1115
Support: #518
Fight 2
I do think #730 can be reasonably emulated, but to be frank, I simply don't think many people are going to use #564. The number of people doing single player maps alone is small. The number of people doing single player campaigns is even smaller. The number of people doing single player campaigns for specific mods is even smaller than that. And the number of people doing single player campaigns for specific, Ares-based mods with alternating sides during mission progression is going to be minuscule.
Yes, there might be one or two people doing it simply for the novelty factor. But it's never going to see as much use as #730 will see, by far.
Single player campaigns are a niche, it's as simple as that.
