Steady hands: a calmer autopilot and the black-out returns
Two things pilots flagged: the hands-off autopilot porpoised on a phone, bobbing the nose up and down instead of holding level; and the black-out you used to get in a hard turn had quietly gone missing. Both are fixed — plus a bit of screen back, with chat and the kill log folded into one stream.
An autopilot that finally holds level
Switch on the hands-off autopilot and it should trim the nose onto the horizon and leave it there. On a desktop it did. On a phone it porpoised — every little correction overshooting into the next, the nose sawing up and down while the plane chased a level it could never quite settle on.
Now it settles. The autopilot holds the horizon steady on a phone the same way it always did on a desktop — hand it the stick, and it flies flat and calm no matter how the connection is behaving. It gives up a hair of snappiness for a nose that stops fighting itself, which is exactly the trade you want when you've let go to check the map or line up a bomb run.
The black-out is back
The grey-out veil had drifted out of reach: you could crank a hard turn, feel the plane groan, and the world stayed clear when it should have been closing in. That's fixed. Ride a committed hard turn now and the edges darken and draw in; hang on too long and you're flying half-blind through a pinhole. It's a soft ceiling you feel in your eyes before the G-meter's even gone amber — the reason a warbird without a G-suit can't just yank forever.
One stream for talk and kills
Last, a bit of screen real estate back. Team chat lived in its own stack bottom-left while the kill log ran top-right — two feeds, two corners, twice the clutter. They're one stream now, folded into the kill log's spot. Chat still reads apart from the combat log: comms carry a soft cyan rule down the side and a 💬 tag, kills and world events stay plain. Open the composer and the recent thread resurfaces so you can see what you're replying to. One corner, both conversations.
The best fixes are the ones you never notice — the autopilot just holds, the world just dims when you pull, and the corner of your screen is a little quieter than it was.
