~start with .480-style grouping system
tab toggled by numpad-9, icons for all players within group, requests to join, all that good stuff
~add multiple groups, say 5 or 6-ish
group icons are in a row, lined up with group tab button (numpad 9)
individual groups can be shown/hidden via ALT+#
players can be in multiple groups, so...
~group1- fleet group
all members of a fleet that are on the server get grouped together
~groups2 to however many- players' decision
group for buddies on the server, one for a tranny capping group, maybe one for bomber/supply pairs, assault teams, etc..
~not gonna touch on shared pres within groups, cept that with multiple groups, its probably a bad idea

Ive had a 1 year lapse sense i subscirbed (then lost passowrd and screename) for one month.
So fill me in
1) Were u allowed to talk to whole faction or jsut group?
2) Could you give orders only to the peolpe in ur group?
3) Was there a group leader?? (or was this a non registered thing that we would just choose)?

Also, there should be a setting to have the group target whatever the group leader targets (or just have it appear in a white diamond, or something stand-outish)
Or this could be activated by a simple hotkey.
This would make coordinating fleets a LOT easier, not to mention more effective, as the leader could actually fight instead of continually typing in targets for your fleet to engage.
Also have the group leader appear in a big white diamond, so everyone can easily follow him.
