Pilot names over planes in multiplayer?

Split off from the topic General Forum thoughts.

How about the names of the players above the plane while they are in MP?. As in Microsoft FS

Just a short question: Have you ever looked at planes in sky and seen their callsigns above them? I hope not.
So I guess this is one of the main things making FS(X) a game and FlightGear a simulator. We aim for realism, they aim for being like e.g. Minecraft

Its possible to have that option, dont care about commercial games.

FS(X) a game and FlightGear a simulator.

Is that why we have pilot-list and ctrl-u, time acc., fuelfreeze, possibility to refuel in flight ect etc.

[D-ECHO]

Ha... got me

I guess there could be several ways to implement it, as usual, and that it most probably would be as an opt in feature (in essence not on by default on a clean install). First way to implement it that comes to mind is using OSGText.

It could be optional. In the multiplayer menu you could enable or disable this feature.
