Change Request - Setting EMCON for multiple units

This is a change request, not a bug report, so save files and logs are inappropriate.

At present, it is not possible to highlight several aircraft on the base/carrier window and then set EMCON for all of them at once on the EMCON window. Instead, each plane has to be set Active or Passive separately (with repeated interruptions from the EMCON Obedience pop-up). This is a major playability issue, especially in large scenarios.

Please make it possible to set EMCON for multiple aircraft in one operation (as used to be possible).

Also, please remove the EMCON Obedience pop-up, which serves no apparent purpose.

It serves a very big purpose. Before it was implemented, players who didn't understand EMCOM were turning radars on and then reporting bugs and cheating AI because their units were being detected. This popup stopped that.

OK, I've added this to the Change Request page as you suggested.

I can live with the EMCON Obedience pop-up if I only have to dismiss it once for a squadron of aircraft instead of multiple times.
