Yeah, Its really annoying to see NO dogfight servers around anymore. I myself hosted a popular dogfight called "WWII Naval Dogfight" On the map Wake Island, Which Yes, I plan on reviving. Dogfight servers are great for any one: The pilot, the tactician, the soldier, the defender/ attacker, you name it. Its probably just right for you.

If we do a Dogfight, I suggest using the Terrain bricks to save brick count, making a central island, a few smaller ones, and the "Opposing Fleets/ Armies" on either side. One of my favorite parts of my first dogfight was when a minigame started, everyone on the server jumped in their plane, and met in the middle of the battle field at the same time.
If you wanted to host a dogfight, you'd want a few noticeable islands/ structures at ground level so that it can be used as a marker for flight.
Yeah, Support x1000. Ill MAKE time to do this.
Dillpickle:
Isn't someone already making a huge server for such reason?

islands (unlimited water)
space (unlimited space)
flat plane (unlimited slate)
you won't be able to recreate slopes or any kind of land-based terrain map well enough out of bricks where it could be used for things like jorgurs dogfight.

Remember it was never actually fully unlimited - It would go on so far and then you would end up back at the start. They were as if they were spheres or worlds, whilst everything else was a flat plane.

Hopefully we can see Stratofortress release his F-18 and mi-28 when he finishes them (was hosting earlier) They make for perfect air combat in these builds.

Friend said he's make GSF terrain gen
