Hello all. As I've been working on Vasudan Imperium I've come across a strange bug relating to when there is a wing in the mission named Pi, and one of the player wings is renamed to Pisces. The wingman indicator on the HUD seems to confuse the two.
Please download and run the following mission to see what I mean.
