SIGN IN REQUIRED

COMMS shares your CmdGlas login. You're not signed in on this device yet.

Sign in on the CmdGlas tablet (top-right account pill), then reopen this window.

The comms backend isn't current. Run cmdglas_org_phase0.sql, phase1 and phase2 once each, in order, in the Supabase SQL Editor, then reload.

COMMS is your wing's command net: live text channels, a member roster, a live who's-online map, and — for command — a squadron board to run the wing.

CHAT — live text channels. Pick a channel on the left, type, press Enter (Shift+Enter = new line).
ORG — the member roster grouped by rank, showing who's online. For command it becomes the Squadron Board (§6).
WING — the full hierarchy on one screen: Wing Command at the top, every squadron and its leader below, and your own position highlighted.

General · Party — the General Gamer Pool. Open to every signed-in pilot, no approval needed.
Org · CHAN 1–6 — your org's private channels; they unlock once an org's command approves you.
The channel you pick in the tablet's COMMS header opens straight to that channel here.

Sign in on the tablet (top-right account pill) — COMMS shares that login. You land in the General Gamer Pool immediately; #general and #party are open.
To join an org: ORG tab → JOIN AN ORG. That org's own command reviews you — the system admin is not involved.
No org fits? FOUND AN ORG on the same tab. The system admin approves the org itself, and from that moment you are its Wing Commander and vet your own pilots.
The moment you are approved — or your rank or squadron changes — a banner tells you instantly. No reload needed.

Wing Commander — commands the whole wing. Approves applicants, sets ranks and squadrons, appoints Squadron Leaders. Full control.
Squadron Leader — commands one squadron. Command tier: can approve applicants and manage members.
Flight Lead — leads a flight (about four ships) inside a squadron.
Element Lead — leads a two-ship element (a lead and their wingman).
Wingman — a full, approved pilot flying the line.
Recruit — applied, not yet approved. No access until a commander clears them.

The wing is divided into squadrons (e.g. Alpha, Bravo), each with a Squadron Leader.
Every approved member sits in one squadron (or Unassigned). Your squadron shows on your roster line and on the WING board.
Elements — command pairs pilots to an Element Lead (the “— element —” picker on the squadron board). The roster and WING boards draw each element as one group: the lead plus exactly who flies under them.

If you are a Wing Commander or Squadron Leader, the ORG tab is a command console:

Applicants — each pending recruit has a rank picker + squadron picker. Press Approve to admit them, or Deny to reject.
Move members — every member has a squadron dropdown; change it to move them between squadrons instantly.
Set ranks — the rank dropdown on each member re-ranks them.
Set a squadron's Lead — press Lead on a member inside a squadron to make them its Squadron Leader.
Every change appears in that member's window live, with a banner telling them what changed.

Party up — open #party in CHAT. CREATE PARTY makes a 6-character code; your friends JOIN with it. No org needed.
Party lead — the seat is claimed, not given: if no one leads, press CLAIM PARTY LEAD. The leader can HAND OFF LEAD or remove members, all from their own console.
Callsign menu — leaders (and org command / flight leads for their squadron) type a base like STORM and press ASSIGN: every pilot becomes STORM 1, STORM 2… in list order. Each pilot's callsign can also be set by hand.

Command tasks each squadron from the ORG tab board: DEFEND · GUARD · ATTACK · SUPPRESS · DISTRACT · LURE AWAY, plus a free target (callsign, gamertag or location).
Every assigned member sees a YOUR ORDERS strip above chat the moment orders are set.

PARTY CMD / ORG CMD tabs — appear in the header for party members and org command. Clock + planetside day/night, a scrollable roster of everyone under you with live heartbeat status, and (for leaders) callsigns and flag controls.
NETCALL — the leader's call in the blind: one transmission, highlighted loud in chat for every member on the op.
KIA / NEED RESCUE — buttons above chat when you're on a party or org. Press KIA and your name flashes KIA ↔ your name on every commander's board until cleared. NEED RESCUE flags a MEDIVAC chip the same way.
Offline grace — drop off your tablet and your name flashes dark orange for 30 minutes; after that the party leader's console automatically unlinks you from the party.
OP PLANNER (ORG CMD page, command only) — name the op, set the local step-off time and comms plan; assignments, orders, callsigns and elements fill in live. EXPORT PDF, EXPORT EXCEL, or DISTRIBUTE TO ORG in one press — every member on the chosen channel gets the op order instantly.
✉ buttons on the command rosters jump you straight into that member's comms channel with their name pre-filled.

The GROUPS tab lists every pilot online right now and what they're up for — mining, bounties, salvage, and so on, plus the seats they need.
Post your own advert at the top: pick an activity, note what you need, POST IT. It clears itself after 12 hours so the board never shows stale adverts.
Next to every name: REQUEST JOIN (pick the seat you'd fill — pilot, turret gunner, medic…) and INVITE TO PARTY, which sends them your party code. Both land loud in #general and the pilot gets an instant alert.

The WING tab draws the whole chain of command: Wing Command → each Squadron and its Leader → the pilots under them.
Your node is highlighted so you always know where you sit.

Press the expand icon in the COMMS pill to open this whole console full-screen. Esc or CLOSE returns you.

The dot up top: green = live, amber = reconnecting (messages may lag), red = offline.
“BACKEND NOT SET UP” — the org owner has not run the setup SQL yet.
“Permission denied” — you are not an approved member; ask a Wing Commander.
“Sign-in expired” — reload the tablet and sign in again.
Still stuck? Use Report an Issue on the tablet — the Chat/COMMS section asks the exact questions to diagnose it.

These live channels and the roster are the org side. For a personal group (just friends), party up through Spectrum + in-game — set that up in the tablet's COMMS → Set Up → Personal.
