Hi,
I'm still waiting for my copy of JTL. I'd like to ask all players how two players ship work. I mean, does one player drive the ship while the other... does what? Any detailed info is highly welcome!
Thank you!

One pilots and shoot the fixed forward guns, the other shoot the turret mounted guns. Simple as that.

Ok, like you said one person is the driver. The second person, is an extra gunner. Its like a MP ship, only you cannot walk around, and the driver gets to fire too. If you could imagine an apache longbow, one is the pilot, who has access to some of the weaponry, and theres the navigator, or "Co-Pilot" who has access to some of the weaponry. the only diff is, the pilot does all the driving in the two player ships.

Follow-up question - how does it determine who is the pilot and who is the gunner? Is the owner automatically the pilot, or can you choose who goes in what seat?

Ywing and TIE Aggressor currently the only 2 seaters.
And yeah, pilot is always the Pilot/forward gunner and groupmate is always the turret/secondary gunner.

The owner is always the pilot in a two man ship. The gunner is whoever is grouped with you as you launch.

Curently the owner of the ship is always the pilot. Unless they changed it from beta.

Yes the owner is always the pilot. In the bug MP ships you can get out of the seat and let someone else fly but in a 2 seater its always the owner.

Heh, yeah. It's a bit annoying that you can actually stillbe "kidnapped" this way.
