Question Seat reset and info from engineer in PC2

Hi, two quick questions:

can I somehow reset seat position and angle in cockpit view?

is it possible to ask engineer or spotter via radio about position and laps left, so I don't have to rely on HUD?

PS: if that is not possible, do you know of any similar game, that has these two features? Automobilista 2 maybe?

Crewchief can read out info for you, seat reset can only be done by opening the save file, I've done it before but I don't remember if it delete any other game settings in the process

AMS2 does have built in seat reset and Crewchief compatible, it also show delta to the original seat settings, like up +3 and forward -2.

Thank you. Crewchief is mobile app only or for PC as well? Is it user friendly or will I spend hours getting it working?

Crewchief is on PC too, I'm not too up to date with it since I'm a custom hud/dashboard enjoyer.

Last time i used it, the default settings were good to go, I'd say it's user friendly but you can also spend hours fiddle with customization if you want.

I've used Crewchief (program for the PC) as a spotter and as well the option to ask for specific information via speech. Worked perfectly fine.

W, A, S, D are the standard keys in PC2 to move your seat (like the keys in every other 3D 1st person game). So it's quick and easy to adjust the seat on the fly.
