[suggestion] New command: orbit left/right

[David Mudrak]

Hi. Firstly thanks for a great game. I really like it. Let me suggest
to implement a new command called Orbit to make a full circle to the
left or right and then continue on the original heading. The syntax
could be like

ANYID O L
or
ANYID O R

Orbit is a standard pattern to get some space.

I like that idea, however I think it should continue in a circle
until told to continue or you could put:

ANYID O L 2
or
ANYID O R 4

(orbit Left 2 times or orbit right 4 times)

Well, I prefer realistic behavior. What you describe is actually the
holding pattern. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airfield_traffic_pattern#Procedures_in_the_pattern

Yes as a holding pattern.
