As I understand it, co-op mode is actually covered in the generic dogfight servers stuff. You can setup battles exactly as you would in the old IL2 co-op mode but in one server type in BOS. So its there, just not labelled as you expect.

We'll see, when we can have the dedicated server software. IL2's coop was able to fill empty slots with AI - an important feature for us, which I think is not supported by the BoS server.

Actually it should work as the RoF version and it can fill with AI if I'm not completely
misinformed.

In the last few days one of the developers on the BOS forums specifically stated that BOS dogfight server could do that - that there is no specific need for a co-op server separately because all functions of the old co-op are already catered for in one server version. Apparently this information has been around for a while but its not been advertised much.
