Is that behavior included in GWX 2.0, perhaps crews on DDs have fatigues can be included too? I still have 1.3 verison, plan on download 2.1 when it comes out. I am on wireless, it would take me long time to download but I think 2.1 would be worth it.

There is a limit to the number of DC's an escort carries, can't remember off the top of my head, but the number differs class by class.
There is also a time limit regarding how long an escort will hang around after having lost you as a contact. Again I'm not sure how long, but it used to be 20 minutes game time.
