You can train one character per account at a time.

unfortunatly you cannot, although if you have 3 pilot slots available, the option should be available :(

As long as there was some penalty in doing it, such as your training time would be multiplied by 4, 1 for each character training, and 1 for the penalty, possibly.

I'd much rather see an account skill queue instead of a character skill queue, so you could swap training from Alt A when that skill finishes and start training on Alt B.

Interesting on the penalty idea to a second trainer as that is semi-reasonable I'd say. However having three accounts training, even if two were a quarter of normal speed may be a little much. I'd even go as far as paying a little extra a month to open up a slot for this, granted I pay in plex mostly or 3-6 month increments when in-game funds run dry.

Aaah this again.

What's that other MMO that let's you level two toons at once?

I'd be all for that. Annoying to stop one character, log off, log on, and start on another.

None that I've played - just drop the coy insinuations and tell us which one.

It is. If you want to train 2 characters at once, they just train at half speed.

Char 1 train for a day > Pause Char 1 > Char 2 Train for a day... etc.

Or just allow skill pausing from the login screen.

Or better relogging process.
Although you can consider this "issue" as little nudge from CPP to make alt account, which is not only very useful for you, but they get extra coins :)
