Colours and flying
« on: February 04, 2001, 04:22:00 PM »
While flying tonight, as well as green and red planes were YELLOW ones... what does that mean?

You know when you get a message saying that you can't use that plane from your field when you try to take off...? Is that just because it's been bombed to hell?

Anyone got any pics of what fuel dumps / ammo dumps etc look like on a field?

Yellow icons are people that have joined the same mission as you are in.

Orange icons are if your squadmates if you are in a squadron and have turned "squad hilight" on.

White icons are your wingman you have selected by the command:
.wingman [callsign]
He will also show up white on the map.

If you get the message that you can't take that plane it is either because:
- The hangar for the plane is destroyed (click on MAP and see what the status of the hangars are on your field, enabled/disabled)
- You are on a carrier trying to choose a non-navy plane.
- You are on a vehicle base trying to choose a plane.

I got screenshots of the 3 types of fields (small, medium, large) with labels on each structure on my homepage. Compare to what you see from tower to learn how each structure looks like.
