what do you guys do about the icons that bring up so much clutter
Ive got the icon toggel where you can bring up names/plane types etc but is there anything else that I can do to reduce it-what do you all do when entering a fight

Pick a couple and god hog wild until i die.  If you are having trouble keepingtrack of 1 target press tab as you enter.  Sounds like your frame rates are going in the pooper though, which is what happens for me.  Easiest solution, don't go near em.

Next to impossible on the small maps unless you want to fly past everything to a base where usually nobody is lol

Setup =>Prefrences =>ICON Display (I think.  there somewhere) you can adjust the SIZE of the icon's.  By reducin' the size that might help w/ the clutter.

Yes, you can hit them, but killshooter has it set to where if you shoot your friendlies, you'll get the damage you gave to them to your plane. Basically if you put in enough damage to take a wing off, you lose your wing.

So....don't do it! :rolleyes:
