Author Topic: Turning off your radar blip (Read 2038 times)

I would love to see your radar blip disappear when you are noe. I hate being able to be seen by friendlies and having your position given away by cheaters and other nit wits. Or even an option to turn it off so no one can see it. I go in halves on the Hitechs bribe! Anyoe else agree?

Or being able to turn it off for Squad/Mission.

If your flying below Radar alt your radar blip might not be visible to the enemy if yout flying at like 5k your radar blip has to be visible to yh enemy they did not have stealth planes in ww2

note: this is not ment to have helldiver request a F-22,B-2 or F-117:lol

If you are NOE, enemy cant see your dar dot unless your stupid enough to be about 1.5K and expect to be hidden

Read what Fighterpuke wrote. He wants to be able to turn off his radar dot on his own side's radar. So two account weenies can't spy on him when he is on a NOE mission. I've asked for this feature before, used to do a lot of NOE until it became pointless.

If you want to rationalise this in WW2 terms, most aircraft had an IFF transponder in WW2. This gadget told radar operators they were a friendly aircraft. Some planes at least had an on/off switch for their IFF. All that would be needed is a ".iff 0" or ".iff 1" command.

Great idea:aok

Greebo hit the nail on the head. I dont think any radar was capable of picking up contacts below 500 feet back then anyway. I may by that 12 year old scotch for mister hitech......anyone had any luck with bribes? lol Glad to see people agreeing with me......just might get it changed!

Nope will not change.

HiTech this would solve the problem of *spies* seeing the mission moving towards an enemy base and reporting to their team. It wouldnt stop a spy from joining a mission and then reporting on the mission. Dunno if it would cause other problems though.

Sure they were, in fact spies are still with us IRL. AH is a game and spying in a game is just plain lame.

What part of no don't you understand? The "N" or the "O"?
