Icon Colors
« on: January 01, 2008, 11:10:27 PM »
Most of the time I've been online in AH the icons have been green or red.  Today I was seeing several icons that were gold.  What's up with that?  They were the same country but a different colored icon.

Default icon color for squadmates is orange, I believe. You may have seen it as 'gold'.

Ok, but I'm not in a squad.

Unless I've been drafted.

Cntrl- s, Squad and voice highlight. It turns whomever is on the same radio 5 channel that color.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

Orange is squadmates or anyone else tuned to the same channel as you.  Yellow (or gold) are people in the same mission as you.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Ok, one more icon question, I've been rooting around in help files and keyboard maps but no luck so far.  I've been out of AH for about a year and am amazed at  how much I've forgotten... never mind how bad my skills are :lol

I remember there was a way to change your country's pilot icons to show what they were flying instead of their name.  Anyone?  Thanx!  :)
