Quadrant activity markers
« on: October 02, 2000, 10:20:00 PM »
Quadrant marker...the bane of any sneaky Bas***d's existence.  I agree with the pin point radar.  That can be overcome by hitting the field radar with a "Wild Weasel" mission of sorts.  But Is there something that can be done about those quadrant markers?  I mean there is no way you can do anything sneaky with that watchdog hanging over our heads.  

Yes, we could just go and take out the city and HQ all the time.  (You have to take out the city because the HQ renews even before the buffs get home if ya don't)  Is there any way to make it so an enemy will not be able to see the markers for a quadrant unless there is at least one person (or factory/field) in that quadrant?  I.E...enemy looks at map and sees nobody in quadrant that he is about to move into.  But after his buddy (or he) moves into that quad all people on his side can see the enemy activity indicator for that quadrant.  This would encorage recce patrols, and would still allow people to get some alt in their own airspace without sending up a flare to everybody that you are doing so.

Just a thought...if my idea about the markers only visible if you have people/buildings in that quadrant isn't clear I'd be happy to reword them/further explain.
