Realistic cure for the blinding son... your hand

[Trapp]

Wouldn't it be nice to have a hotkey that would bring your hand up to shield the sun? It could only bring it up as long as you held the hotkey. That would prevent pielets from riding around with it up there all day. Not sure why anyone would because it would surely affect their SA.

Why on earth would you want to blind your son man?     

[Rino]

     That was my thought as well

I like the idea.  Create a "hand" graphic that simply allows a small "shaded" area right below it for a bit of a tunneled vision.

My guess is that it would be a coding nightmare, though.

idea is good but would be great if we were also allowed to only show a finger to the well deserved fiter

Dad always said I'd go blind if I used my hand like that.

I'd also the hand to come with different versions, say passing an nme fighter, maybe the one finger salute b4 engaging. Or passing a friendly, to give a-OK signal. There's a lot to come from this. 

here's some more hand signals.
