Squad Logo over mission counters on Lancs
« on: June 08, 2011, 05:04:30 PM »
A minor bug on the Lancs..

The system places your Squad Logo over the mission counters on the Lancs.

Not a bug.. the "counters" are just part of the skin underneath that spot. I think that's the custom skin. Whatever pixels under that point are arbitrary, really.

I know the mission counters are part of the skin, but don't you think there are other places the logos could be place so as not to cover something else? I think on the Lanc there is room on one of the vert stabs.

The squad logo is traditionally near the cockpit, where the pilot is actually supposed to be sitting. There's no reason to place it in obscure random locations because then they'll be blocking something else.

It's not like those mission scores are YOURs, right? They're just eye candy. It's not much of an issue.

Is your squadron symbol the NATO cross with some feathers hanging off of it?   ;)

And how would the game know which skin someone is using, and move the nose art "somewhere else" that isn't covering something playerA thinks is important but playerB doesn't?
