New Radar vs Old Radar - comparison

[oboe]

In the first version of this radar change, dead radar was coded with a red shaded circle, but HiTech got complaints from players who are red-green color blind - they could not tell the difference between the "up" and "down" shaded circles.

I think that would just make it harder to see/spot.


 
Yesterday there were times when the dar was down at a base, and the bases around were not and only a very small portion of the "lt blue" circle showed as the grey/green/ of the "up" dar over layed most of the circle. Maybe it was due to the zoom level I was at on the map, but a quick scan and I almost missed that dar was down at that base.

It's definitely very much less obvious when a dar is down vs when it isn't than it used to be. I don't like it, but I suppose I can learn to live with it.

Lefty is right here, kind of rude but i agree with him; Same with the stupid hangar or whatever object at the end of the runway, i crashed a 262 this evening taking off , hmm, what an improvement  .

Latest dar update rocks.  I like it.

I'm confused, we move the spawn point that had the building at the end to the bomber runway?

 Montis map last evening i was taking off A18 east runway (to attack SKs missions ) , 262 with 100% fuel i couldn't reach the take off on manual , there are some trees and buildings right at the end i couldn't clear, have to squeeze narrowly in between, maybe the auto take off works .

Does this mean it is time for Superman to fly around the arena and check things out? Maybe Batman? How About a black wall from 2001 A Space Odyssey?

The new radar rings are perfect. IMHO

What was the altitude of the field and was it a small field? I got in trouble with that testing my terrain and setting my 262 to auto takeoff with no flaps. Now it's two notches of flaps and 25% fuel for auto take off and it just barely clears the sugar pines off the end of the fighter grass strip. A super large airfield at 5000ft can be problematic without flaps on auto takeoff.

If this was on buzzsaw, I can see people loosing 262 on takeoff by not accounting for the field elevation. Or do players think auto takeoff is a second cousin to air spawning?

Maybe the 262 should default to the marseden matting for both directions.

Naw, that map sucks.
Plain and simple.  Can you not see that?
