Flying off the map
« on: February 24, 2018, 02:57:22 PM »
Today had a set of buffs fly off the map and appear at this strats above 20 K.  I think you should be given a 1 minute warning to return to normal airspace and if not all ordinances should be disabled.  For the rest of your flight. :airplane:

You know this issue has been brought up many times.  Why start a new thread about it?

   To Me it's cheating. I'd prefer if It was like running into the ground, and You don't get a minutes warning for that.   Just Boom.  Have a blast.

It's either 1\4 or 1\2 a sector from the edge of the map and you get your arrow saying you are off the map. That is probably up to now all the investment in it Hitech is willing to go. That arrow follows your location pointing at you I believe, so it's not like you are invisible once you pass the boundary edge of the clipboard map. I make all the area outside of my 10x10 arena water and boarder the 10x10 with a continuous highland or mountain range. That way you cannot come back in at water level NOE, and it keeps you exposed to radar and 163.

Because reviving ancient threads is frowned upon maybe?
