Is it Possible to Change the Range Icon "Properties"?
« on: May 24, 2000, 07:47:00 AM »
I'm wondering if it is possible to change the range icons settings so that the distance "counter" works in a fashion similar to Warbirds.  

Please don't misunderstand this as a WB vs AH thing.  It's just that I'm having a bit of trouble getting used to the way the numbers roll so rapidly once they are under 1000.  It tends to be a distraction for me.  In the back of my mind I believe the AH system is probably better, but for me, I prefer to see the numbers listed in two digit format as opposed to 4 digit format.  (I.E. 4, 3, 2, 1.9, 1.8, 1.7 etc, as opposed to 1000, 999, 998, 997, 996, etc.)


Thanks!

SAW, just say NO to the above question.

If you really want to know the answer go read all the posts in the WWIIOL BB.

(Saw's really not as irritating as sixxo)

So, am I to understand it is not a nice/amabiable person then ?

Is it just me or do I start to see animosity towards me lately ?

Looks like your thread's getting hijacked hobo.  

I don't think there is a way to edit icon properties right now.

If it's any comfort to you, I had the same problem to start with, but now I am completely used to it. Of course, I have been playing since September too.

Yep it sure is.  Guess I have to ask that those of you who are not interested in the subject, but would rather *chat*, to PLEASE either start a new thread or use e-mail.

NP Maniac.  After reviewing my last post I think the words sounded a bit harsher than they were meant.  I agree that the topic seems to be dying.
