Anyone tried to create waypoints on the pizza map?

This 3D view of the chess pieces is near worthless for mission planning.

Is there an easier to set up waypoints that I'm somehow missing?

Or... maybe HTC can add a simple 2D, god's eye view for mission planning...

thots?

I've never liked the maproom view of the map. It's much worse now. However, I've only ever made one mission in the MA and it was a squad one so it's no biggie to me.

More...

It would be nice if the map room had as much information as the kneeboard GUI map, radar circles especially.

You can adjust the map room view to be top down to plan/place waypoints accurately. I haven't played in a while so I can't remember the exact way to do it. I think it is , then rotate view to above the map. (if it doesnt work try , ...else experiment).

Thanx Virage... figured it out.

Still wish it had radar ranges and altitudes.

Virage: "I think it is , "

Duh! Now why didn't I ever think of that? I'll try that next time I'm in. I still have a feeling the map (for being the "map room") won't be as detailed as the kneeboard map. I'll check it out.
