Looks like some good changes, especially gunsight zoom and tail-wheel modeling changes.

Icons are now permanently under the planes/vehicles?

Tracers are back to their beta3 form, or something different?

was it me or did the range of icons change with target location?

seemed if the bogie was above I have the long icon range and when the target was below, it became the short icon range

also the distances ticked off in 200 increments - good idea

the dar dots were white for both friend and foe - another good idea

now do something about the spit rayguns pls - one ping and ur eng is ded - one ping from over 800d

I like the icon changes, the prop damage, etc, but performance still suffers, and I still get flashing structures.

It's looking good, got to agree with Eagler on the spitty guns...they do seem a bit stronger. Kwan nailed me on a vertical last night...He was showing 600 (I dont know if that means he was 600 or closer...or 600 or more)...anyway 1 ping in tower...not even chopped up...vaporized:eek:

Was a fun fight though:aok

The icon range now changes in increments of 200 yards under 1k, and 500 yards over 1k :) I like it!

I have noticed the "laser" thing too.  Maybe its because the damage model may not be fully functional yet (or turned on or whatever).
