Title: Search Lights ???
Post by: Heater on August 17, 2001, 07:51:00 AM

HiTech,

I was just watching a film clip from WWII, during the night bombing raids on Germany, and I saw something Aces High is missing,
Search lights, I do not know if it would be possible, but it would look very cool!

I'm all for this. Doesn't have to be functional either... Just AI random wicked eye candy searchlights that kick in when a con gets to within a certain distance from the field... moving in some sort of search pattern... Would rock.

That would make finding your targets a bit easier

I liked Fidds idea of player targeted search lights.......

or even the idea of search lights "locking on" to an AC they locate whilst moving about randomly.

I s'pose they do not have to centre on the field
