Title: Not A bug, but

Your personal Icon of a plane is too large. It covers up enemy planes over your base.

Zooming more solved that for me.

You can change icon font size in Options/Preferences/GUI

Does the icon size setting affect the ownship object on the clipboard map?

Think he meant on the clipboard, your "icon" of your aircraft is "too big" and masks aircraft in the area.

Zooming in resolves that, but of course the cost is at decreased long range SA.

This I did not know...Thanks...

Also is there any way to make the squadmate icon any bigger on the clipboard map...I have tried a lot of different colors to try and make it stand out more but I still can't see them well... :salute

I hate the clipboard a lot less than I used to now, it has taken some time.  However, the two things I think could be improved upon are your self airplane being about twice the wingspan it needs to be, and the size of the plane talking on vox is way too big.

What I think would be a better highlight for that is maybe just a pair of brackets around the talking plane when they're talking?  Like (T) for the guy keying up?  It would be less obstructive to what's going on around him, I think.  It would keep the one chatty tank from obscuring the furball over a base.  Maybe instead, or in addition to that, have the one that's keying up be behind the other vehicle icons on the map instead of going over top of the other vehicle icons?
