Unwanted Chute Icons
« on: November 11, 2018, 10:34:26 PM »
If I have icons turned off for enemy and friendly planes, I still see chute icons.  If I am going for a realism feel, that is unhelpful.  Unless there was another arena setting for it I missed.

Thanks in advance.

By chute icons do you mean players or grunts?

Sorry.

The AI players within a Staged Mission.
I don't have my dev machine in front of me, but I think I set
FriendlyIconRange = 0
FullIconRange-0
PlaneSeenIconRange[plane]=0

I don't see icons on my fiendly or enemy AI planes now, but I noticed I was seeing a chute icon on a shot down AI.

It's possible, there is another arena setting I need to change that I haven't elarned yet, but I'd assume the chutes would be controlled by the same logic ans the enemy plane.

:salute,
