Reduce Icon Range

[Arlo]

I would be nice if the mossie bomber and fighter put up the same icon..........on the map screen.

The current system differentiates bombers and fighters by function not airframe shape. I suspect that was specifically for buff hunters. (Ya reckon?)

Do we really need the map icon to do that when people have been jumping into manned ack to see the icon from the gunsight and clearly see the airplane shape at 30k feet?

It just further funnels the gameplay into an ever narrowing box.

Once the buffs only up low level bomb and bail missions, the "buff hunters" will have nobody to hunt.

This is supposed to be an argument against how clipboard icons work?

Nope...........just the declining number of mission types affected by the changes.

A perception of, no doubt. State yours, clearly.

I've vouched for a long time to have a "#" icon to denote number of engines, then below 1000m allow for the model.

I agree that there needs to be a long range icon, but I think it shouldn't be a dead give away.

Seems a bit complicated as compared to the current system which has an elegant grace to it.

There is a setting to change the fighter/bomber icons on radar to just dots.  That is an easy change.

Arena setting? Because players asking for changes of this nature want it to be universal and affect everybody, I suspect.
