change the darbar colors
« on: July 31, 2025, 08:04:00 PM »
For those that switch sides looking for a target rich environment,  the darbars on the map do not tell the whole story.  Given that switching sides can make or break your limited playing time, it would help to be able to make a more informed decision.


Can the dar bars be made to correspond with the GUI colors chosen to represent the other countries?

That would let you know who's winning the battle and who needs help.  I don't want to leave the high number country, only to join the hording side of another lopsided battle.

Ive wished for this before. I agree with the sentiment. Many times ive wanted to switch because there was little action on my side, but couldn't tell who was winning the battle so I could switch and help out the losing battle side and get some fighter action in.

When I see conditions as described above, I still only have to fly a couple minutes to find a fight.   

Is it that you want to find a fight or find a fight loaded with easy kills? 

If you don't have the time to perform a proper mission, you probably have something more important to do than gaming.

You sure make a lot of assumptions.

But you are absolutely right.  I only want easy kills, because I'm far too lazy to perform a "proper" mission.

Are you speaking for the entire arena population?
