    Custom cursors for BE and NF:
    As commander and also when using one of the GUI-windows, use a custom cursor, one for BE and one for NF.

    +pros:

    • Adds to the polishing.
    • Looks better than the Windows-cursor.
    • Shouldn't require that much coding.

    -cons:

    • Need cursors first.
    • According to Beerdude, might be impossible to do on the Source-engine? :/
    • Not actually needed, but a nice thing to have IMO.

    alternatives:
    • Give the player the ability to select his own cursor.

    I made some cursors. They probably arent good, but maybe sufficient and might give you an idea if you want to make some.
    (They are also halfway transparent.)

    I actually have no idea how to do this. One issue that was discussed in the HL-Coder mailing list was that it'd be bound to the FPS of the game or something, but I dunno if that's just bad implementation or a limitation of the Source engine or whatever
