    Because I'd play the game more if a lot of stuff was fixed and I like to keep track of it in case that happens, targets isn't really high on my list of things that need fixing though. It'd be nice, but I'd say stuff like weapons and general gameplay could do with an overhaul, the way the game plays out in general often isn't very good, it kinda collapses early in most games, targets won't really help that.

    Besides I wasn't aware you needed to play the game constantly in order to be allowed the honour of posting on the highly exclusive official forums.

    It's not likely to be because I probably don't have the model files any more, I had to make changes to my computer since I made them and as they are of no use to me and nobody expressed any interest in them, I didn't bother to preserve them. I can't find them on the computer and so assume them lost. I'm not going to make any more.

    That's unfortunate. I don't really blame you, but... it kinda makes the whole idea moot now, we all know that things rarely get done without all the props in place, and without it, the idea's bust.

    I wonder what was going through Mootant when he made the new minimap system, this is a far better system right here.

    Which, I must point out, is easily modified to use the standard large radar building with slightly increased detection ranges.

    Models are not actually required, and thinking further it would probably work better with the big structures because you don't need as many, and taking out one gives the team that does it a useable advantage.

    Because I didn't like the idea. Listening posts = cameras.

    Odd that you would object to automatic information gathering and then bring the game closer to perfect knowledge than it's ever been.

    Seems incongruous.

    Crossing fingers for this in one of the new updates so I can play again and not hate the wall hacks attacking bases stealthy.
