At the moment icons are either on or off and thats it. Icons on servers look like this;
Official 1CGS Icons on EU server;
and Coconut's Icons on server;
Not really convinced by either of 'em. As you can see, as icon's are not configurable yet it's just a bit....meh.
You see icon in distance, he sees you, gain height for merge, etc, etc and then its all in the wrist action.
I'm not really sure if its worth the time or effort to put up a DangerDogz server yet. Apart from the very obvious problems that FT has pointed out, I think the whole dynamic of multiplayer in BoX is about to change with the next imminent update which will give us a coop mode that players will able to host from their own machines without using the DServer system.
Another 'wait and see' methinks. At least it'll be a short wait this time!
Anyone up for another Euro time get together for BoS one evening soon? Tonight perhaps or Monday, Wednesday......Friday.....?
