Going to have a new thread once we get our changes into the staging branch. Expect more news before the weekend.

Main changes:

  • New target icons.
  • Damage flash now is top damage dealers over time
  • Camera tracking settings (and keyboard shortcut you can set)


was on bucking. a few hours ago and encountered soem issues.

first; the camera tracking is now in a eve-style option menu which is good but it gets set to tracking the target everytime you undock. so if i disable it and dock, after undocking the camera start tracking again -> not good.

secondly the red circle area indicating the enemy with most damage done overlays with targeting timer (during the targeting process) and the health bars, making them pink when full und red when empty. the difference between pink and red is hard to reckognize in this case so maybe make the red underlay a bit smaller?
to be honest i liked the red bracked flashing for successful hits by the enemie more...

otherwise the new hud works fine for me and fits right in with the other circular hud elements :)

The problem is that is shouldn't be the same bracket as used on other ships, as it can lead to confusion, especially amongst our newer players. Thus it would be better to handle it in a different way, introducing a new bracket for your ship for example.

we can take a look at it, but it won't happen until after Retribution.


Then it will be a good idea to get the "alt" feature back. On TQ, when you press alt, you get a bracket on your ship. This was far enough to see exactly where your ship is. A single circle like the one you got when you click on your ship would be perfect.
