Targeting cone for burst weapons
« on: January 31, 2010, 09:06:57 pm »

When you have the range lines activated and are targetting something with a weapon that has spread it would be cool to have a cone spread out from the player in yellow lines to show where the spread will go. It's hard to tell sometimes even when enemies are grouped together which ones are in the area of effect. Same could go for grenades as well, there would be a circle around targets you mouse over.

Hell no! It still have to be a mystery. Even FOV is temporary here.

\thing is with the flamer its hard to tell what is going to get hit, usually its a direct line but sometimes it hits people from the side.
