This patch has added some little in-game features I had been meaning to do for a long time:

1. Targeting lines - you'll see lines from your selected vehicle to its weapons targets (assuming they're inside their firing arc). The lines get stronger the better chance your gunner thinks they have of hitting. The colours of the lines don't mean anything, they have simply been picked to look different to each other, so your front left gun is normally a purple line, etc.

2. Your car's selection circle colour now shows the stress of its occupants. It ranges from green>yellow>red. A blue circle is used for cars that you have selected that aren't yours.

That's awesome. It will certainly make the game easier. Too easy? I guess we'll have to see.

Everyone loves bonus UI feedback! :)

Now I can stop shooting the dunes, too.

Thanks!

Any way the arc from the CGL could be used as its aiming line? It is really hard to tell whether your gunner is going to put the round in the dirt 10 feet behind you or actually make the shot...

I'll take a look. If the enemy is within range though, the shot is always feasible. If you hit the dirt close to your car it would normally mean that you're out of range.

Well, that's understandable, but then your gunner shoot shoot at max (45 degree/800 mil) range, no? not just fire it into the dirt, I would assume...

Sure, yeah. It's just the result of the calculations I'm currently using that makes them choose a low trajectory. I'll fix that.
