Flight Performance

Yes, I support MajTom in his opinion regarding the HUD Lines. I think SC, the lack of the lines is just a matter of usage.

Regarding the inertia I'm still on the point that it had to be noticeable ... thats one of the differences of I-War to other SpaceSims.

The current test settings regarding the speeds/acceleration (in x,y,z direction) of the TF are fine and the maximum speed will be acceptable when the maps are smaller.
After our testing with the speeds and ship size I have resigned to the fact (the second time after the tests with the Buda5 team) that you don't see the fighters in combat themselves. That is the disadvantage of the I-War 2 engine but to leave the mod playable we have to live with it (or make an own stand alone game ).

Narrowing the internal camera FOV does wonders for making the small ships more visible. The only downside (which doesn't bother me) is that the cockpit becomes a little less visible. PS set the FOV to about 63 degrees (1.1 radians), but I find that between 40 to 50 degrees (0.7 to 0.87 radians) gives a better, more realistic view.

I tried changing the focal length, in flux and via pog but it didn't work in the MP game [V]

I dunno why[?]

Btw, we @Buda5 also played the game a while with these settings (for fighter combats):

But we changed them after a while back to default 'cause it's more difficult to hit on close distances. Well, if you want to see the other fighters more detailed feel free to try these settings.

I know you're tired of hearing from me about this by now, but, I've never had any problems of any kind using an FOV of 0.71 or lower. How could it be harder to hit up close when the weapons are mostly aimed by flux anyway? I use a much narrower firing arc for weapons than the standard game and I've never had any unusual trouble hitting things at any distance. Everything looks much better and even the smallest ships show up wonderfully (and the big ships are impressively massive). I'm not saying that you should use it, but I've been using narrower FOVs since I started EoC and I've only ever seen benefits.
