Very Simple Feature Request

Jul 10, 2003 Kuvagh link
I'd like to request a couple of features which I imagine would be relatively simple to add.

Arcade/Physics mode HUD indicator: I ilke to switch between physics and arcade mode for various reasons. Occassionally I scream out of a spacedock, find myself in a dogfight, try to reverse only to realize I'm in arcade mode and I can't. Just a little "PHY" or "ARC" thing somewhere on the HUD be great.

Autoaim toggle and HUD indicator: Right now I have the commands for turning autoaim on and off bound, but I think it would be cool to have it as a normal command. I'd also like a HUD indicator for this. I know I can target something and if it doesn't turn yellow auto-aim is off, but I'd love to have some further indication somewhere, too.

What do you think, Devs? :)

Ow ow ow ,I love this "the arcade/physics thingy :D". But for god sakes, why would you think about cancelling auto aim?

My aim is already that bas with autoaim on :(

cheers

Great idea. Put this in with the idea of custom HUDs that are planned for the future. I'd also like to be able to change my reticule color. I can't tell you how annoying it is to aim with the current color when you're in the middle of the s14 asteroid cluster. It just blends in too easily. A simple hack that involves hexadecimal colors values would be nice even. Anything!
