Tired of not being able to find flags?

Well if brain aint gonna do nothing bout the neuting i decided to make neuted flags easier to find. How? By making them red.

i admit they look horrible from here but they look a bit better in game.

 

Here's how they look in the middle of an asteroid field.

I would keep the dropped flags yellow cause I can just see someone complaining about how they cant pick up neuted blue flags

[mij]

only affects you, not anybody else nubie

[mill]

yes, i think he knows that. Proto always brings out the stupidest in a person. He's implying that they will forget they applied this "patch" and spam wtf hacks.

[protoman.exe]

Yep

[Deathboy-evil]

pssh, gave it to everyone.. now people can find all the flags 10x easier in the blue areas of 6 and 2.. Oh well I'm still glad I got mine as red/orange and yellow. I keep mine as red/orange for base 5.

[mij]

oh my bad. didn't know there were people out there so.....disadvantaged.

[Deathboy-evil]

disadvantaged?.. You can change em if you want, whatever I said bout letting everyone know was a joke.. everyone should already know how to change their flags to a different color.. Whatever I said was just a suggestion on how people might want to change their flag colors...

Your primitive eyes amuse me. My only trouble with finding flags is my insanely small resolution.

[mij]

...dbe i was talking to mill, not you.

[Deathboy-evil]

[mij]

Dear Deathboy-evil:

 

Go away.

 

Sincerely,

I think you'd have to center the flag in the frame, d1. But still a great joke

[★ D1st0rt]

Thats what I had it as first, turns out it does it by upper left

 

mill: if it doesn't work you suck at life

[Kilo]

I think I'm seriously going to use D1's or a variant, just because it's hilarious.

 

Edit: This is for those that still have trouble:

lmao d1 ftw

[chocko_cc]

The effort. .. ahh.. it burns my eyes!!

[protoman.exe]

I did a flag set at 15000x3000.

 

The lines around the flags only showed up when I was in range of them. So it entirely defeats the purpose that I wanted them to serve.
