We already have next to no half decent radar coverage UI, just a colour map that isnt labelled, explained, or intuitive, hidden behind an arbitrary keyboard key
Speaking of polish, a better reveal than *pop* *a wild Flash Tank appears!* is needed. Some kind of quick little fade-in/fade-out animation would be really, really nice.
But not necessary.

I haven't been able to use the semicolon key either, in scandinavian keyboards it's the shifted version of the comma key (and that's already bound to prevmenu). Do you know how to bind the ├Â-key instead (the one to the right of L, that would make more sense)? I tried with adding:
Code: Select all
keysym oe 0x060
bind oe toggleradarandjammer
But it doesn't work.

How about making a widget that only draws FoW and radar ranges on the minimap instead? Now we have a minimap that basically has the same information as the real map, somehow they should show different things to be of maximum use.
Also, is there a way of making the minimap black and white for better clarity?
