Grey Wolves and Ship contacts ?

slipper · 10-26-06, 08:21 AM

I am running grey wolves, and find it a brilliant mod. However with the ship contacts i am given " to much" info for what i would prefer. eg if i select a contact i get the exact position, a tail which gives me its direction, and if i zoom right in i get a little "pencil marking" of a ship, from which it is eay to work out angle of bow and speed.

I had some mod a while back that gave you a ship contact " circle " in which the ship was located, this gave a bit of uncertainty as to the exact location, also when zommed right in it did not give a ship icon or a tail, and you had to hover the mouse pointer over the location for it to show up, then mark this position, then after a while longer do the same, you could then work out bearing, direction of travel, and speed, but it gave a bit of guesswork to it. i think it was the old NYGM mod.

So to get to my question, does any one know how to make the contacts not so " easy" to obtain a firing solution on, and or a name of any mod that might do this.

Any help greatly appreciated
