<div class="IPBDescription">weld me</div> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=44914&view=findpost&p=1203875' target='_blank'>here is the thread</a>

In a nutshell, it's obscenely hard to get people to weld you, esp if you don't have a mic, the thread proposes a "weld me" voice command but that is deemed to expensive, however that doesn't mean we can't have a weld me sprite that is similar to the voice comm sprite, the ! in CS when you use radio commands, etc.

If you have the time, and the drive could you make a weld me icon that you could see floating above a marine, preferable with the welder in the sprite, or whatever. It really doesn't matter, I'm just looking for something that can give people a visual of the idea to garnish more support for it.

moreover, if you think this is a good idea go post in the I & S thread.

Thank you for your time and have a pleasant day,

Steven Daubert : TAK

    close, but no cigar

    while that is a leet plugin, I'm just looking for someone to crank out a spirte so we can get a feel for what it would look like if the suggestion was implemented

    thanks, could you make it triangular, as to give more indication of who is welding.

    I'm very much obliged that you are willing to donate some free time to this.

    There's some wierdness along the top right corner--on the inside. It's as if there's another corner a little inside, a mirror of it. It doesn't seem like much, but it'll be very obvious in-game.
