Short sweet and to the point tactical display had a x and y axis for distance but no z axis . Since this game is played in a 3d structure just thought it would be nice to have a line extending above and below your ship with The distances hashed out. |

I think that's a great idea. Often do i find myself (and IGÇÖm sure many of you cloakie alts do also) sitting at xKM above your target and would love to see the Z axis and ranges on my tactical overview.
+1 I was just talking to a friend about this same subject.

With that change I would also like to see a 360-¦ indicator added to the tactical display? (90-¦to the right, 270-¦to the left) Obviously one would have to pick a common direction to have this apply.

+1 to this idea.
It would definitely take some creative design work to make it unobstructive yet still useful. Also, take this further like Major Kim suggests. EVE already has cardinal directions (current tactical overlay is consistently aligned the same way for everyone and is related to the solar system itself) so it makes sense to add a degree readout to the far edges of the display. For an FC, being able to tell people what direction to fly in by giving a new heading ("come left heading 230, 5 degrees above the horizontal") and not having to always be told to fly towards a celestial just for the sake of keeping the group together could be hugely delimiting for group combat and would go a long way in bringing a "naval" feel to large fleet fights.

There is one constant to all solar system: the star. That's got to be the universal reference.
Would a "flattened" mode for tactical overlay solve or create more problems? |

to add on the 360 idea would be nice if FC could broadcast the heading and it be broad casted to the fleets hud showing the proper heading for each player regardless of their POV. |
