Hey all, I am hoping today that I will be able to get some help, I recently played continuum a few years back and was wondering if I could get anything to help me along my way, would anybody be willingly enough to create this simple little guideline to improve my aim to what it was?

I have a turret aimer which is just like this and it really does help, I was wondering if somebody would make it for just my normal ship, without being turreted, please anyone?

I also posted the same thread in at http://www.ssforum.net/index.php?showtopic=23873 if you would like to post there then please do so, I will be checkin both, many thanks. JUGS

what's stopping you from making it yourself?

You just need to make a huge ass picture with this thing rotating around the center of each frame
10 frames in X, 4 frames in Y (total 40 frames, 9 degrees per frame)
So if the line is 100 pixels long, you need 200x200 pixels for each frame, making an image of 2000x800 just for one ship.

Edit: and as Jowie pointed out in the ssforum topic, it would show up on other ships

not only would it show up on other ships, it would mess up the name tags of other ships so it would be hard to tell whose team other players are on.

Yeah... basically, learn to aim

Here, this works more efficiently than Samapico's suggestion. You could use his suggestion as a supplement, but with the line only reaching out to the first tick or two.
