Icon Settings:

You can change your icon types and distances by typing these variables in console in game the command syntax is:
mp_dotrange [FRIENDLY|FOE] [DEFAULT] [COLOR<km>] [DOT <km>] [RANGE <km>] [TYPE <km>] [ID <km>] [NAME <km>]
FRIENDLY or FOE keywords define which party the following parameters apply to the aircraft of the viewer’s army, or the aircraft of the hostile armies.

The following keys define
the distance at which the appropriate icon is enabled:

COLOR: The distance at which icons take the color of the inbound plane’s army.
Icons farther away will be drawn in grey.

DOT: The distance at which the “dot” plane marker becomes visible.

RANGE: The distance at which the distance measurement appears in the icon.

TYPE: The distance at which the airplane model or model family becomes visible.

ID: The distance at which the tactical number is visible.

NAME: The distance at which the aircraft’s pilot name is visible (if it is driven by a
human pilot).
mp_dotrange DEFAULT restores the Pacific Fighters predefined icon setup. mp_dotrange run without parameters prints the current icon setup ranger, which may be issued by both client and server.
(e.g mp_dotrange FRIENDLY COLOR 0.1 DOT 15 RANGE 5 TYPE 0.1 ID 0.1 NAME 2.5
This will give you friendly info at Aircraft dot at 15km range at 5km Pilot
name 2.5km all other at 100metres



Additional icon options

Three more options were added for mp_dotrange command:
ALTICON,

ALTCOLOR,

ALTSYMBOL.

ALTICON sets the maximum distance when the icon will be shown. ALTCOLOR sets the color of
the icon.

ALTSYMBOL sets the one character symbol which will be shown as icon.

These settings only kick in when old style icons are not shown, i.e. when distance of COLOR, TYPE, NAME, ID and RANGE are smaller than the distance to the aircraft.

Example:
mp_dotrange FRIENDLY DOT 25.0 COLOR 0.1 RANGE 0.1 TYPE 1.0 ID 0.1 NAME 0.1 ALTICON 2.5 ALTSYMBOL + ALTCOLOR 3

This will display a symbol "+" above the aircraft between 1.0 and 2.5 km in color 3 (green).
