On the question on Position and Scale.

I think the current location is the most logical.
Higher up and it will cover part of the console.
It is a good spot but some people play on horribly small resolutions so scaling/moving would be good. Also as you said, right now it's coded to be in one spot. Maybe you could pull the current resolution and make the location -400 of what the height is and +300 for the width? I just think more flexibility is better with different resolutions and whatnot. Maybe people only want to see the top half of the SAI so they put it halfway below the bottom of the screen?

You mean something like this?

Perhaps there can be fixed positions, but also one free, that takes the position freely

1=Top, Middle
2=Bottom, Left
3=Mid, Left
4=Mid, Righ5
5=Free

The Circles will be the anchor points.

Yea, I mean, you never know what people might like and if you can make it that much more flexible then you won't have to worry about different resolutions or people's preferences. Make the user do the work customizing it :)

One function of the real 2.8.5 SAI is that it indicated in what direction(North, West, South or West) you were hurt from.
Since this information is not available for me in 2.5, this function will not be included.

Brilliant work man, really. I wouldn't bother with the hit direction. Some newer games have it but generally it adds a different dynamic to the game. When you're in war and you get hit, are you going to know what direction it came from precisely? I think hearing gunfire gives it away enough.

If I'm going to nitpick, does the Z variable really belong in the offset? Isn't that technically what scale does? :)

The positions on the sai will need to be based on percentage of screen resolution because I often switch between full screen and window mode which are different resolutions.

Positions on type 1-4 is anchored at the Circles in earlier picture, so changing resolution will not cause any problems.
For instance, my favorite location(2) is coded like this:

Code: [Select]
//2, Bottom,Left
SAIoffset.X=0+20;
SAIoffset.Y=Canvas.SizeY-((540*SAIScale)/2)-80;

Looks nice Eliz!
But question: is it also possible to play without sai and without compass?

Server admin chooses whether it's classic compass or SAI. If admin chooses SAI, the compass will be gone and it's up to you to enable/disable the SAI.

I've added the possibility to decide the Size of the SAI yourself.
For instance

SAIScale=0.5
