<div class="IPBDescription">Flags to the right of the name, or left or wherever</div>Hello
i dont think this could be usefull, but it would be cool, to be able to "carry" your nations flag next to your name at the scoreboard so they can see where are you from. this could be set up in the options menu.
[edit] i found a reason how this could be usefull: for a country like Hungary there are very few players and we dont know every single hungarian player, and if they dont find another hungarian player they soon stop ns coz they think they are the only one playing it, and if they would see a hungarian flag on the scoreboard they would know they are not alone, so they wouldnt stop ns.
[edit] not at the place of the const/serverops/etc icon, next to it(if they get implanted)
[update] Due to ask i suggest that it should be able to disable that function.
[update] i like spanish ppl

    Good idea.
    I can't see how anyone would have something against that.
    Also it's reasonably easy to implement.

    Actually there are some current NS servers that do that. One of the servers I admin on, used to do it, but I think they disposed of it. Im not sure why. Was on IAM school of darwinism.

    It would be a cool idea, but I think whats more important is seeing how the new scoreboard will work for others once 3.2 is released

    hm , or modify it so it would be like the flag isnt on the scoreboard, its on the shoulder of the marine (i know this is a modeller's nightmare 50 different marine modell, but the models would only be different in the flags on their shoulder so you cant use a model, but different textures which is different only in the flag part, which is not that big)

    so it wouldnt be like there is only one nation fighting the aliens

    Yea just make it different sprites. It's a really cool idea but it wouldn't probably work as intended. People will notice flags and start TKing for various reasons. It would be great storywise but to many people are idiots.

    this has the potential to bring people together, but could also create a lot of racism.
