Will we have the option to switch radar display types?
John CreweLead Technical Designer
No. So if your ship has a 2D radar, it has a 2D radar. If your ship has a 3D radar, it has a 3D radar. However, in the future, what we're going to be doing is using render-to-texture to essentially project and record the 3D radar style and display it on a 2D image. So rather than having to maintain two completely different radar systems, it's one just rendered in two different ways. So flat or 3D.
