Post by The Red Baron »

if so, it would be helpful if you posted exactly or roughly what your setting is at

Mine is set to to the right with 4 tick marks showing to the left.

so i use it.

I set mine to about 1/4th so my rapidly deterorating eyes can see the things that have the power to blow me up.

since im almost blind i used to set it at maximum lenght! :) I played like that for more than 6 months

Now (i bought new eyes) i am trying to put it in the middle (6th tack)...its a bit more precise maybe but its hard for me...
one good point for the max lenght is that u can see better if a shot has hit a pyramid or not. If the lenght is at minimum u wont see any difference i guess.

I have 4 tick marks showing on the left. I also increased shot size a tiny bit so that there is a small dot on the end of shots, it makes it very easy for me to see them and their direction.

Shot length 6 ticks from the left, shot size 3 ticks from the left. It’s much easier on my eyes this way.
