"They didn't use standard BI calculations for UI positions, so all UI elemnts moves on different monitor resolutions."

what do you mean?

BI made calculations for UI to be at the same position on any monitor, here they are:
x = number *(((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 40) + (safezoneX);
y = number *((((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 1.2) / 25) + (safezoneY + safezoneH - (((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 1.2));
w = number * ( ((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 40);
h = number *((((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 1.2) / 25);

Where is "number" - any coefficient. Just check any BI config with UI elements, all of them uses the same calculations and only "number" changes.

above formule is only valid if you want to have rescalable & movable ui
check i.e. RscOptics_sos

it's fine. if you found specific resolution where it doesn't work then report it. otherwise I will close ticket soon.

ps. I removed ")" sign since it was leftover from debug dir thing (removed CA_Heading)

The ")" is actually 000 but you can see only half of the last zero. It is a heading display.

Oh, you mean that it is a feature and any artillery will not have heading display but only elevation. But then how will it be possible to shot artillery without artillery computer? Heading display is a must have feature :)

compass on map or in hand?

If it shouldn't be there then it is ok. Just wanted to let you know about that. Thought that was bug. Please close.
