This suggestion already existed on the old forums. Back then it was written by Dvicious and it gained quite some support. I'm only recreating it, because I haven't seen it on these forums and because I believe it's a good idea.

There are various map settings that you only notice once you start playing a map. Examples are changed gravity, wind, collision, nightmode or the soulmate setting. The last one actually has an icon already.

In my opinion the best place for these icons would be in the top bar of the game. I made some icons to illustrate what it is I'd like to see. As of 16-12-2012 this idea has been included into my other idea regarding the user interface. Read about it in Topic-149526

I think it would be very helpful. However, it'll be obvious for some whether something is collision or soulmate or not.
But I do like the Wind (the icon is nice) and the gravity as they aren't very noticible at times to some.

Good concepts, but not important :( /no support

How is it not important...no support because it's not important, great logic

Anyways, I like the idea about putting the wind icons. I usually I have a hard time telling if there's even wind unless it's really strong. Support!

Soulmate and collision aren't really necessary. Although, the wind and gravity icon seem useful. /Support.

Well sydo and tig have better things to do so thats why the logic is great, you need to think of the admins buisness to.

While I agree, the fact that a heart already shows up in the top left corner of every soulmate map implies that they already have a system for it - I want it expanded and expanding an existing feature usually isn't as much work as creating something from scratch ^_^

Yaay.
Supports this.
The idea is great ^-^

I remember seeing another thread, like this, and there was a flashlight for nightmode maps. Could that be something aswell?

Definitely! I left it out because night mode is clearly visible right from the start and because it's something that has to be added through XML-editing rather than enabling it in the map editor.

I love the wind icon and that one in particular I believe would be useful.

support nice idea :D

Thanks, although I'm sure that if this is going to be implemented, they'll make their own icons.

I like this suggestion. Support yo!

pwetty suggestion<333

I support :3

Meanwhile, updated my thread on the interface of the game to include this idea. You can find it here - Topic-149526

Gravity Buttons would be useful.
