FridayThe31st 6 Posted August 13 When you put a couple traps down as Jason, say in front of the phone box, the shack, or even a car and you hear the sound of one of them going off, when you open up your map how would you be able to tell which trap it was that went off? I know that the traps show up red on Jason’s map, and I figured whichever one went off usually flashes red. I’m trying to make sure that’s what happens so I can make sure I’m teleporting wherever which single trap went off. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DontZzz34 438 Posted August 13 I feel like they could’ve done a better job making a sprung trap look a lot different from an un sprung trap. They both look too similar 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustinX 7 Posted August 13 Colorblind colors for traps would have been nice but they only did it for perks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My eyes are not what they used to be either... and it is very hard to tell them apart sometimes. But I have worked around this problem by only ever trapping the fuse box... I do not have to look to know where to morph to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because today I morphed to the wrong place. I wish the traps would just change to a solid red color un sprung and when it’s sprung have it flash. That way you can actually differentiate it.

It could be something simple like "blue" for armed, and "red" for disarmed or used. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to go to the wrong trap often before my eyes got trained to seriously hone in and pinpoint which symbol looked noticeably different than the others. A different color for sprung traps could easily remedy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, anyone really can tell the difference. The issue becomes when ether stacking traps next to each other and when placed on a objective, since it's icon is also red.

Once you know what you're looking for it's easy (aside from the instances you mention). I figured a visual demonstration would help the op. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
