Tracer type
 

Could such streaks as exist behind BF2 planes in flight (The translucent thin whitish ones) be used in conjunction with the glowing tips for the representation of tracers from aircrafts? I think that would be closest to reality than the long dashes…

not a bad idea, though it might have an effect on FPS. I know that some of my experiments in bf1942 lead to some serious lag issues when I was adding the "smoke" that followed the tracers... but it looked so damn cool.
