You raise an interesting point. The range restrictions were only added because
wild random firing tended to pick off zombies from across the map in version
1.1b. I don't care for the idea of you being able to hear a zombie but not
reach it with a gun, so I was going to make each gun fire at

I'm personally against the perfect targeting beeps. You're basically then
playing a game of listen for the beep, rather than center and accuracy.
I might be willing to embrace a beep for when a bullet would hit a zombie,
but not one for perfect target.

I agree with kay about the targiting solution beeps, especially when the
zombi sounds are so good, however I do think a range indicator is needed.
so how about a compensation. pressing a key (I'd suggest g), activates your

Once I post the next update it will include the fix for the gun range bug.
Once fixed, if you can hear the zombies, odd are your gun can reach them.

On that note have you thought about having wireless on the server

Just because of all the devices that run in that frequency range, I'd
suggest against running it wirelessly, although it could be a workable
option if you're running an 802.11 N network.
