Need to show current altitude so they can be used effectively. Right now you have no idea if you are sitting on the ground or 30 feet in the air.

And WHY are they so small???

Because just maybe... just maybe... not everyone is playing in fullscreen using 1280x1024 or larger?

I still don't see how this is a point. Zeplins have no way to display how high they are actually in the sky...

Huh? Are you asking for something like how high they are above sea level? The only important measurement would seem to be how high they are above whatever surface is below them, and that's measurable by the disparity between you and your shadow.

Last I checked, the shadow was removed for some unexplained reason.

Edit:

As you can see, I'm at maximum altitude, and you can clearly see, there is no shadow.

Yeah, you've got a point. It looks like your on the floor but your at high altitude.

I was replying to the "WHY are they so small" question you asked.

But I do agree that there should be a better way to tell how high you are.
