ok, took the time to fully make a radar file.
even has nice little notes to help you guys find things

if you want to hide all animal icons, then simply go to the GAME group and in that first line change showicon=true to showicon=false
you can add the showicon command to any line you wish
as well as shapes, show and order...
you can even make an entire group one color by simply removing the color from each line and putting it in the group name line.

found this for hare in my radar

Code: Select all

<marker pattern="gfx/kritter/marchhare/.+" shape="up" text="March Hare" color="#ffbbff" />

crow goodies, boys

Code: Select all

<marker match="gfx/terobjs/items/crowfeather" text="Crow Feather" color="#000666" show="true"/>

ah, my own has a blanket entry for dropped items:

Code: Select all

<marker pattern="gfx/terobjs/items/.+" show="true"/>

cool, are these blankets low priority, being overwritten by more specific tags?

the radar picks the first match/pattern in the file, NOT the most specific match/pattern.
Therefore, if you put blankets in, you should put them towards the bottom of the file, when more specific rules have had their chance to trigger.
This also means, for the record, that your hidden objects should go at the top of the file, to make sure they are not overruled by a less specific visibility rule.

thanks a lot, had a problem with this once, will try again

Is there a way to pick certain single items out of those groups and just make them false without having to making a whole new group?

yes, just add show="false" to the specific entry.
In case this is a question about the radar tab in the options menu, where you can toggle groups on-the-fly: no, it's not possible. Make a new group for items you want to toggle regularily.
