UGO

UGO predator

Aha, just found another interesting aspect of Google Earth / kml. Tweaking with the transparency level of various UGOs, it seems there is a treshold after which the extruded trajectory blocks the elements behind it (something that came up a while ago already). If you look at below .kmz file from the west, you'll see that the most forward UGO, which has a certain transparency, obscures the red lines behind it but keeps the green visible. Looking at the same bunch of UGOs from the east, the higher transparency of this particular UGO blocks everyting (.kmz file). What would be really cool is if the UGO surface starts acting like a mirror ;)
