The problem with glow in the dark darts is that you have to either paint them or apply the stickers that comes with the white darts from [insert the name of the gun who has slipped my mind; I'm too lazy to look it up right now]. With either option you are adding weight, increasing drag and reducing the viability of the darts.
With shots being as precious as they are, people are unlikely to want to do anything that will make their attacks less effective. It's a cool idea, but I think with the fact that people won't actually be shooting that much, people won't really need to worry too much about ammunition recovery as one shot will kill almost anyone, so the round can be recovered shortly after firing.
And shining a light in the dark will likely pick up on the neon orange color anyway...
