BL1P 35 Posted May 20, 2014 I have done some searching but haven't found anything. Does anyone have a script handy to replace any player placed map markers with the same marker and text but with a text prefix of name player in multiplayer senarios. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eggbeast 3673 Posted May 20, 2014 real basic in evo we have FARP's named after a player like this: _mssg = format["%1's FARP",(name player)]; _medmark = createMarker [_mark, _pos]; _medmark setMarkerShape "ICON"; _medmark setMarkerType "b_hq"; _medmark setMarkerColor "ColorGreen"; _medmark setMarkerText _mssg; _medmark setMarkerSize [0.5, 0.5]; but that ain't what you mean is it Blip? a dynamic "marker watching" script that edits people's markers after creation? or some kind of eventhandler that knows people are making a marker and adds some text to theirs sounds like a great idea, but it may need some work!

BL1P 35 Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Yer thats correct egg I am after a dynamic system that grabs a players map placed marker and replaces it with the same marker and text but with a name prefix and possibly a time stamp. Example :- I place a marker on map that says (X) ENEMY SPOTTED or (X) ORIGINAL TEXT the script would replace that marker with (X)BL1P-09:00 - ENEMY SPOTTED or (X)BL1P-09:00 - ORIGINAL TEXT I think Fluit who is working with us on this mission has done it. Just need the script from him and if its good ill post here with the results :) Works well in two ways For people playing correctly it will mark relevant information with a the players name and time marked For free weekend pubber idiots you will be able to kick the fool who marked (X) BL1P IS A DICK on the map as his name will be in the prefix :) Disclaimer : I am a dick !
