Map Tracing/layers concept

[Uncle Bad Touch 1]

Hello and how do you do?

 

So me and buddy are playing a quick op on Lythium and buddy is new. He asks if there are different types of maps when you hit 'M' (standard bind) like climate, topographical, road maps, etc etc. 

 

That all got me thinking. Is there a way you could implement something like this? Like a little drop down that displays "Climate map" and you can hit your default action key and it switches to a climate map (obviously would have to be done the the creator and could be stored in the mod folder).

Or would it be possible to do something like traces? Have multiple layers with different markings and the sort on them. So maybe Alpha 1-1 are on layer 1 and Alpha 2-1 are on layer 2 but command has access to all of them and can plan out different marks for different squads. This would be an excellent thing to have in large scale milsim communities and could even be applicable in things such as life servers. 

 

Anyways if you have any insight leave a reply.
