COALITION Squad Interface

SUMMARY

 

As a stop-gap measure for our beloved DUI missing in Reforger, we have stepped in to create a HUD/UI additive for squads to better coordinate and players to have a quicker understanding of both their and others' statuses around them.

FEATURES

• Circular rotating on-screen compass
• Three-digit bearing
• Visible group member list with infantry and vehicle compartment roles
• Custom role icons enhanced from the default icons
• Visible stamina bar with color that changes based on stamina drain
• Support for modded weapons and factions

PLANNED FEATURES

• Assignable color team support (~75% done)
• Group names under player nametags (~25% done)
• Capability to hide the UI by default and enable with hotkey
• A squad radar which identifies friendlies in a 3d space area you, within the compass

We're still getting used to the structure and intricacies of the Enfusion engine as we transfer from ArmA3/RVEngine so feedback, spot corrections, and PRs are welcomed on github.

Hey guys. Just to update everyone if you're not in the official discord thread, we just released version 1.0.20:

• Fixed max group count to support up to 20 players
• Fixed players showing on the group list prior to spawning
• Fixed players not disappearing off the group list if they disconnect
• Added a squad management UI
• Added tiered squad management:

    • Kick players from their squad
    • Adjust squad size on the fly

A big thanks to everyone who has run the mod on their servers and provided feedback. We have now started development on improving nametags as well as the radar functionality in the center of the compass.
