Team flag markers should show for all team flags

Open The-Noah opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Right now sometimes it is quite hard to know where the enemy team flag is, adding the feature would make it easy to always know where you should be going.

Would be for 2.6 so updating doesn't provide an unfair advantage.

We have two marker types: normal that shows up at the top compass, and enhanced that shows up in the 3D view. If we do this, do we want all flags to use both, or would we want the other teams' flags to only use the normal markers?

I think both would be best.

The question is, should this be done? Is knowing where the enemy flag is something that should be automatic? Maybe this should be deferred to a plugin, so server owners could decide what kind of support they want to provide.

I'd be fine with flags being completely hidden, but as long as it's shown on the radar I think it should be shown on the HUD.
