mgm Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hey guys, I just want to make it clear who left which comment on the map... Currently if a player named JohnDoe leaves a map mark with the tag 'home', it is displayed as 'home' without mentioning the player's name. What I would like to do is to also include the nickname so that in the same example the map mark would be "[JohnDoe]: home". Please can anyone tell me how to do this? Thanks in advance!

0 js2k6 Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 I would also be very interested in how to do this, we have an issue with players marking other peoples bases on the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 mgm Posted July 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 Its possible and featured in CCGs servers. Thanks for the addition but as you know modifications made and locked in closed source commercialized servers is not accessible to community and in my opinion useless. I hope someone can tell us how to do it so any interested server admin can add it to their server... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Gr8 Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 any where in your mission file. then call it from your init.sqf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ToejaM Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 Create a .sqf file with that script in. Create a folder called MapMarkings and place the newly created .sqf inside. At the very bottom of your init.sqf add this: // Map Marker Script execVM "MapMarkings\MapMarkerTitling.sqf"; Edit as necessary. Great little script!

Question
mgm
Hey guys,
I just want to make it clear who left which comment on the map...
Currently if a player named JohnDoe leaves a map mark with the tag 'home', it is displayed as 'home' without mentioning the player's name.
What I would like to do is to also include the nickname so that in the same example the map mark would be "[JohnDoe]: home".
Please can anyone tell me how to do this? Thanks in advance!
