ETS - Enemy Tagging System

Description
Summary
Concept was inspired by Ghost Recon : Wildlands.
This mod is useful for communications in a squad, and identifying targets.
Ideally best suited for Co-op, but it can be used in PVP or Singleplayer to help you keep track of enemy targets, or at least make them more apparent if they blend in.

Features
- Tag enemies by Aiming at them or holding your 'Lock Target' key.
- Option to choose between Side or Group for Tag visibility.
- Tagging a unit will reveal their rank and side. (Red = Enemy, Green = Friendly)
- Use UAV's, Binoculars, Weapons etc. (Pretty much anything that you can aim with).
- Works for all vehicles.
- Tags last 60 Seconds by default.
- Icons scale according to distance and FOV.
- Works in SP and MP (Dedicated server tested).
- 100% Client-side (Providing a module has not been placed).
- Server key included.
- Admin/Host Menu (Located in the map menu)
- 3den Editor module for mission makers. (Module will override clients)

Understood, I will try to DM him. Worst case, I could try modifying it myself. I have ideas how to do it, but I might need some guidance
Gunter Severloh  [author] 27 Jan @ 3:23pm 
You would need to ask Hortzy that if he knew how to do that and if he wants
to update the mod.

Is it possible to enable this tagging feature only if a person has a specific facewear equipped?
Artyom Kinzouya 15 Jan @ 4:28pm 
That sounds pretty logical, thanks.

Hello, all the configuration is done on the menu when you go to the map, so just
extend the amount of time the tags stay.

Hello, the mod seems excellent to me but I have a question, is there a way to leave debug mode activated permanently? so that I can see the marks during the entire game time in case the admin requires it from someone else? I share a server with two other people and sometimes they need to enter admin mode.

Thank you Gunter, I will ask Hortzy
Gunter Severloh  [author] 14 Jan @ 3:01pm 
Its a neat idea but i wouldn't know how, you would need to ask Hortzy that
as he coded the mod.

Hi,

Would you be open to creating a version that also allows your AI squad members to tag an enemy when they call it out?

The same as when you are being lead by an AI Squad Leader and he picks a target out for you and the enemy becomes highlighted?

(Commission if you accept it, I don't mind).
