Your next step is to learn bit of python.
As you may noticed already, buttons has con commands like this:
Code: Select all
hudBuilder.setButtonNodeConCmd "rcon spotted ifv" 0So what you need is to define your own rcon commands, then write a python module with rcon command handler that will catch rcon commands, parse them, create spawner and spawn objects with needed map icons. Take note that you need to preload your marker spawners in Factions/spawners/spawners_common.con so server would not crash when you'll try spawn them.

Time to give up and respawn.

Good evening,[R-CON]rPoXoTauJIo
First of all I thank you for your attention and for the information. I realize that the second stage is very advanced and complex.
One question, what is the .py module of the existing icons (sniper, tank ...)?
Thank you!

It's lying around realitygameplay, realitymarkers, realitycore etc, but all those are complied. That's why you have to write your one.

Good Morning,
Ok, I understood... I have to create a module exclusively for this project.
One question, could you help to complete this project, or know someone who wants to help develop the module?

Very nice, I really like that you've added a way to mark firendly supplies.
I'm not a huge fan of micromanaging commanders during public games, but I can definately see this being useful in some situations.

I'm glad you liked this project.
I play as a commander, and within the strategy and guidance I provide to the squad leaders, these marking would make my job easier.
I hope one day something similar will be implemented officially.
