Permanent markers.

[Death_dx]

Alright so we have landing zone markers and some new spotting markers, which is great. However how about taking this a step further and allowing the placement of armor/AA/apc/bunker/rally/firebase markers that are permanent until another one is placed. Naturally this could be confusing have 54 markers down at the same time so restriction to only SL's/coms with officer kits or some such combination would be nice. Alternatively the removal time of spotting could just be increased to accomplish this.

The point I'm trying to make is that usually without someone within minimap range, (in a vehicle) that armor you spotted is going unnoticed. So that poor blackhawk is just going to try landing infront of him anyway.

theres probrably a limit to how many can be on the many map, (and how hardcaoded your suggestion is)

Hehe, can't believe I didn't see that coming.

Probably there is a limit but, aren't there around 9 LZ markers? I don't see how it's hardcoded, they were able to add several new marker (see:Map Markers - Project Reality Wiki)

All that's needed for this is either permanent spotting markers, or extending the time for spotting vehicles+spawn points markers to disappear.

Didn't find a way to change the spotting marker expire time.

So that's a no then?

Well that was my easy way alternative to my real suggestion which is permanent markers for tanks/anti air etc. placeable by commander or/and SL's, so I don't think thats a no to that...
