Squad Leaders with Orange Text

Redamare · Post by **Redamare** » 2009-02-14 20:34

I Think it could help for better Whole Team work If the Squad leaders Can Text in the Team chat Talking to Eachother ..... Orange Text Can be used to Inicate Squad leader in Team Text But Possibly Just their names are Orange in Squad Chat.. It could help a Bunch With Team comunication..

Before Squad leaders would say ... Squad 2 Can you help us and That squad might not see that Text...

Now if the Squad leader Says Can you help us with orange Text it is a whole lot more visible to other Squad leaders....

In the BF2 DEMO if you insert " |ccc|_ " Before your Name or any Text you Type It comes up Orange. I am not sure how the coding is involved but it might be an interesting Concept

ADDED THINGS I DIDNT THINK ABOUT

. This would also help for pilots who don't pay attention to text. Then they would be more likely to see new orders from squad leaders and adjust.

Dude, I think that you should unbreak your Caps lock button for both suggestions

But I kinda like this idea if possible

VOIP and the text is hardcoded I think.

And stop using CAPS for your titles.

Unneeded, SL's dont use text too much if there is a CO, and without one they barley do. Its something you wouldnt see and as Crazy said, VOIP and text is hardcoded.

i think it is VERY much needed, but yeah probably not possible.

well if commanders can have yellow text than i think it might be possible...and needed

LtSoucy · Post by **LtSoucy** » 2009-02-14 22:03

the yellow CO text is from vBF2, PR didnt add it.

Conman51 · Post by **Conman51** » 2009-02-14 22:11

yea but maybe they can make SL like a co position so it gives it colored text

That is a nice idea, but don't think it's possible.

TBH, There is rarely a CO. Until the system gets fixed, there will continue to be no CO. I have worked numerous time with other squads with no CO to coordinate us. I think this is a great idea, and anyone who has played other bf2 mods like Sandbox, know that changing the color of words is possible. This would also help for pilots who don't pay attention to text. Then they would be more likely to see new orders from squad leaders and adjust.

Mumble and/or its integration into future PR builds.

AFAIK you can change every word into anything you like. Text is not hardcoded.

I'd like this badly, Blue I'snt a really attention grabbing color, Orange etc. should grab attention of pilots and other squads better.
