Thread: Idea for squad leader skill
The concept is great, but I think your over complicating things. Just give the SL the ability to see each mission waypoint arrow, and for the love of Pete give us a range ticker.
Great idea though.
Does anyone elsethink its annoying when you have a group with 10 people in it all with 2 destroy missions and your trying to run from 1 to the next and someone is saying hey mine is 100m west, or I can see one of mine on that hill etc etc.As far as I am awareyou can'temail a mission WP to someone else. Well my idea is for SL's to be able to recieve mission WP's from members of his squad. With this you can see all the WP's and how far out they are, you can methodically plot a course around the area completing missions in an efficent manner instead of criss crossing the land in a semi random way.
This idea could be expanded to give WP ranges under the arrows on the screen, or listing the WP's in the datapad by range, or direction. It could even be set up so that if you have say 15 WP's stored for missions then you give them an order to be done in. Only 1 WP at a time is activated, when that particuler mission is finished then the next WP in line will activate. Kind of like going A ---> B ----> C etc etc.
Would like other SL's feedback on this please.
A complicated solution is to have everyone guesstimate the waypoints by using the world map(move the mouse to the point of the orange mission marker) then everyone tell you theres and you make your own waypoints there. This will let you see the the general area of all the missions. Just run to your next waypoint and have people tell you what the actual target is then.

yes there is a way to see the other people's way points...
have them tell you the way points....then you type in /waypoint 214 -1234, or whatever the cords are. then you can see that waypoint.....only with a blue arrow.

As far as I know all it says is 1503m North or whatever, it doesnt say the location of your missions as a X,Y location.
