It's annoying to stop and type the numbers.

Far too many steps. It's very easy to read your current position from the compass/map and type it on groupchat. However, it would be even easier to type %CP or some other combination for your current position.

Yeah I have tried to get a %variable for the current waypoint... but the devs just dont listen.


Fun little tidbit. Try the %variables of %DI and %DF

I've had a loading screen tell me that if the group leader makes a waypoint everyone can see it - this is of course rubbish, but squad leaders at least should get this ability - /grpWaypoint or something creates a waypoint that everyone in the group can see immediately instead of having to type the numbers in.
