Just need actual drawing on the map. Unit markers SUCK ! Can xbox players see the mouse movement aswell or just PC players ?

tropic hatch Dec 31, 2024, 4:14 AM

#

Everyone can see it, xbox players can't draw it yet, I'm gonna add it to the RB button tomorrow so yall can point too

It was so much easier. I think that stuff will come when they introduce Commanding

We encountered this problem yesterday. We also had vPad_test-mod in use.

tropic hatch Jan 2, 2025, 5:23 PM

#

We encountered it too with VPAD, which makes me think it's an issue there

#

Probs just not compatible

Would fit in the scope of ACE Finger. Only things that are missing compared to ACE3 is configurability and the name of the player that is pointing.

No, it's not. You can reproduce it without any other mods. It happens to players that have the map closed while someone else is pointing on the map.

Huh

#

Okay I'll investigate thank you for the report

vital stag Jan 4, 2025, 5:42 PM

#

Yes this happened to me also and caused anyone who opened the maps game to crash

red citrus Jan 7, 2025, 10:30 PM

#

Any chance of console controls being added soon ❤️

#

stuck markers is still present... making the map extremely laggy...

#

and while the map is open, it only shows the marker when someone is pointing, the moment you close and re-open the map it will show all the previous markers

Update 1.0.2

Fixed map markers staying on map on dedicated servers if you didn't have your map open.

#

Is this fix applicable to the issue above with the 'ghost pointer'?

tropic hatch Jan 22, 2025, 10:12 PM

#

Yes

tropic hatch Jan 23, 2025, 5:43 AM

#

Update 1.0.5

Fixed bug that would cause markers to stay around if more than one person pointed at once
Made it so only one person can point at once in a 10m radius, this is due to how map markers are replicated/causes stuttering when more than one person is pointing.

#

On dedicated server, it seems to duplicate
But I think it's a vanilla bug with markers on dedicated servers

You're correct about vanilla bug: https://feedback.bistudio.com/T188524

Very cool mod! I was thinking about a map sharing feature, to extend on that interaction idea. Normally not all soldiers have a map themselves, so i thought it would be cool, if you are close to the person, which has its map opened, you can have a look on it to. Maybe up to 3 players max, close enough to the map owner. What do you guys think?

Yeah I've tried to correct the issue as best as I can, the markers literally delete themselves now so idk why this keeps happening

#

As of rn until the map marker system is fixed I'm going to have to try a different approach to it. Going to look into just making it a widget.
