Widget Request: Commander Name Tags
Posted: 12 Apr 2008, 04:57
Something so simple, is missing!
In big team games, you forget who is what color, and where they spawned.
To easily know who's commander is attacking, a nametag would be simple and useful. Yeah, it may only save half a second of glancing down at the bottom right corner of your screen, or hovering over the Com. But sometimes you need every moment.
I know, I know, I should be learning Lua and doing this myself, but, I'm lazy. Honestly.
It should work with enemy/ally commanders, but you shouldn't be able to tell if something on radar is a Commander by seeing the name tag, it'll have to be the Commander blip in order for the name tag to appear, for legitimacy.
Is it a good idea?
