REA SimpleSquadMarker

SimpleSquadMarker improves squad coordination in Arma Reforger with world pings that only your squad sees. When you use the mod’s place-marker action, your character performs a brief point gesture (with a short no-fire window), the game raycasts from your view to pick a world position, and that ping is replicated on the server and sent to everyone in your group.

Each ping shows as a HUD marker with the sender’s name, fades out near the end of its lifetime, and hides when it is behind the camera. Pinging roughly the same spot again removes your current marker. A cooldown limits spam; if you try too soon, you get a small on-screen notice.

Where the vanilla commanding pipeline is available, placing a ping can trigger the “show location” style radio bark as 3D positional audio from the player, so nearby players hear it clearly.

Gameplay settings (in the gameplay tab) let you toggle squad ping visibility, adjust ping duration (1–120 seconds), and optionally reduce marker opacity while aiming down sights so pings are less distracting in a scope. Settings are saved to your profile JSON.

Requirements: Works with the base game’s group/squad system; if group data is missing, behavior falls back to the placing player only.
