Advanced Tactical Nametags

Summary

Advanced Tactical Nametags improves player and AI identification with rank insignias, AI indicators, squad information, callsigns and contextual nametags.

Description

Advanced Tactical Nametags is a lightweight and immersive nametag enhancement focused on improving battlefield identification, especially for AI-controlled soldiers.
The mod extends the vanilla Arma Reforger nametag system instead of replacing it with a completely separate HUD. This allows it to preserve vanilla visibility behavior, faction relationships and contextual identification while adding useful tactical information.
Features:
Rank insignia displayed directly on nametags 
Improved identification of AI-controlled soldiers 
Optional AI indicator 
Character rank information 
Squad and callsign information 
Character role information when available 
Contextual details when looking directly at a unit 
Different information levels depending on distance 
Separate visibility distances for players and AI 
Friendly-faction checks 
Uses vanilla character identities and faction rank data 
Uses vanilla localized strings whenever available 
Preserves the original nametag system 
Designed to avoid unnecessary HUD clutter 
Lightweight implementation with cached data and controlled update intervals 
Configurable through JSON 
The goal is to make soldiers feel like identifiable members of an organized unit instead of anonymous characters, while maintaining the tactical and immersive style of Arma Reforger.
Particularly useful for Conflict, PvE, Game Master scenarios and missions with large numbers of AI units.
Advanced Tactical Nametags — Better AI identification. Clearer squads. Stronger battlefield awareness.
