tank without GPS on the map

Description

When in a helicopter/plane/tank, vehicle's position is always shown on the map, even with "show friendlies" disabled and in a vehicle without a GPS.
It would be nice if this "localisation" were related to the vehicle being equipped with a GPS or not, based on a difficulty setting (or not?).

I'd say add a difficulty setting.
Even if the vehicle has GPS, a very precise map marker is different than just gps coordinates.

agreed. try to edit out but is hardcoded

The same thing appear in all tracked vehicles without GPS in RHS mods. They can't fix it. Because it hard coded in base class of all tracked vehicles.
