Feature Request: Squad Hex Improvements
New, WishlistPublic

Description

As of right now only the squad leader can view specific details about squad members. Aside from being marked with a white hexagon, there is no real distinction for anyone else in the squad. I propose adding a system that shows an icon in the center of that white hexagon what class/role that squad mate is for easier identifying (i.e. Medics get a cross inside theirs, Repair specialists get a wrench, Rifleman one bullet, Autorifleman a chain of bullets, etc. etc.). I believe this would greatly improve team synergy in servers that allow it. On top of this, I propose another implementation. As of standard patch, Any team members that get assigned a different "color" do not know their color, only squad lead can see this. It may be helpful if others knew what fireteam someone is assigned to within their squads, to do this, the squad hexagon should turn whichever color the squad leader orders that fireteam member to be. For instance, if Squad Lead makes Seven Fireteam Red, his hex color should change accordingly. In larger squads this would make sticking to a fireteam or even a combat buddy that much easier with color identification.
