ETS2 Map + Steam

[[ITS] Sima 13]

Suggestion Name: Enhance ETS2 Map with basic Steam functions

Suggestion Description:

Allow a right or left-click on player dots, to use basic steam functions like:

• add/remove this player to/from my steam friend list
• show players steam profile (opens a steam browser)
• show a quick info: how many hours this player played ets2

Any example images:

 

Why should it be added?:

• easier to make friends and report players
• easier to evaluate if a player is new to the game / or experienced

Could be useful. 

[TrademarkGamer 869]

Could be useful, but I guess if in the wrong hands can be abused

[Zyder 304]

I agree with Trademark, could be a useful idea for players, but could easily be abused by trolls. Mixed feeling about this one tbh.

[StuartD 565]

Can I ask how it could be abused?

[Flashylights 76]

^ I got that question too.... and it could be usefull

[[ITS] Sima 13]

Perhaps it provides an easy way to friend a lot of people in short time.

Considering to not add steam friend feature would be okay, too.

[OriginalDoubleO 210]

This would be really useful , I like it!

[Jeezyn 37]

This would be really useful  !

[Smalley 2826]

I mean it could be useful an all but whats the point of using it when the max distance allowance on the map is 600m, we won't really get to see other people that much on the map and most of the time we're driving when we see people. 

 

Neutral but could be useful

[darkneon2002 87]

the server knows where everyone is, it just doesn't show it to us.

this could definitely be programmed and I like the idea when the "add friend" is removed or when it can be disabled.

[Smalley 2826]

I like it as it basically something which Need For Speed has.

[London Truckers.FM 853]

Like the idea, although the information is already available via tab menu (steam profile etc) I feel like this would be a nice addition but could be hard to implement in-game...  Although I feel like this could be a great idea for www.ets2map.com

[Smalley 2826]

Could also be a great idea if we could copy the steamID64 to a clipboard for example you left click on the steamID and it will automatically copy it for you so you don't have to waste your time just looking for their profile

[DestroyCode 15]

Nice editing skills, +1

Nice editing skills, +1

Basicly its paint.net, nothing special about that

[Astarte 52]

Would be very useful to have in game +1

[Csinc005 94]

Love The Idea!

[ExilevRandall 12]

+1 would be a good idea 

[heyhococo 1376]

Great idea! Would be useful if you know where someone went but couldn't remember their name. +1 from me.

May I suggest also expanding the ets2map so if you press the "M" key it'll show all players on the map (Like on ets2map.com)?

[The Imaginative Lad 774]

Like the idea, although the information is already available via tab menu (steam profile etc) I feel like this would be a nice addition but could be hard to implement in-game...  Although I feel like this could be a great idea for www.ets2map.com

Would implementing ets2map into the game be possible? As an overlay. For example, pressing m brings up the ets2 normal map but pressing tab+m brings up the ets2map.com map. Like a web browser but only for ets2map.

 

Anyway that is a +1 from me.

[Archer 2]

Its not need:

show players steam profile (opens a steam browser)
show a quick info: how many hours this player played ets2

Because It is implemented in the TAB-menu. 

[TheVitoszPl 5]

Still it would be useful to track the player down if you want  And how would a player get abused by it ?

[Guest Unn4r]

Interesting idea, and I'm quite functional for the introduction of such improvements

[UrbanPretzle 4]

Great idea, allows you to figure out which blue blob is who around you!
