mmutze Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Suggestion Name: Displaying friends on the map Suggestion Description: Displaying the location of friends on the in game map Any example images: Why should it be added?: It would make it easier to navigate together with steam friends to, for instance, look what exit on an intersection you have to take to go towards the location of your friend. The green dot for steam friends on the navigation is awesome. Would be nice to be able to display them on the normal map as well. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SprinterFS Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 It works on world map as well, but only if you zoom in very closely to your location. Global tracking of friends (or just any user playing on our servers) can be done on ets2map.com, but the suggested feature is still good to have for a quick access. 1 -- One banned troll means one sad troll.

Mole Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 The idea is great, but useless at the same time. Because for this to work you would need to be on the same server, same time. Even then you could just ask a friend where he is because you can see on steam when your friends are playing this game. And last but not least I highly doubt it would be possible to implement in the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_.Queen Rosalie._ Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 -1 there really isn’t any need, all that is required is to ask your online friends if they are playing and if so, where they are and on which server. What would be useful in a way is to have those shown as friends to show up as a different coloured marker and name tag, just for easier identification, but to live track them etc, it’s not as easy as it seems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 the idea is creative, but such a thing now that I think I don't need navigation enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 No, is actually useless. You can use ets2map.com or https://traffic.krashnz.com/ to see traffic/friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viviana [CH] Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I like the idea basically, but as already said, you can use the tools that are already there. Other tools, like SpedV or others, do show where your friends are, too. That my be an option for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameronA Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 This idea sort of already exists, where as you add a friend on Steam and they will come up a different color to all other players on the F5 map, see the TAB menu for that color change. Also if you wanted the global map where you can see all players with the 0 camera, admins only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntackz Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I think the present feature with steam is good. there is no point in adding this feature. If you know your friend is playing you can message him and ask his location and quick travel through garage.Its just simple not hard. I think this suggestion is not gonna happened any time soon. presently you can see any member or friend around you until 650 meters only.presently only Game mods can track complete map. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruckersNEW-Hao Nan Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I think the current function with steam is good. This feature was not added. If you know your friend is you can message him play, ask him where he is and go through the garage quickly. It's just easy. I do not think this proposal will happen any time soon. Now you can see any member or friend around you until it's only 650 meters. Currently only the game plug-in can track the completion of the map. To do a sacred thing, one must work hard, and I know some rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The HitMan Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 There is a feature of which on the GPS/Map the dot is a different colour depending on your preference, do you mean like seeing your friend on the map when you are far away from each other?

Carrera18 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 yeah, I've been wanting for a long time however, the city density should be measured. they should not be available for FPS in dense areas. I hope we will not go alone in empty roads. +1 from me ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuly Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 +1. I really believe this is a great suggestion. I would love to see it added! This way, it will be easier to see where our friends are, so we can find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lappland Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I believe that this idea had been use in game and you can see your friend with a Green Point. And I think if you are in France and your friend is in Beyond The Sea, you will find him very difficult. And you can use Steam to ask your friend where is he/she. So i think this command will not be accept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osetaen Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Creative idea. It will work to find our friends more easily in the game. I think it can be added to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*ACC* 007 FanTian Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I don't agree, because you and your friends can ask about the server, and your friends also have special points in the game to separate from those who are not friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
