Anyway to always show a marker/icon/blip on the radar? - llama - 20.11.2010

It's for racing, when a player joins a race I have it display a map icon at the starting position. However this marker doesn't show up until the player gets near. I've tried to have a bot do the same but to the same outcome. Anybody have any suggestions and or solutions?

I'm using Incognito's streamer if that helps, thanks.

If you fully read my post you would see that, map icons are what I am using. The problem is that they don't show on the player's radar unless the player gets near them.

Incognito's streamer is made to show only 1 checkpoint at a time. You need to be closest to a checkpoint for it to show. You can't have 2 checkpoints showing at the same time. (I think) So thats why you would need to be close for it to appear.

I know this, but I was wondering if there was anyway to make a single marker (not multiple) appear regardless of the player's range to it.

Don't use Incognito's streamer for the Checkpoints, just use default SetPlayerCheckpoint

Not really an option, as I'm using checkpoints for more than just racing.

I meant for that 1 checkpoint that you wanted to be seen all across the map.

Seems to work, thanks.
