Small feature request: /nav chat command

[Zero Angel]

I was wondering if GSH could include a small new feature in BZ2, and that is to give the player the ability to change the name of new nav points simply by typing in '/nav Northern front line' -- which will give future nav beacons the default name of 'northern front line' or whatever was typed in after /nav. It doesnt seem like it would be difficult to implement, and it would be quite useful for being able to tell what a nav points to simply by reading it.

Yeah, thugs can't name navs on the field and commander can only do it in comm bunker. 

[Zero Angel]

Well, thugs can change their nav names by opening the console and typing the command:

Code Select Expand

control.satellite.name "My Nav Name"

But it's cumbersome. The BZERC addon for 1.2 allowed you to do that through the UI, but you had to hit, ESC, then click on BZERC -> Client -> Nav Name, and type in the nav name.

i could make a keyshortcut bring up the ui instead :-/

awsome.

The chatline command idea sounds wonderful really.

I'm casting my vote for this.

[AHadley]

Yeah, I agree. Sounds like a good one.

[xSSx Grizzly]

Good idea mate I like it!

I never knew you could name a nav. Can't see me ever getting the time to do it in a strat and nobody ever listens to a thing I say in mpi...

control.satellite doesn't work in multiworld as far as I am aware.  I use the following which is the multiworld variant.

network.session.csvar1 "Enter Nav Name Here"
