Indicating "Zones" on player Maps

Hey all, first off, amazing mod, took awhile to learn how to use it well but I got a grasp now. One question I had... I'm developing an "RP" section in my server where raiding isn't allowed, I'd love to indicate this on the map for players when they hit "G". 

What would you suggest for this? I've seen in other servers people using the Vending machine icons to state PVP zones, seems daunting to do ever wipe tho. 

bump, hoping to get some eyes on this before the weekend. <3 

any advice to achieve this would rock (even if it's just spawning an entity)

Use Rustedit and place a Monument Marker in the location

I'm trying to stay away from RustEdit as I'm sticking to the Community server guidelines. Though I did find that entity.spawn vending_mapmarker works really well, though... I just can't edit the mapmarker to be green or with a "name" on hover. So I'm trying to build a script for this as the prefab locations seem to have the ability to allow this, just no on server side commands.

Is there a way to make those markers transparent or just have the ouitline only??

Can you use Zone Manager on a Community server ?

Can you use Zone Manager on a Community server ?

Yep - checkout Canada 420 | No KoS 

 

Actively using ZoneManager and that's it, seems to apply in-game commands as executables in a nice GUI. That's really it

try this there is allready a plugin for
https://umod.org/plugins/marker-manager

Will this be allowed on a Community server? I'm trying really hard to stick to the community guidelines, kind of vague with some mods. By the looks of it, the marker is custom which means it's fully modded to allow a marker on a map - this will change the server to Modded vs Community



Merged post

I was able to use spawn.entity vending_mapmarkers to apply these map markers without the vending machine, kind of tricky... you need to legit be looking at the ground to apply it directly to your location on the map. But it's working...

Next question; how do i edit these entities valuables? for instanty, I should be able to provide a name and color change based on the prefab workings. Perhaps I need a python script for this now
