PingTweaks

PingTweaks improves the appearance and behavior of pings.

• Pings are not broadcast to other players without a modifier key
• Pings may be created as persistent with a modifier key (persistent broadcast allowed)
• A player may cancel their ping by pinging it again (not networked)
• Map marker pings show the marker text, if any
• Pings are sent and map markers are created with reasonably accurate elevation values
• Pings show distance in meters
• Transient ping duration is adjustable
• In-world ping text color is adjustable
• Pings from other players may be pinned by double-clicking on them (persistence optional)

PingTweaks is client-side but works better when all clients have it.
