Squad leader meta-marks

I sometimes confuse the specialist for the squad leader.

I believe from a coding perspective this is possible through implant codes. Loyalty implants at the start of a round show a similar icon, so I'd say imant each sl upon joining with a custom implant with a symbol. The next piece is to modify sec HUD code to attach it to a different item like helmets or armor and make its only the sl icon that shows.

There is a better way through the antag system, but this is probably an easier way.

definitely for this when there is the rare occasion i am a marine it is hard to realise who the man i charge is so +1 from me.

Could be useful for new players but it's easy to spot SL by their armor or helmet.

Yeah the only slight differences you can tell first hand identifying your Squad Leader is a specific color pattern, slight armor variation, and a little antennae.

The implant system wouldn't be a bad idea, or maybe some Sec HUD/Glasses to identify as they seem to have changed the identification squares above mob's heads.

Personally, there's usually a problem with having a squad leader as many are inexperienced or just prefer the Specialist role.

IDK. I think they may cause some confusion.

They actually work quite well.

Bravo's white on yellow contrast is a bit too low for my liking. How'd it look with black text on yellow?

I'm not allowing you to do the Black on Yellow.
