Gosh, if only every mech had an unused monitor in it that such information could be displayed upon... Lol
You know all those monitors scattered inside the cockpit and they all have Heat sink information and "Autodetect No signal"?
What if 1 or 2 of those monitors was actually functional for the Seismic Sensor?
You could still see Seismic on the map but you can also see it on the monitor.
It would show you as an arrow in the centre with 3 or 4 rings outside that. 3 for a standard seismic sensor and 4 for an advanced version.
1 ring for each 60 meters increment. (62.5 meters for the Advanced version).
This way we know roughly how far away the enemies are and their clockwise direction to yourself without having to check the map.
It could even show a zoomed in clip of the map in your current location within 180/250 meters around you.
Although that part might be hard work for the developers.
Some mechs have bigger or better placed monitors. This will help give individuality to our mechs cockpits.
Right now the only difference from one mechs cockpit to another is hitboxes and the viewing angles it offers.
Someone just reminded me that we have requested that the cockpit monitors have some kind of function since closed beta.
And PGI has not even sniffed at the suggestion as far as we know....siiiiigh.
