What if the command console gave you a new HUD element showing your entire team with full damage display paper doll and loadout?

Would probably need some other command-related features, or come bundled with bonus module slots, but being able to see your whole team, and relay key infomation where required, is a great asset to any commander.

Pretty much anything would give it some actual value. Right now it's fairly useless, especially versus it's weight. If it was a module it'd be decent - that would be my suggestion for it if it is kept the same.

What does it even do right now? I've been thinking about spending a million c-bills on one, but keep not doing so. Given that there's no in Lab descriptions - I have no idea what it actually does.

^ I've tested it on several of my mechs (including my commando w/ ecm[******* only had 1 ton left for weapons]) and if it does something i really can't tell.

Can't you set waypoints for teamates. ECM probably blocks this too though.

You just have to volunteer for commander to do that, does not require a command console. also changes your name color in chat if you volunteer for commander.
