In DayZ, Every one wants to improve the Mod or add something that they think is a cool idea. A few threads have appeared about the concept of tagging or leaving Graffiti like in the Left 4 Dead series (L4d 3 is coming). Some have suggested on using spray paint or a magic marker where you draw on objects like paint shop pro
Fictional: So let say that the developers were able to script in the ability (with no server memory drain) to use magic markers to write in the game.
What the mods would expect is advice giving to players or even comments or a way to track if you been here. Which is a commendable but as most players know this is DayZ, where a player would kill a new player just for their bandage, not because they need it, just because they can take it.
What would end up is a bunch of smucks insulting players or drawing body organs on dead corpses or (I cringe at this thought) draw every inch of the town black.
Reality: Of course this is in pure theory and most likely if this was possible to add this feature, it would have huge restrictions, Like a player has a very limited amount of tagging or drawing before the old tags/spray would cause it despawn just to not slow down the server memory.
If they do implement it, it would most likely it be similar to Left 4 dead but again comes down the memory of the server and things like, Will tags spawn when players about to enter towns? Will they vanish when server resets? Will there be script issues? What if some one drawn something offensive on the wall? etc etc
Maybe if they made their stand alone game they can script it but for Arma 2 it is just not possible.
