SWCMod

https://arukanoido.github.io/swc-mod/

The SWC mod comes from an effort to rebalance Squad's meta for competitive play, with additional features to help casters make their streams more dynamic and informative.

Rather than configuring gameplay mechanics within the Squad modding tools to one-size-fits-all values, we have exposed values for customization by event coordinators. These values can be modified via config files stored within the mod folder or ingame via a custom UI.

edit ui

Configuration is server-authoritative, so players don't need to download configuration files. As with the rest of the mod's features, access to the ingame UI for editing configuration is limited to players with the Admin Cam role.

A full list of all exposed values is available here.

All of the following features are only available to users in Admin Cam. These features can be toggled on or off with buttons in the spawn menu.

edit panel

Flag status

A persistent display at the top of the screen showing the AAS lattice and the team owning each flag.

Kill & Event feed

A persistent feed in a panel at the top right which shows infantry kills as they happen, as well as FOB, HAB, or vehicle destruction.

Event point of interest icons

When a FOB, HAB, vehicle, or flag event occurs, an icon is placed above the event in the game world showing what type of event occurred. The R key will automatically move the camera to the event's location so that casters can quickly react to events as they happen. The T key returns the camera to the original location.

edit panel

Follow camera

When you target a player or a vehicle, you will see a red triangle indicating that they can be followed. Pressing Left Mouse Button will attach the camera to them, so that as they move, the camera moves. While in follow mode, you can't move the camera with WASD, only look around. Pressing Left Mouse Button again will toggle the mode off.

Spectate camera

When you target a player, pressing Right Mouse Button will open a small window in the bottom left, showing that player's viewpoint. Pressing Q will toggle the window size to be larger or smaller. Pressing E will replace the main view with the player's viewpoint entirely. Right Mouse Button will toggle the mode on and off.
