[Feature Request] Team colors for TAK Tracker nodes

[habr05]

Is there anything that prevents team color being applied to Tak Tracker nodes?

I think this should work already? Just append the node color scheme to the end of the long name.

See here for more details https://github.com/meshtastic/ATAK-Plugin/releases/tag/1.0.13

it works for every type except "TAK TRACKER"

[habr05]

Both, "CTmA 6924 -5" and "TARDY", are the same node. The node is configured as "TAK_TRACKER".

I just tested this and it's working for me?

Make sure you have "Show all Meshtastic devices" enabled

[habr05]

So you're saying that team color, for TAK_TRACKER node type, will show only when "Show all Meshtastic devices" is enabled. Is that correct?

Yes

[habr05]

What's the reasoning behind it? Why not keep it consistent regardless of the "Show all Meshtastic devices" settings?

tracker nodes are meshtastic devices

[habr05]

ATAK has a standalone "tracking only" app used for anything that does not have (require) user input. TAK_TRACKER would be equivalent of that app. In real life that would be useful to slap those trackers on equipment, team members or even as beacons for landing pad, medic, command post etc.

Just to make sure that we are talking about the same thing I'm including the screenshot of the selected option.

if you set a meshtastic device's role to tak_tracker/tracker, it is equiv the same when your eud enables show all meshtastic devices.

the problem is that when I enable "show all..." the team color is applied to the node BUT if I disable "show all..." it is not and the appended -# shows in the name.
