New "team color" field in Meshtastic NODEINFO #107

Closed a-f-G-U-C closed 2 years ago

a-f-G-U-C commented 2 years ago

As of merged PR https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-protobufs/pull/33 , the Meshtastic User protobuf (used in NODEINFO messages) contains a new field named team which can be set to any of the 14 colors in the ATAK team color palette.

This can be used to persistently assign different team colors to standalone tracker devices, instead of a single color configured in the Forwarder plugin, as we do now.

Full support of the new field is still WIP; should become available in the next couple of weeks.

UPDATE: this is now fully supported in the meshtastic-device master branch

edit: let me know if this meets your needs, I wanted this to live side-by-side with the existing way of assigning a team color
