About this addon

What it does

A CTF addon that tracks flag carriers and shows how far they are from capping or if they're "ON CAP" or "NOT ON CAP" message.

Made for Twin Peaks and Warsong Gulch.

What It Does

Banner — Colored banners appear next to the flag icons on the score bar showing each carrier's status:

  • Distance to cap in yards
  • NOT ON CAP / ON CAP / DROPPED status
  • Carrier name with optional class coloring

Carrier HUD — An optional draggable frame showing both flag carriers with distance, cap status, and ETA.

Directional Arrows — When you're carrying the flag, two optional draggable arrows point toward your base and the enemy flag carrier. (North-up only — player facing is unavailable in battlegrounds.)
