Displays player positions, supports shared map markers (vehicles, fuel, weapons, and more), location pings, sector grid overlay, and per-player follow/hide controls. Built with PHP, SQLite, and vanilla JS. Requires access to the SCUM server's SCUM.db file. Player positions update approximately once per minute.
It uses a web stack so it's accessible from almost any platform (Windows, Linux, Mac, etc.).

The SCUM in-game map offers no player tracking or map markers, so I built this project to fill that gap. It uses a web stack so it works in any browser on any platform.
It tracks players in one-minute intervals because the only player coordinate data accessible is via SCUM.db, which only updates player coordinates once a minute. Every avenue for more real-time coordinate data has been explored without success. One-minute intervals is the ceiling for now.
- You can add map markers of various types to the map, viewable by anyone with access to this map.
- You can ping any location on the map, viewable by anyone with access to this map.
- You can track a specific player by clicking the target icon next to their name in the player list.
- You can enable/disable specific markers, player blips, the sector grid, and the X/Y coordinate tooltip that follows the mouse cursor.
- Player positions, map markers, and some options are persistent across sessions.
- Zoom level ranges from 50% to 200%.
