could have both, radio for alerting specific people to your location or emergency flare to alert everyone nearby. Maybe the flare could start a signal fire for making smoke.

nice man . 10/10

So...

Let's imagine this idea is used by a PK gang - dozen of gangsters, all 21st level killers and armed to teeth - to lure the inexperienced or lone-wolf players, miners or even smaller gangs by calling for help, and when their prey joins encounter, bringing them down easy.

Or channel spams? Someone who doesn't need help at all could spam the channel "for fun", making other players angry. Trolls are everywhere, they even spam the GM channel.

What about such issues?

In a day or two, nobody would use this feature anymore, and all work would be in vain.

Lexx:
Depends very much, imo. It can be a useful feature for gangs who are using their own radio channels. If you run under 22435 and you friend too, he sends a radio signal and you get his position. I personally don't see much problems in it. Of course, if you are using public channels with many people... but this is your own risk then.

Also these location marks would be removed after you have left the map, which makes it not possible to form nice images on the worldmap.

This is your job as a developer. You're supposed to make your game resistant to idiots, and not let them shit all over an idea that has had the most universal support.

If you're frustrated about other features not being used, you've not made them worth using. If you've created a feature and nobody uses it - is it the players' fault? No. Why rent a room for 500 caps a day when you can make a more secure tent that lasts forever? It's time to go back over a lot of these old things and actually think how you could make them popular. (Brahmin trading, bounty hunting, room renting, there's probably others)
