Hi seregavlg and welcome to OFPEC,

I'm not entirely sure what you mean - "tag" an ammobox? Do you mean add some kind of marker or something to it that's visible from a distance, or what? Why would you want to do this (usually people just add a map marker on top of the thing they want people to find), exactly? Give some more information, and we might be able to help :)

Wolfrug out.

Hi Wolfrug, i make mp mission.
"tag" - marker on screen, ex. when you select unit in your squad you see "tag" (unit location  & direction of unit location). Simple way use map marker,   but i want turn off map. and thanks for reply

You could possibly set a task and a task destination to the ammo box.  That'll appear as a gold marker in the game world.
