You will start with it, as a default Colonial Marine gear. The tracker is too tricky for me to make it work as a pickup item.

Personally i'd place it in the middle-bottom of the HUD so the player would be able to keep an eye on it without having to directly look at it - but it's just a personal taste
@jdredalert : Will you use it for both your Colonial Marine Arsenal and Kontra's mod?
I'm still getting used to it, but yeah, it can be moved all around. However, since the HUD bar is at the bottom of screen maybe we'll need to create a new HUD. We'll try to find a good position for it. About the tracker on the Arsenal, why not?

I was thinking, for the radar, we should make it translucent, and put it in one of the bottom corners. Also, changing the color to green; I feel it would be even more like Aliens.
I agree about the translucent, but the tracker was blue in the movies, and one of the trademarks of all your work until here was how things look exactly as they were on the big screen. The only green trackers we saw in Alien (which was an improvised motion tracker, and for civilian use) and Alien Trilogy, to match the all green HUD. From
Aliens Online to
Colonial Marines, they always used the blue pattern...
