Features

Overview of everything STORM does.

🗺️ Live map

Tracking teammates and orienting in the field.

  • Real-time positions of all faction players and allies
  • Offline map tiles (OpenStreetMap, custom game layers)
  • Compass, AR view and directional bearing with N/S/E/W reference
  • MGRS coordinates support
  • Draw routes and markers directly on the map

🎯 Missions & tasks

Tactical tasks with GPS validation — from flag capture to a full enemy-app blackout.

  • Missions based on QR codes placed in the field
  • Anti-cheat GPS validation — to scan a QR you must be physically within an adjustable radius of the point
  • Mission types:
    • Flag capture — classic point control for the faction
    • STORM Jammer — capturing the QR blacks out the entire enemy faction's app. Fullscreen static + “SIGNAL LOST”, impossible to bypass, persists across refreshes. Recapturing instantly restores their app.
    • STORM Radar — capturing the QR reveals enemy faction positions on the map. Stealth mode: the enemy doesn't know. Loud mode: the enemy sees a warning with countdown. Timed or permanent.
    • Transport — scan QR at pickup, scan at drop-off + photo as proof of completion
    • Counter-strike mode — plant “bombs” at multiple defined locations, the other faction tries to find and defuse them
  • Completion history → who captured each point, when, and for how long

💬 Tactical chat

Communication structured by hierarchy, with no language barrier.

  • Faction / group / team / player
  • Commander broadcasts
  • Push notifications
  • Categorized quick messages — moving out, fall back, contact
  • Online translation — every player writes in their own language, others see the message translated in real time
  • App localized into 10 languages: Czech, English, German, Slovak, Russian, Ukrainian, Italian, Spanish, Polish, French

🛡️ Lock mode

If captured, the enemy reads nothing.

  • 5× tap on the map to lock the screen — decoy snapshot
  • Once captured, the enemy decodes nothing from the locked app
  • Random shuffling of teammate, marker and mission positions
  • Long-press on Tools to unlock and return to the game

📡 Commander features

For organizers and faction commanders.

  • Admin panel for organizers and faction commanders
  • Hierarchy: faction → group → team → player
  • Statistics and event replay

🔋 Field operation

Reliable runtime for the whole game day, even in locations without signal.

  • Runs in background — screen can be locked
  • Optimized battery usage, reports battery level of all players
  • Adaptive GPS interval based on activity
  • Supports areas with limited signal (offline maps, message queue)
  • Player status: Alive / Dead / Medic / Vehicle / Night Ops / RPG + SOS broadcast to faction chat
  • Night mode — dark background + dimmed red text, protects dark adaptation at night
  • Mesh radio (LoRa) via Meshtastic gateway for locations completely without mobile signal — in active development and tuning, currently Android-only
  • Player aggregation on the map — instead of dozens of separate dots, the group commander carries a single marker with the player count of their team (less rendering load, a clearer map)
