Feature Request: Integrate Web-Based Radar from cs2_webradar

[Undertaker-afk]

Overview

This feature request proposes integrating the browser-based radar functionality from clauadv/cs2_webradar into DragonBurn to allow remote radar viewing capabilities.

Motivation

The current radar feature in DragonBurn works well but is limited to the application window. Adding web-based radar functionality would allow:

• Remote viewing of radar on secondary devices (phones, tablets, second monitors)
• Sharing radar information with teammates through network configuration
• More detailed visualization options through the web interface

Technical Implementation

Components to Integrate

1. WebSocket Server: Add the WebSocket server from cs2_webradar to stream radar data
2. React Web Application: Incorporate the web-based radar visualization interface
3. Data Bridge: Create a bridge to feed DragonBurn's kernel-mode data to the WebSocket server

Proposed Integration Approach

1. Memory Data Extraction

Since DragonBurn already has kernel-mode memory access, we should:

• Use DragonBurn's existing memory reading for player positions, map information
• Format the data similar to what cs2_webradar's usermode component sends

2. WebSocket Implementation

Add a WebSocket server component to DragonBurn that:

// Example implementation based on cs2_webradar's approach
void StartWebSocketServer() {
    // Initialize WebSocket server on port 22006
    // Listen on path "/cs2_webradar"
    // Forward memory data from DragonBurn's memory reader
}

3. Web App Integration

• Include the React application from cs2_webradar in the DragonBurn distribution
• Adapt the connection settings to work with DragonBurn's WebSocket
• Add configuration options for local/remote usage

4. Network Configuration

Add user settings for:

• Enabling/disabling the web radar
• Port configuration
• LAN/WAN access controls
• Optional authentication for security

Benefits

• Enhanced team coordination with shared radar
• Flexible viewing options
• Leverages existing open-source code (cs2_webradar is GPL-3.0 licensed)

Notes

• The cs2_webradar repository already has most of the necessary code
• Since DragonBurn already has kernel-mode access, we don't need cs2_webradar's usermode memory reading
• This integration should maintain DragonBurn's existing security and detection avoidance features

References

• clauadv/cs2_webradar
• GPL-3.0 license requires us to maintain the same license for derived components

Thanks for using our software! We will look into and fix your issue asap.

[Juse2Good]

I could honestly try to do that! 👍

[Undertaker-afk]

@Juse2Good pls try to add it i tried too but i failed misserably

[SamlonDev]

@Undertaker-afk part of learning is failing

[Undertaker-afk]

@SamlonDev i know but i failed 10 times befor getting something that remotly resembles anything i had as a goal. The webradar turned dragonburn from a lightweight thing into a disk monster and a game and cheat crasher, it worked 2 out of 27 times and everytime the frametime spiked to 18ms and my fps got down to 5 and it still failed to send the data to the webradar instance in the browser

Mayb a little of network basics

[Undertaker-afk]

@wqq-z thats not it i just miserably failed trying to add a usermode app into another and not effecting the functionality of any

[Juse2Good]

hey, im currently working on this releasing it on a fork soon ilyk once i've made it into a clean code. @Undertaker-afk

[Undertaker-afk]

@Juse2Good nice can you share it here when your done

[Juse2Good]

yeah! making the "commit" after i got some free time. at 4pm utc 2+

[Undertaker-afk]

@Juse2Good did you find a good way of integrating all the stuff and i would recommend you for @itzlaith fork tgat has vis check and map parsing and improved performance
