    I was playing around with decal roads and the GPS in the ETK, and I was wondering if there is a way to put highway icons on certain roads like a real GPS, landmarks in certain locations, and street names. Is this possible yet? Maybe as a parameter "Road Name" in the Decal Road properties?

    In the decal road properties there could be a text parameter to show on the road (for normal roads) every so often or an icon to show on the road (for highways and freeways) every so often, like the one shown.

    That looks amazing! Will we be able to change how much of the map the navigators cover? :D

    Can we also have the capability to show water blocks on the map with labels? Only the area of the water block above the map level at any given location should be included, not the whole square.

    I also think that the Sunburst and SBR4 should also have a GPS system as well.

    I really would like it to be like a real navigator with road names, waypoints, camera warning sounds etc.

    also when you crash the nav system pops up a waring saying that your car has been damaged, disableing the nav system until the car is repaired
