Warning

This project is for educational purposes only. The authors are not responsible for any misuse of the software.

What this app can't do:

Access internal live location of in-game elements, such as loot or enemies
Modify your in-game location

Since the software only uses external data available without interacting with the game instance, this is not a cheating software. This software is in the same category as would be a normal dynamic map on Tarkov.dev for example.

Use it at your own risk. If BSG declares a new rule about this in the future, please contact me ⚠️ I am not responsible of any loss
