Support for tracked second controller in ARENA2

  • Add a second tracked laser pointer
  • Can shoot markers (possibly in a different color)
  • NO multiplayer i.e. no second VirtualFieldworkPawn

Optional:

  • can interact with menu
  • can open menu (only one menu active at a time)

Brainstorming:

  • Problem: There is a 1-1 relationship between PlayerController and Pawn
  • This means adding a second controller input is non-trivial
  • Idea:
    • Add a dummy pawn that has a reference to the main playerpawn
    • This dummy pawn relays the input action/button press to the VFPawn
    • The "make measurement"-Event in the VFPawn maybe gets an input parameter whether the event was triggered by the dummy pawn. If yes, the marker will have a different color and the second laserpointer is used as origin for the line trace
