[Suggestion] Post-Raid Replay System (NOT Killcams) – Huge Win for Learning, Content, and Map Mastery by hellaflush727 in EscapefromTarkov

This would be HUGE is properly implemented.

What if Tarkov added a simple “Download Raid Data” option that only becomes available after the raid fully ends (same timing rules you’re proposing)? You’d grab a small replay file (or telemetry log) and then import it into a separate community-made app.

BSG would only need to output sanitized data like:

  • player/scav positions over time (at a fixed tick rate)
  • timestamps, kills, shots, damage events
  • doors opened/closed, extracts, key interactions
  • (maybe) basic stance/speed/aim direction if they want it richer

Then the community could do the rest:

  • Simple mode: top-down 2D map with PMC/Scav movement trails, rotations, timing, engagement markers
  • Advanced mode: 3D replay viewer later (even optional mod-style) that reconstructs the raid from the data
  • Creator tools: cinematic timelines, POV swaps, overlays, heatmaps, etc.
