Heh, I was actually looking for something like this the other day. Very useful!

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
Here are 4 "versions" of a Team Colored Target Indicator.
Some of them has 100 unit radius (useful for resize to fit an exact radius for a spell or something).
The other one has "medium" and "large" animation to be used as an attachment to a unit. (It's ~60, ~80, ~100 unit radius for "normal", medium, large)
During my development of Mecha Protectors I needed a Target Indicator, clearly pointing at a target. I didn't really find something so I made something.
Because I'm not really a modeller, I searched for something close to what I wanted and modified it, so I modified Longevity Aura to fit my needs, asked @Vinz for permission to upload and got an ok
The primary thing that I got from that was material setup and a circle to get started.
Super helpful and thank you for your amazing models Vinz!
Special Thanks to twilac for helping me with minor modelling stuff and making her fork of RMS: TRMS
Updates:
2023-06-04: Added "thinner" version, that imo looks better when scaled up than the classic one. Images with both version scaled 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x to compare.
2024-04-13: Added "Circle Indicator" version that is only the circle. It's the "non-thin" version.

FYI: I used it in my The Defence of the Castle map and wanted a 250 radius (2.5 scaled up). I thought that the lines were a bit big at that scale, so I made a thinner version that in my opinion looks better scaled up.

Nice and blissfully simple effect models. A good use of textures to make a very cool material effect.
Good job.

This is actually really useful.
I'll try to use it on my map if I can make it some space. I do think we need more of this kind of "UI" fx things like pings and stuff. Anyways, good job! I like it.
Edit: Where would you recommend we attach the FX? "Origin", right?

I use it as a "danger marker" for an attack (artillery strikes here in 2.5 seconds, danger!), but I feel like it can be used in many ways.
With the "100" radius versions it's easy to scale to however big the attack is.
Thanks
