Make the engineer built weapons visible on the mini map for my team

I build stuff to support my team.
When defending, apart from rally and ammo, I also build AA, AT and HMG all around our point.
Surprisingly, those weapons are rarely used by my teammates.

Our objective is being blasted by 2 enemy tanks but nobody uses my AT.
Same with planes and my AA.
Same with infantry and my HMG.

The reason for this is simple: my team cant see them on the map.
We can all see ammo boxes, medic boxes and barbwire and sandbags…but not the weapons.
As an engineer I cant even see where I built the weapons…I need to select my hammer first.

I think it would be a good thing if my team can see all the engineer built weapons.
Perhaps the mini map is too mini for this.
But we can see the barbwire and sandbags on it, nobody really needs that, showing weapons would probably be better.

What do you think?

In addition to appearing on the mini map, it would sure be cool if weapons built by engineers would have an icon above it, just like ammo and medic boxes have.
Those weapons can be hard to spot among all the debris and stuff.
Sometimes they are used when somebody accidentally walks into one.
With an icon above it, they are bound to be found and used more.

I also agree ! In addition give them a green outline if they’re unmanned and a blue one if someone is using them.
