Problem description: We've always wanted to implement a nice minimap as such in our games for some time but we could never figure out how to even go about it or get started. There are some minimap libraries on BYOND's Resource section but I am looking for something that would take a less major toll on performance for players. Any Ideas or Concepts are welcome. Please and Thank you  | |
Hmm @YutPut I'm not sure i completely understood what you mean. My maps as of right now are 300x300 though.
How would I then get the image to follow the player's movement if not by calculating the position and all that? | |
I figured thats what it was too but wanted to get some other's opinions. I guess figuring out such an equation would be the hardest part for me.

Well ur map is 9600x9600 pixels if the mini map is 150x150 pixels every 64 pixels u move would be 1 on the mini map
Just grab the players pixel x/y location in that z lvl and divide by 64 and thatlle be the point on minimap u Shud put the player icon If u wanna use a different size just do 9600/size of mini map But this would just get u 1 giant mini map for each zone | |
Probably gunna have to do some math and find an equation to match ur location with where it would be on the minimap
Can't think of anything more efficient than that
