Is there any possible way to give maptext a drop shadow/outline so its easier to see above the map?
Yeah, just add another maptext object with the same text and offset it by 1px or two in a lower layer of the main object.

^ or even that cheeky work around.

I think i'll take Fushimi's work around. It seems easier. I'm not so use on how to add a custom font.
EDIT: How exactly would you set it's offset? I tried using pixel_x and pixel_y but neither seem to be working. | |
When setting the screen_loc var of an object, you can also add a pixel offset, as stated in the F1 reference.
myobj.screen_loc = "4:16,8:16"
This places myobj on the coordinates 4,6 with a pixel offset of 16 on both X and Y axis. You can also add a negative value to offset to the -x axis. | |
Do you means 4,8 for its coordinates? Thanks for that. I never knew that. I just recently started getting my hands wet with obj and screen_loc. My old programming never featured any hud-based systems revolving around them.

Not via css, I believe a custom font might help you.
