Minimap

[Tooled]

Oh noes, here we go again.

So, I just though I'd share an idea for a map. I think it would be rather awesome if there were a button to view a minimap.
This minimap would then show structures, threes and stuff from above, but no players. This could help navigating in fog and on new maps.

Anyone agree, or have any ideas to implent? Please share, and say what you think!

Remove the entire UI would be my suggestion. Definately not more.

[Tooled]

This would be a feature which could be turned on by hitting a button.
That would be completely up to you if you wanted to use or not. I don't see the problem.

I play cRPG for the realism aspects. Adding a minimap would ruin immersion imo

This is not a realistic game, and I think that does not have to be the goal.
But that's just my opinion.

Fuck minimap!

Fuck minimap!

Thanks for serious feedback!

Was going to say no but you don't want players to show up at all.

Hmm.. not so bad. Would help in fog for sure. I still want to say no but its still a better idea with no players showing up on it at all.

You could explain it is realistic by saying the character you're playing was given a map of the area with buildings and areas marked.

Yeah, that could actually be realistic!
And I don't think it'll be good if soldiers are visible on map.

Only if we get laserpointers to mark targets for the archer squad!

Let it be known that from this day onward, I – Lord Moribund, Burgermeister of Tash Kulun - have ordered the copying of our holy texts to be ceased immediately and entirely. Despite the expected wrath of the church and despite seeing my chances to enter the realm of the father lessen, I have commanded all monastery-scribes to produce maps - so that all my peasant soldiers (that are worth less than the dirt under my fingernails) can go to battle over some meaningless village WITH A MAP!

Oh you.

[Miwiw]

What a bad idea. This is not a MMO!

After you played a map for one round you will know it forever, you will know any spot on the map and the way to go there. Not like maps are any big or hard to get known. Even with fog it only takes a short time to notice a building which actually let you know which map it is.

This! I have a really bad memory and even I know most of the maps
