don't do it like that. parallax layers do not correspond to foreground layers

if nothing else just draw the main background only

[notarctic]

that would look gross on paralass maps

[Phantom Brave]

it's going to break dramatically on parallax layers that aren't the same core size as the background

[notarctic]

so? not my fault whoever mapped said map mapped it like shit

[Phantom Brave]

it's not "shit mapping", it's "only using however much vram needs to be used". big difference. if you have a static sky it's only normal to draw and distribute a 175x120 image instead of a 1000x500 one.

well thats too bad

I eventually got to fix it (thanks arctic)! The minimap v2.0.1 now officially works for 2.8.0 . And while I was here I also implemented sliders. I hope you won't mind.



So now instead of having to type numbers, you can slide it and it zooms more or less. Hopefully it should make the zooming feature more interesting, but it might break your previous settings.

Very small zoom (< 1)


Very big zoom (> 5)


Okay zoom (~1.75)

You don't need to download anything other than the attached minimap_v2.zip . As usual, unzip it in your Plugins folder.
You should end up with this:
Plugins\minimap_v2.gml
Plugins\minimap\(5 .gml files)
Plugins\Resources\YB\slider\(2 .png and 1 .gml)

Version 2.0.2 is out!

Two bug fixes in this version:
 - Renamed second occurrence of "zoom range" to "opacity" (bad copy-pasting, sorry)
 - Fixed repeated crashing when only one IntelligenceBase exists

Isn't showing where the enemy carrying your intel a cheat? I mean I know vanilla gg2 shows where your intel is but it only tracks you to it using arrows.

Very good plugin. I think this will be especially useful on unfamiliar maps.
