Could you make it so it is able to see enemys near to your teammates? Similar to a fog of war?

I'd say that this is one of the things that could make this somewhat cheaty, maybe have it show up any visible enemy on your screen and no more, that way you won't gain an unfair advantage over other players

what's with the numbers? looks like an IP address but yeah it looks odd

Oh sheet, I've let that draw_text here 
They're characters coords on the minimap... used it for zooming debug, but I forgot to remove them Reuploading the gml right now.

Edit: reuploading done. Check this post's attached file.

Nope. Because I don't consider this plugin as cheating since it doesn't show enemies at all, if it did then it would be a really unfair advantage. Seeing enemies in your field of view on the minimap is completely useless, and being able to see further than your field of view is definitely cheating.  approval

There it is! This plugin now implements a new zooming function that allows you to see a part of the map around you instead of all of the png file. Enjoy this v1.2!

Changes:
 - Added zooming (minimap is focused on you, and you see teammates around within a close range, range can be changed in plugin options)
 - Created new minimap object so HealthHud's draw event is no longer overridden (a.k.a. less conflicts)

Still have to do:
 - Handle multiple-in-one maps like dirtbowl so you only see the map you're actually playing on

Of course feedback and requests are still appreciated

Wow this is so cool. I tried it out and it works great. I was wondering if there is a way I can make it so only my bubble shows up. I don't really care for where my team mates are. I just want the mini map 

[[FR]YB]

Alright, another version coming up. With this v1.2.1 you only get a few bug fixes and small improvements:

Changes:
 - Fixed bubbles not displaying when too close to map bounds
 - Fixed minimap displaying when dead
 - Added show method: display myself only and big bubbles
 - Added bubble color for myself choice
 - "Show health" now works for every class

Also I've received a lot of requests via IRC, and I'd like you people to post requests here to ensure I don't forget them. Because I'm pretty sure I did forget some of them.

Download the attached file and put it in your Plugin directory as usual

Oh really? *test* Oh right, I thought I had anticipated this.
*coding*
Well here is a new version with more options such has choosing precisely how tall you want the bubbles to be on the map. 

Enjoy this v1.2.2

  Can't play without the minimap now. Too useful 

[[FR]YB]

Here comes another new version! With this v1.3, you can see sentries and places to attack / defend (Intel, control points, generator)

As usual, download this post's attached file (minimap.gml) and place it in your Plugins folder.
And yes, the file's size is 32 kb.

Please post any bug, glitch or request here!

Holy code duplication, batman!

[GG2RBY]

So yeah this is pretty much amazing

Great work

[[FR]YB]

Holy code duplication, batman!

Feel free to optimize it mate

[thelostshadow]

It works great however the  bubble will show the sentry's position regardless of whether it is within the minimap's box.

I'd like it if you could make the map more medic-friendly.

As in better placement. So that if I'm in the middle of an intense match I don't have to look over to the corner.
