Title: Minimap planned ?
Post by: PytonPago on January 26, 2014, 08:28:41 pm
Just wanted to ask, if you plan to make in the future a mini-map of the ME for OT instead of using the google-map one. I know its taken from internet data accordingly to engine position (just a net-plugun), but there could be made another plugin for ME-DEM towards a Map-file. Aether a texture whyte some coordinate transition between long-lat and its segments, or - i think it would be awesome - a google-map copy (hope no legal issues would be there), just whyte ME data made map in the same range-sizes. .... would be nice to see all the city positions and navigate trough the mini-map. Specially when more serious 3D-stuff-building starts in there.

Yes, I asked Cameni about this a few weeks ago. He said it would be possible to do!
