Question about minimap
« on: April 27, 2007, 06:52:54 pm »
Well, I'm registered now and look forward to this minimap (SUNDAY OMG), however I am wondering how it will handle a map like airpirates, on which the playable portion is tiny compared to the huge red deadlys surrounding it. Will I see the full map or is there some way to only view part of it (eg a zoom function).

Won't that make maps like air pirates and cubes really cramped looking?

Slightly.  You can still tell where you are.  However, this really only impacts team matches since you don't have any teammates to keep track of in normal death matches.

Will you be able to decide where this minimap is displayed in custom-interfaces?

It doesn't show anything you don't know. that makes it kind of pointless, right?
