MiniMap Size
« on: July 16, 2012, 02:42:43 am »
Is there anyway of increasing the minimap size, on some of the larger areas it becomes basically impossible to see anything with everything being scaled down so much. I remember that you were able to do so in the older version but I cant find the key bind to do it in the current version.

You can also change it permanently under Settings on the 1st tab (Game). I have it at 100 x 15 on my 2560x1600 display.

Would anyone else like a minimap option that zoomed in the map but didn't actually make it bigger. Like, a bordered version that zoomed in and out within its borders? I think that would be handy since the small size is sometimes too small but the zoomed sizes take up too much screen space. Not sure how useful that would be though. Maybe I just need there to be a minimum size for the little 'something here' boxes. I just know in some big rooms it can be impossible to tell where anything is.

I usually just "zoom it up" when I need to see something specific, and then put it back to small for navigation. But I agree, some of the big rooms are rather hard to see where the balls everything is :P

I'm totally behind that zoom in feature too. I do the same thing Moonshine Fox does, but it seems like there should be a better way to get a better idea of what you're doing in supergiant rooms.
