Minimap #84

Open adrianlshaw opened 6 years ago

Do we want a minimap?

chorhatarahuduketuri commented 6 years ago

I think the ability to zoom - and different levels of map detail at different levels of zoom - would be better than a minimap.

Also, where would the minimap go?

adrianlshaw commented 6 years ago

I didn't envisage anything big - just something to quickly indicate where you are in space (without any detail). Think of the minimap used in text editors, except in 2D space.

OTOH as you say, if we have slick zooming then there might not be much point.

A minimap may work if it only appears in the corner while the map is being moved. However, if it doesn't serve any need then we can close this issue for now.
