Feature request: Display larger dot of a minimum size for guesses barely visible at current zoom level #120

(Related to the shape fidelity suggestion) When I guess a country that is very small, I'd like to see something displayed like a dot/circle of some minimum size until I zoom in to the point that the actual country shape is big enough to replace the dot. Currently it is hard to see that anything is colored in at all, and that looks like a bug (the one where it freezes and doesn't snap to or display your new guesses).

I usually play on my phone, but I have found this is also an issue on a tablet or computer. I think there could be determined a minimum dot size (relative to the default globe boundary) that works equally well in all browsers and window sizes, and isn't garishly large on the larger screens.

I equate this to the way some maps have a callout right in the map that shows a zoomed-in version of a small detail that can't be seen or labeled otherwise.

I support this, todays guess was tonga, the tuvalu guess almost wasnt visible at all, when you zoomed in, you got inside the "outline geometry" so that you only see the white border, picture related, I would suggest using another outline for oceania countries, because just land area is not enough.
