Note that the dish is supposed to be attached at a 45 degree angle facing the sky. I just wasn't able to rotate it properly in PS and I can't be bothered making another one. <deliver> </deliver>

Re: Minimap
Looks more like a laser without the angle properly implemented.

Re: Minimap
That tower will cause flight accidents, definitely.

Re: Minimap
Not bad, MaximDude. I like the way that is shaping up. If everyone involved with this keeps it up, we just might see this implemented.

Re: Minimap
Well, I've got MLC's larger screen implemented, working on zoom and travel functions, and adding various other things as they come. Also tidying up my code, which most people won't care about but is good for those who want to learn something.

Re: Minimap
Green color looks out of place imo, but the shape and interface looks really good. Try having the same screen color like the default vanilla screen or something that would not stick out so much.

Re: Minimap
Don't mind me just fixin' up some things. Also, next release won't be for at least another few days; I'm going to be gone all weekend, and it's another day or two of work past that to finish it all up.

Re: Minimap
Sexytower is indeed sexy :D I didn't realise it was that tall though...
@ Kilgannon Well, the whole radar look kinda seems out of place... CC is a side scroller so... Map should also be side scrolling...

Re: Minimap
rather than radiating lines, there should be a crossectional map of the terrain in blue. just go with the getaltitude method. basically, move a particle across the scene's x axis with a step of (scene width / map width) and call getaltitude, then place a MOPixel of the proper colour at the corresponding screen position. or do the whole SCAN ALL TERRAIN thing, but you'd need to have a dynamically sized screen for that.
