Minimap Plugin

 

WARNING: This is currently NOT supported on the prerelease branch due to changes to the plugin API made that allow this to work!

Once this becomes available for the prerelease branch I will update this topic with the required version of Intersect!

You will need to be using the Development branch and potentially compile your own binaries for the time being!

Description:

 

This plugin adds a very basic minimap to the client, allowing your players an overview of the surrounding area and entities.

Currently there's not a whole lot of customization available for the minimap, but I do intend to eventually return to it to add some more changes. :)

 

Features:

 

  • Add a minimap to your games!
  • Renders the lowest layers of your map by colour approximation to the minimap.
  • Renders entities such as players, events, npcs and resources to the minimap with configurable colours.
  • A configurable GUI element with its own json file and graphics files. (including an overlay graphic!)
  • Configuration options to decide which map layers get drawn to the minimap! (v1.0.2+)
  • Configurable images per entity type (v1.1.0+)
  • Configurable images per resource tool type (v1.1.1+)
  • Zooming in and out as well as configurable zoom levels (v1.1.0+)

Changelog:

  • Added a zoom in and out button.
  • Added configurable options regarding zooming, so minimum and maximum zoom as well as the zoom steps and default zoom level.

  • Added the ability to distinguish between players and party members.
  • Changed some default configuration options to better allow for rendering images. (ie minimap tile size)

Just added a quick hotfix, version 1.0.1 that hides entities that are invisible on the minimap. :)

 

[Download]

I have this error, which seems to happen randomly, and also when I'm logged into the player and try to go back to the character selection menu

i can confirm this issue, logging out / going back to character select menu does crashes the client. happens with this plugin, also happens with some tests i've done by following @gooby guide.

Found the issue, although not related to this particular plugin..

Submitted a PR to fix the issue at the Engine level: https://github.com/AscensionGameDev/Intersect-Engine/pull/918

Yeah you are right, tried last night again, without a single plugin on, and the crash still happened in the same scenario. Thanks for this !
