How can I show on the minimap only a certain region?

Unread post by DieKralle »

I wanted to show a certain region on my minimap, but it always shows the complete map terrain.
How can I only show the region that the camera is bound to on the minimap?

"Changing the camera bounds does not change the scale of the minimap." Is the warning below that trigger.

I also tested t_cam Camera - Shrink the camera bounds for Player 1 (Red) west by 2000.00, east by 2000.00, north by 2000.00, and south by 2000.00 but has the same issue.

I used a region to limit the camera movement.
t_cam Camera - Set the camera bounds for Player 1 (Red) to Gebiet 591 <gen>

Has the same effect, where it still shows full terrain on minimap.
I saw it on a map that the minimap only showed a portion of the whole map. I can't remember though which map it was.

If you do remember, let me know. I'll deprotect it and steal a good look at the code.
