Tactical/Resources map

[Lion.Kanzen]

I get this idea to explore minimap more deeper and remember EE2 but someone else in AOE forums, says about this.

more detailed map with icon of resources like mineral or marvel or relics, obviusly needs be explored first.

Quote

which appeared back in age of mythology. For those who don't know what it is, it's an unfoldable, amplified minimap in which the buildings are not simply dots, but have an icon assigned depending on the kind of building it is. You unfolded and folded it by pressing tab on the keyboard.

He said this, but I prefer focus in things are hard to se in the map like resources, heroes, CC and wonders.

@elexis basically this.

Should not be hard at all when I look at the current XML code:

 

	<!-- Minimap -->
	<object size="8 8 100%-8 100%-8" type="minimap" z="20">
		<action on="WorldClick">handleMinimapEvent(arguments[0]);</action>
	</object>
	<object
		type="image"
		size="4 4 100%-4 100%-4"
		sprite="stretched:session/minimap_circle_modern.png"
		ghost="true"
	/>

We could probably also allow different sizes of the (small) minimap in the config.

Its possible add icons ?

@nani thanks to you, this should  be a new feature.

Sarebbe anche bello poter disegnare la mappa con colori diversi (disegnare che durano pochi secondi) in cui puoi fare strategie su una mappa che i tuoi alleati possono vedere, con cerchio, croci, frecce ecc.

It would also be nice to be able to draw the map with different colors (draw that last a few seconds) where you can make strategies on a map that your allies can see, with circle, crosses, arrows, etc..

It would be more full of features than normal minimap.

[Lion.Kanzen]

Possible features. More buttons.

• Zoom out zoom in
• Icons of main buildings (wonder, market, CC)
• Icons of minerals, treasures , mercenary camps.
• Militare idle button
• Drawing option.
• Disable/show terrain.
• Disable/show units.

• Economic map (shows only resources)

No they do not work and Lion did say possible features which means it that it has not happened yet nobody has written the code.

Enjoy the Choice
