Kinda right, but you get used to it pretty fast i think, even without rotation. Worst part of minimap is that you cannot move when it's open :(

Anyway, i like the simple style of OP's iface. Player gets what's needed, dev doesn't have to be art school student to create a new screen; win-win. If it wouldn't block interaction with map (movement, combat, containers, etc.) while it's open, it would be perfect.

Very interesting idea.

Interesting to know. Now that we have engine's source, everything is possible.

I think I'm gonna look/dig around this minimap idea, I find it very interesting.

;D

Bit small, but nice.

Zoom level is just an argument to one of engine's draw functions, so scaling minimap up/down is trivial and doesn't need rebuilding/caching different data for different zoom levels. For a first version, it's good enough i think.
