Changing map size (the one that comes up with m) [Solved]

Post by Dakota »

I've created a map and made a nice mini map for it and put it in game but the map is 256x256 instead of 128x128. now when I look at the map with M it is only a fourth of what it needs to be so that i'm not outside of the map when i'm actually on the spot I should be.

Does anyone know how to change the map size (not terrain)?

Do you have a mapbounds region? If not, create one; it...I guess acts as the minimap's UVs, lol, in that it basically sets where the texture is aligned to, if that makes any sense. Create a region with identical X, Y, and Z scaling, name it mapbounds, put mapbounds in the region ID, and move it to wherever your minimap should encompass.

alright, I didn't have one before due to my map being surrounded on all sides. I'm going to try that now.

He's talking about a mapbounds region, not a boundary.

Having never set up the boundaries I believed they were related. Also I have the minimap working correctly now.
