I'm trying to make a minimap and so far no luck. I've seen the example in the AUM27 mag and it's writen in C script. I'm new at this and still trying to learn Lite C. I'd appreciate any help.

Thank you

Use panels?
Have a main map panel for the minimap background.
Then every moving entity that should appear on minimap create another panel to represent them self.

Thanks badapple that's exactly what I was looking for. I knew panels needed to be used but I wasn't sure where to start with the code. Now time to roll up my sleves and start deciphering.

Thanks again for your help.

sorry its not well commented. i have a real problem with that , but sometimes time is short ya know? but im working on a new version im going to contribute , and you can see what direction the player is facing , and the players radar blip highlights with a cross every 15 frames , makes the players blip easier to find. ill try to comment that one better.

No problem, your code was very self explanatory. I was able to plug in your code pretty easily. let me know when you're done with new version.

Thanks again Badapple
