Description:

!!!THIS REQUIRES EA26!!!

Hello, I’m back!

After a long break I’ve finally found the time for modding again. This was actually just meant to be an update for the Radar Mutator but it has since evolved into its own thing. This is a fairly basic minimap as far as features go. Allies will show as arrow blips on your map, showing what direction they’re facing. Enemy blips will only show up when they fire or when they’re at a minimum distance from you. Flags and ammo crates are shown just like in the radar, except this time you’ll now also see the capture point’s name.

Of course the biggest difference is that the minimap can also show you your location on the map. After working on this on and off, I managed to find a way to do this without the use of dual rendering which significantly impacts performance.

This however comes at a cost. This will impact performance more than the radar. Thankfully the impact is mostly felt at higher bot counts. At 60 bots and below, from my testing the impact was about the same. I’ll do what I can to optimize it through updates.

Never mind, I was able to do a simple optimization thing and this now scales better at higher bot counts than the Radar does.

FAQ
Q: What will happen to the Radar Mutator?

A: It’ll still be there. The reason why this evolved to its own mutator was that I wanted to keep the radar as an option for folks who want a more performance friendly minimap of sorts. Update wise though, it’s become far less of a priority as this is where my current interests are.

Q: Will this ever be available for EA25/legacy branch?

A: No.
