I actually like this idea myself and have thought the same in the past. Make it so Crate… put some zoom on the compass mini-map.

It was suggested before Compass/radar/minimap size
but nothing happened, maybe this time more people will chime in and +1 this idea.

me personally I know the levels in and out and don’t even look at the minimap that often anymore, but I think it will benefit new players so yeah +1 from me as well.

It feels sad that nothing happened. :frowning:
I thought CRATE cares about players.

Now i have to keep opening map (M) to know where i am all the time, it would not be so much trouble if locations were not so complex. (I like them but greater view in minimap would be great.

I think its not so much to work on it, just give OPTION to zoom minimap like i show in pictures.
Please CRATE! Im dedicated fan, I own 3 copies of full game with all DLCs!

What, you expect them to make a change like that - if they decide to implement it - and just release a patch for that alone? If they implement it, it will come in a much bigger update.

I know but the question is if they decide to do it. :smiley_cat:

I really like the idea too, but I think the zoom out in the sample is a bit too much. Sometimes I like to go around houses and hidden corners and they’re better seen with more zoomed in map. Maybe something between the two would be best.

Why not give OPTION for players do decide? Can choose and zoom between 3-4 zoom levels. :wink:

+1 - I have wished for resizable minimap radius many times over the years.

This really is one of the very few, but the biggest issue of GD by far, that could still be polished. To me this would be as useful as autopickup+lootfilter.
I keep opening and closing the normal map all-of-the-time, from day 1.
Resizing the minimap seems so much doable and would be such a huge benefit at the same time.
Please - implement this for us, before you abandon the support …!

How much does this brush up against the concept of a transparent area map overlay? Cuz the devs flat out said they wanted to avoid anything remotely approaching that.

Crate please implement this! TY

I don’t get what you mean.

I guess the easiest solution would be applying the full map zoom setting to the minimap as well. So if you zoom out on the full map, the minimap zooms out as well. That way you don’t need any extra keybindings or buttons or anything like that.

I think it should be two independent zooms but it does not matter as long as we will have option to zoom minimap like shown on pictures. :slight_smile:
