World In Game Map.

This is a proof of concept suggestion for an in-game map!
I realized no one else would think this was possible, so I decided I was going to quite literally make it, and then upload the suggestion. After spending a couple of weeks working on this, I decided to show off a proof of concept instead, as I wanted to go ahead and get this out here. Hope you enjoy it.

 

im checking your thread i don't want to die please do not kill me

 

@oculism
Bro wtf why

 

I don't see a reason why not to. It makes it more convenient.

Besides a few changes design-wise, this is a pretty good suggestion!

 

Tbh this is not what I would imagine under "ingame map" (I would imagine minimap like Wynntils has), but this seems to be a really good idea.

 

@ImUnlord
Why?

 

I have no idea how the hell you would do that.

 

Me neither (maybe except vanilla map)

 

So this is a good proof of concept, but I have ideas of how it could be made better.

First of all, this would be a gui activated in the inventory or on the hotbar.

Second of all, guis can detect clicks, so some form of zoom and panning could be added.

Finally, a minimap would be nice. This could be done using a map in the offhand, since that forms a minimap-like display. This might be difficult to do in the code though, but it would be cool and helpful to new players.

 

Zoom was planned, and possible.
I may do it eventually, get all the ideas I had working.

 

very good idea, should be added

(rip wynntils)

 

Wynntils has an objectively more fleshed out map, so I think it's fine.
This is, of course, good for the people who can't run Wynntils, due to lag, or pc issues, and people who don't know it exists, like noobs.

 

I feel like Vanilla players would benefit massively from this, but I also feel like it would clash with Wyntils and other mod's maps. If there'd be a way to disable it then i'd be all for it since that way it benefits everyone

 

Wynntils can easily over write features.
Already does so with item locks, and quest tracking.

@StormKing3
Why

 

I just want to note that in both cases it is extra feature (not 100% sure but I think they are separate)

But yes, Wynntils can overwrite things

 

I didn't like the map you made at all, don't really need one anyway as we've got Wynntils and online map. That's that and I won't respond to this

 

Pfft, ok first off like I said it's a proof of concept.
You can make it a higher resolution, and so forth.
Second off, you have wynntils, some people don't.
One last thing, this suggestion doesn't take away from either of the other two options, it just adds a new choice for players.

Mature.

@quick007 why?

 

You could do this with a vertical map as well:
