Default Idea for A "follow" map setup.

I've been thinking how much i would LOVE to have a map system that FOLLOWS the players movements. so i thought about doing the following.

Instead of having the static player arrow move along the main map. couldnt you switch first the image for the arrow and the Map. and then switch layer priority of the Arrow and map. so what you end up with is a static arrow. and a Map graphic that moves and turns as the player does.

I have not looked into the code of this but might give it a whirl later on.

This would ofcourse only really be useful for a minimap system. without POI! (unless the POI where edited ONTO the Map image to being with). could make an interesting little Compass Mod Though.
