Tile Colors on Minimap

Post by Lpzie »

When we place a lot of tiles in some area, they show up on the minimap with the same design (white veins running through the signature color) as the tiles. Why not just leave their color on the minimap as a single solid color instead? It makes areas with a lot of nice colors on the ground look terrible when viewed from the minimap. It adds more clutter to the minimap as well.

It's just a rescaled version for the paving, but, myeah, might consider.

Using the paving image with the veins (or seams) is bad for pixel art, since one loses control over the color of the pixels on the map.
