Render distance/Map Sight area is too small

It would be nice QoL for hunting, ganking, foraging etc. etc.

Green square - current
Black square - new

Few ideas:
- Increase sight range on map, leave render distance as it is

Game can barely handle the current render distance tbh

if you could see this far, everyone could auto hearth away before anyone could get close, even from a sprinting horse

also it would never work on the default client because you'd have to zoom out incredibly far to see the edge

At least on map we should see more. Maybe leave render area for current state but increase map sigh range.

I think idea with leaving render the same, but increasing sight area on map would work better no?

As nice as this sounds i'm like 94% sure Jorb said on some stream it's not possible or at least extremely difficult and time consuming to do right now.
Total misplay.

Just come out and ask for a PvE server rather than trying to find subtle changes that would allow you to never get caught.

+1 because I like to forage from a boat and this will make it way easier

yes. increase render distance to 8 times the distance you could ever see on the default camera. makes perfect sense,
if you arent playing this game zoomed out to the point where it looks like an early 2000s rts. with flatmaps, and no trees, you are doing something wrong.

Level of brainrot that happens when using color palette clients is mind boggling, bad idea
