      Release: 96 – Minimap
      New Features:
      * Minimap showing just the world itself for the moment.
      – Zoom levels showing visual ranges across the map from 200m up to 1.8km (press M to switch zoom level).
      – Rendered with a lens distortion to increase the zoom at the centre of the map.
      – Coloured based on the ‘type’ of block (not true block colours) to help keep map readable at large zooms, and with height effecting the luminance to hint at the shape of the world.

      Hmm, I’m sure some of the block icons have changed as well. They look more defined.

      Edit: Now compared my screenshots and yup, some have been updated.

      Huzzah! I can see my road(s)!

      It’d be nice to have an embiggen option on the minimap eventually, so’s I don’t have to find my reading glasses whenever I go to check to see where to build a turn. Not everyone has the keen eyesight of a child.

        agreed
        My MINImap is about the size of a Quarter on my 27″ Screen
