How to lock map marker font size?

[Skasi]

Is there a way to stop map markers/labels (the things you plop via ~ and double-left-click) from changing font size as you zoom in and out? A setting to "lock" it?

I want markers' text to always be the same size, no matter the zoom level, similar to gui elements so I can actually see them when zooming all the way out and my whole base ain't hidden behind super big letters when zoomed in.

Replace with lua equivalent.

Is there a good widget for these? The default one is very ugly. I liked the way they were in ota: small glowing balls and not exclamation points.

Lua markers would be neat. Could easily make client-side only points that way too so I can spam the map with labels without annoying anybody :D

You can already do client side only points, check the wiki.

Code: Select all

Spring.MarkerAddPoint (needs ModUICtrl)
( number x, number y, number z [, string text = "" [, bool localOnly] ] ) -> nil

ooo sweet, I never knew! Thanks

I see there's no client side lines though

Code: Select all

Spring.MarkerAddLine (needs ModUICtrl)
 ( number x1, number y1, number z1, number x2, number y2, number z2 ) -> nil

Permanent, but is it still water soluble?
