replays: /specfullview does not affect minimap

In older versions you could see the whole battle on the minimap. Now on the minimap you only see what the team sees you are currently spectating.
If you can see all units on the terrain one should also see these units on the minimap.
Or maybe its just a setting?
That has been bugging me since ages, tried all kind of /spectator 1 /specfullview but no use.

Just a question, is this the default engine minimap or some widget?
I ran some demos and it shows all players just fine...

default minimap. unless some mods use a lua minimap.
but i have this on all mods so far, ba,ca,xta,sa,nota,gundam,kernel panic etc.
maybe worth noting:
-particles like nanos or explosions are shown everywhere on the minimap
-yesterday a player said in chat "this version broke this for him" but i've had it like this since 1 or 2 versions already.

oh i even posted about this way earlier.
http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.ph ... ew#p371714
and its in bugtracker
http://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=723
as resolved but it is not.
to be clear its not only demos, its like this when spectating games too.
and some effects like nano and particles are visible on the minimap, just not the units.

Tested again, /specfullview 1 and /specfullview 3 shows all teams on minimap. Isn't this how it should be?

heres a screenshot:

notice how ie on bottom startpos nanospray is visible but not the units. this is from a replay.
just noticed the "only select units from team you are spectating" works. but 0 1 2 3 all have the same visual setting on minimap.
