Minimap Transparency

whenever I try to make a 100% opaque minimap it turns into 1% transparent which essentially means I can't disable minimap transparency, this is a major issue

Re: Minimap Transparency

bump, because there's no way to disable minimap transparency! is it an intentional regression so that people don't feel as bad when online EE closes?

Re: Minimap Transparency

It's only 1% you can barely see through it even if you tried. Does it really matter that much?

The thing is I don't want the minimap to be 1% transparent. I want the exact opposite — 0% transparent, which is 100% opaque.

Re: Minimap Transparency

Yes that's why you posted this, but you can't really look through it at 1% so it looks pretty much 100% opaque. It wouldn't really be a difference. I don't know why you would need it if you can already not look through it atm.

The point is the option I want (and was available before this bug) is not there! It doesn't allow every value! And it is a bug because it's a regression as before this bug it was possible to input 0% for an opaque map!

Analogy: A color picker that doesn't have every color.

If you have a color picker that has HEX #000000 to #FFFFFF but 1 of that (for example #019481) would be missing you could just pick something that looks like it. Same for having a 1% transparent map being almost exactly the same as a 0% transparent map.

But the thing is, it doesn't have every option! What's the point of typing 1% if it's not what I want?

Re: Minimap Transparency

Why don’t you turn off the minimap if you don’t want it.

they want 100% opaque

So that it's not transparent!

Re: Minimap Transparency

You didn’t answer my question.

What do you want to do with it? It’s totally fine for me.

Don't you know what a minimap is for?

Re: Minimap Transparency

i am 95% certain that's a problem connected with saving settings system.

The guy who designed setting for map transparency is a weirdo. He made it so complicated (there are like 3 variables involved: percentage (1-100), percentage divided by 100% (0.01 - 1), flipped alpha (1 - alpha) or something like that)
So the guy who designed it thought it would be a good idea to use every single value for difference things (instead of having just 1 variable and work with that).

When i was making saving system i had to think about this really carefully, i made many mistakes and bugfixes, but maybe there are more like this.

Uhh you probably screenshot this at a frame when the vertical cursor was invisible, if I put the text box out of focus it becomes the exact opposite — 1% which is the exact opposite of what I want

I haven't touched that setting ever since it was implemented, I've always had it set to 0%.

Most likely I was able to set it to 0% before the saving system was modified, which is why I have no problem. Doesn't change the fact that this is a really silly bug report.

The thing is, anyone who sets map transparency cannot set it back which is terrible
