[1.1.74] Spidertron path line disappears from map when zooming out too much

Post by yotam20 »

After using the spidertron remote, when the map is zoomed out past a certain point, the path of the spidertron is not visible anymore.
Even after closing the map and opening it again it is still not visible if zoomed out too much.
I expected that the line will always be visible on the map no matter how much I zoomed out.
It always happens.

To reproduce:
1. place spidertron
2. get a spidertron remote and connect it to the spidertron
3. use the spidertron remote to path the spidertron
4. open map
5. zoom out in map until the path of the spidertron is not visible

In the included image the path is seen in the minimap but not in the map (orange line).

Thanks for the report. This is not a bug. There is a threshold of 0.5 chart zoom below which the spider path does not render.

For 1.1.78 i moved that constant to utility constants under "chart.zoom_threshold_to_draw_spider_path" with a default value of 0.5.

That sounds like we can change it in the future ?

By mod, hidden option or chat command?
