Detecting if the space map is open

Post by zerwiport »

Hi,

I need a way to detect when a player opens the space map, so I can hide my mod's GUI components and restore them when it's closed.

As linked above, this request won't be implemented:

Moved to won't implement.
I'm an admin over at https://wiki.factorio.com. Feel free to contact me if there's anything wrong (or right) with it.
