[2.0.28] Inconsistent minimap details

Post by jaylawl »

In the image you can see my space platform whilst it is travelling. The larger window to the left is the remote view, which shows the flames of the thrusters. On the right is the default ingame minimap, which is showing the same space platform, but is lacking the thruster flames.

This is so minor im almost aching about even making a bug-report about this. So, on the other hand i would like the dev that reads this to know that in countless hours ive enjoyed playing :space-age:, the game has not crashed or shown any significant bugs for me. Not even once.

Not a bug.

Minimap only renders chart. Remote view renders entities on the surface and chart on top. Thruster flames rendering when covered by chart in remote view was already a bug that we considered to look nice and keep it. It is not going to be extended to also draw on minimap because that would require adding entity rendering in minimap just to recreate a bug we decided to keep in other place.
