Hey guys what up.. I have some ideas for you to chew on.. (Attached)
I have found, what I think is, a better way to plugin options into the EQ2Map project.. I have modded it so that you can have 4 "plugins" installed at one time.. Changes in EQ2UI_Mainhud_Map.xml are minimal for this.. 4 includes and 4 lines of script
I have also made some examples (Edit: not 100% done with any, but they all work well enough to install and check out)
There's 6 or 7 examples but they are not polished just wanted to get them in there to show some examples on using them and to test it..
I also implemented a minimap feature.. Changes for this are many.
Edit: I'm not 100% done with everything yet.. Still needs polish.. But it's in a good enough shape to be shown..
off hand I remember:
I had to move the Icons out of QM_Overlay into the MapPage and renamed it QM_Icons(So they could be dragged with it)
Had to change a lot of scripts in quite a few files for this.. (Under_ files)
I added two buttons to the titlebar for minimap feature.. Also had to add two windows to make a different style window when in mini-mode.. (Window frame and title bar needs to be on way top)
I changed the way the MapBorder works.. (Seperated into 2 windows(files) MapOverlay and MapUnderlay)
I changed the way QM_MinimizeButton and QM_RestoreButton worked so I could "press" them through my scripts..
I also added a MapImageOverlay.. I use this in one of the options to make the maps a little darker.. I don't like them so bright..
I'm sure you will rip it apart if you like it
If you have any questions let me know..
Here's a jpg of the Minimap:

Edit: I don't know if this works with autoupdater at all.. I used latest download available when making it.. Should be installed over that..
I will polish it all up if you guys like it..
