In this episode I show you how to create a more advanced minimap for your game. Part 3 shows you how to add other icons to the minimap for ANY actor. That includes, NPCs, resources, and objective markers.In fact anything you want to have an icon will work just fine.

This type of minimap is the preferred method as it has minimal impact on performance; unlike the basic version I have shown previously. It is a longer video this time, but I wanted to make sure I could fit the entire video into one sitting.

If you get stuck, have issues, or any questions about this video topic, please leave a comment below and I will try my best to answer them for you.

Have a suggestion for a video, let me know below in a comment.
