About Better Minimap

From mod.io

Minimap zoom, three sizes, reset, and a coordinates toggle. Saves your settings.

Better Minimap


Better Minimap adds a small control bar to the minimap with zoom in/out, three size options, a reset, and a toggle for player coordinates. Your settings are saved between sessions.

Works on Core Keeper 1.2.1+, multiplayer and dedicated servers. It only needs to be installed on the client.

FEATURES

Better Minimap adds a small control bar to the minimap with five buttons: zoom in, zoom out, reset, size cycle, and a toggle for player coordinates. Zoom and size adjust in real time, and holding the zoom buttons lets you fine tune without spam clicking. The size cycle switches between three presets (vanilla, medium, and large) and the frame grows from the top right corner so it stays out of the way. Coordinates show your position and distance from the center, updated live as you move.

Everything you change is saved automatically. Your zoom level, chosen size, and coordinates toggle are kept between sessions, so the minimap picks up right where you left it. No menus, no config files to edit, just click the buttons and it sticks.

BUTTONS

  • + button to zoom the minimap in. Hold it down to zoom continuously.
  • – button to zoom the minimap out. Hold it down to zoom continuously.
  • X button to reset zoom and size back to vanilla.
  • > button to cycle between the three size presets: vanilla, medium, and large.
  • C button to toggle the coordinates display on or off.

HOW IT WORKS

  • The control bar appears right under the minimap during gameplay.
  • Click the + or – buttons to zoom in or out. Hold them down to zoom continuously.
  • Click the X button to reset zoom and size back to vanilla.
  • Click the > button to cycle between vanilla, medium, and large sizes.
  • Click the C button to show or hide your coordinates and distance from the center.
  • The minimap frame and border grow together, keeping the layout clean at every size.
  • Every change is saved automatically, so your settings are there next time you play.
