📝 Future Plan
Optimization
- Reduce VRAM usage
Drawing
- Take building thickness(Z Height) into account when deciding which comes on top of the others. Currently only compares Z position values.
- Building icons/color customization.
- Properly draw buildings rotated along X/Y axes.
- Apply customizer data.
- Community suggestion: Display power-sharded/somerslooped buildings.
- Community suggestion: Show vehicle routes.
- Paint?
- Community suggestion: Support the entire buildable area, which is slightly wider than the map, if it's not too big.
- Community suggestion: Show radioactive areas.
UI
- Community suggestion: Make buildings on the map interactable, displaying additional information.
Building Icon Textures (low priority)
Will implement in the following order:
- Production tab
- Logistics tab
- Power tab
- Architecture tab
- Transportation tab
- Special tab
- Organization tab
- FICSMAS tab
And More
- Display hard drive/somersloop/mercer sphere?
- Community suggestion: Add a building that displays the map in-game. (Will be a separate mod)
⚙️ Configurations
Too slow redraw? Too laggy?
You can adjust some settings to make tradeoffs.
Go to Menu > Mods > Cartograph.
Time Budgets
- Initialize Time Budget: Allowed work time in ms per tick(frame) for initialization which happens when a world is loaded. Higher = Laggier for the first few frames but Faster initialization(first map render).
- Redraw Time Budget: Allowed work time in ms per tick(frame) for redrawing which happens when a building is newly built/dismantled. Higher = Laggier when buildings are built/dismantled but Faster redraw.
