Map drawing issues

Opened this issue · 2 comments

In certain locations like motherload mine it loses track of your location.
I imagine this would also occur in many other certain world level changes.
Probably the best plugin for group ironman by far aside from this.

I can look into this! Thanks for reporting the bug.

Turns out this is a complex issue to solve due to Jagex's janky client-side map code. I had some discussions with the devs, and though I think I could devise a solution it's fairly complicated and would add a lot of potentially buggy complexity to the map point code. Areas like MLM and Dorgesh-Kaan are apparently common offenders, because the map is stitched together and difficult to map directly to a x,y,plane point.

If I get a decent amount of requests for this feature I'll see about coming up with a solution, but it's unlikely I will implement anything soon. I'm certainly open to someone else PRing a fix for this though - I believe hooking into the devtools map point location code might be of some value.
