To answer my own question: Yes, it disables friendly units on the tablet map if the server profile difficulty setting "mapContentFriendly" is set to "1".

Does this show friendly units on the map?

Anyway to have it re-open automatically after coming back from the optics view?
It goes away when I aim and it's can be annoying to re-open it manually every single time.

Great mod, btw, thank you.
Wishlist: having more precise control over zoom and pan, currently step is too big for me.

I think it is becase enhanced ACE map has this
colorForestTextured[] = {0.22,0.50,0,0};
by default in RscMapControl, which makes default forest color 0 alpha.

With "Enhanced ACE map" https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2467590475
forest has no background for some reason.

It seems like adding
colorForestTextured[] = {0.20,0.45,0,0.5};
fixes the issue. Please add it to the config.

Works fine with ACE

@Lucyfer Angel There is no mod such as "Ace Map", so what do you mean? Generally speaking, this mod shouldn't interfere with other mods and vice versa.

Is it compatible with Ace Map?

Not seeing any green on the Tablet for wooded areas? don't see an option to change in the CBA.

@aki No.

hi, is it possible to see your teammates on the map?

@HBAOplus You should be able to open the fleximenu, in which you can change the map type to paper. It's not automatic, but it works (normally, at least last I checked).

Hi, currently, if you select preferred map type to be tablet, when you not carry a GPS device, you can not bring up folding map by pressing binding keys. Could you please make some tweaks, so if you don't have GPS, you will auto switch back to paper map?

Hello when toggling my paper map it looks really small, is there a way to make it bigger/larger? thanks in advance

Not a problem, fully understand the "cost/output" issue, thanks for your time anyways!

Sorry, but I won't fulfill your request.
I don't really see the point of it, which makes me hesitant to implement it.
I haven't thought about it very hard, but I'm guessing the implementation would be complex - too complex for what it would offer in benefits imo.

Hi, because "manual tracking" ignores GPS, and auto/auto-center ignores GPSless, there is not really a universal mode that is usable under both cases without opening in-game setting menu...

Auto-center functioning without GPS should be due to my settings, but I think I turned that on due to above reason (have been using your mod for too long without a thought LOL)

@SSG Why not just use the "Manual Tracking" mode?
Auto-center shouldn't offer the possibility of being a GPSless cheat. I've tested it and in my tests it works as intended (which means no positioning without GPS, unless setting is set to not require GPS), but there might be bugs.

Hi, is it possible to move the map when "keep player on map" is set to "automatic"?

While it only "refolds" the map when GPSed player moves to the edge, it does not allow manual moving when GPS is not equipped, rendering this mode unusable without GPS (auto-center, on the other hand, does not need a GPS to position, effectively a GPSless-cheat)...there is no middle-ground mode where you have to refold the map without GPS, but auto-tracking (even centered) with GPS. so...

Great work otherwise! Can't fly without it now!

@mfrisch100 "Keep map open in" CBA setting.

Nice mod!

The map closes when I use ADS. Is there a way to keep it open?

@HBAOplus I couldn't reproduce the issue you described.

@HBAOplus I will look into it.

Hi,I also found something wired. When you load a saved progress in a sp mission, sometime the TAO map(paper and tablet) will not display. When you switch to another AI controlled unit, the map's back.
This bug will not occur every time, but when it comes, trouble comes together.

@HBAOplus Not at the moment, but in a future update.

Hi, is it possible to add more items to be GPS compatible devices (eg. ACE3 DAGR, items in Ctab Devastator Edition )?

@John Thanks for keeping this going. We are going to try to start phasing out the GPS entirely and using this as a replacement. The new UI rescale works well. Two thumbs up!

Thanks for picking that up John. Managed to solve it yesterday with the UI editor, so that's sorted the size issue, and I couldn't input anything as I had it locked to 'automatic', so thats fixed now too.

@Val You can change the size using the in-game layout editor (under game options).
For some reason the default size is much smaller than I had actually wanted to make it, I will try to rectify that.
As for the lack of input, make sure you have read what the various CBA settings do and have set them accordingly (e.g. "Require GPS for tablet" might be the source of your grievances).
If you don't have the correct items to open the tablet, use the Keybind for opening the CBA Flexi menu (Ctrl-Alt-M by default) to change the map type to paper.
Take a good look at all the CBA settings, it will probably fix the issues for the lack of input you are having.

Hey, having an issues with the rewrite where it's now very small in the bottom right hand corner rather than the usual size, and it doesn't respond to any inputs. Occured since the update.

Cool, thanks!

@Beachhead I am nearly done, still need to test more and fix a handful of small bugs.

Hey John, still planning on making it so you can resize this thing smaller?

You just need to make sure that your NVG keybind is not the same as the Night Mode (tablet only).

@Finger Jam I haven't received any other reports. If you can make a bug report, where you list all mods that are loaded and various other parameters, I could look into it. But as it stands, I have tested it multiple times and have found no issues in that regard.
Otherwise maybe reinstall the mod? Could be a corrupted file.

Spent an hour pealing away mods to find the one causing issues. Just letting you know that it was this mod.

@Finger Jam No, it most definitely does not. It works with ACE and numerous other mods. If you can reproduce it, you can make a bug report.

This mod breaks the ability to use NVG.

@PTE Bendy Not a bug, currently a feature. In the next update there will be a setting for toggling this behaviour.

Has a BUG. When I throw away the GPS, the tablet still works as if I still had a GPS.

another version of this has fixed it:

Thanks for keeping this great mod alive!

Almost perfect. It would still be ingenious if the lighting conditions at night would influence the paper map. For example, if you attach a glow stick to yourself, or if you stand near a light source (campfire, street lamp, spotlight, etc.).
And - in the paper version - it should not be possible to open this map on the default map (unless you had a second map in your backpack)
Great work - many thanks for it.

@Beachhead I am waiting for 2.06 to drop, as it brings the "ctrlMapSetPosition" command. With that it should be much easier to resize the map size.

@Johnb43 - A request, any way to make an even smaller version still? Something around GPS size?

@NikkoJT I am going to change the build process of this mod (going forward I'm using HEMTT) which makes signatures on its own.
However, the next update will be a while, as I need 2.06 to come out, as that has a important command for me that I want to use here.

Use the fleximenu.

How so? I was unable to find a way to do it.

@Beachhead You already can.
