Hey There thanks for the quick replay in the comments section sorry if it was not very clear I"ll try and explain little more in detail.

Lets start off with My Local Hosted server I run for me and my two friends.

• 1. itemGPS
  
• 2. Option 4 GPS spawn x6:
  
• 3. Option 6 Rand Destroyed GPS if Player Dies:
  
  
  ==============================
  
  
  
  Deeper Dive in what I'm Looking for in this GPS mod
  
  I wanted to keep the default project zomboid world map [ M hot key ] to always with or without the GPS on your belt or in hands or on your screen as a mini map to always display your character and a red dot on the project zomboid default world map [ M hot key ].
  
  However what the GPS mod changed was make the project zomboid not show your character or a red dot I would assume this would change once you found a GPS?.
  
  But is it possible to always by default as a option within the GPS mod to always have your character and a red dot to display on the default world map so the players personal world map you can access by pushing [ M hot key ] will always display your character and a red dot like it originally did?.
  
  
  ==============================
  
  
  How I would set up the GPS mod up in options
  
  
  ==============================
  
  
• 1. Option 1: GPS mod does not change the project zomboid default players personal world map and will always with and without the the GPS on the player will display them on the world map as it originally did before enabling the GPS mod.
  
  🔧 This is not in the GPS mod and I would love to have it as a option 🔧
  
  
  
  ==============================
  
  
• 2. Option 2: Option 4 GPS spawn x6:
  
  This is already in the GPS mod and I'm using it
  
  
  
  ==============================
  
  
  
• 3. Option 3: Option 6 Rand Destroyed GPS if Player Dies
  
  This is already in the GPS mod and I'm using it
  
  
  
  ==============================
  
  
  My final thoughts on the mod and how feature I'm looking for will help
  
  If you able to add that Option for me in a future update to have the best of both worlds to keep the ability to always see your character and red dot in the world from the very beginning when you spawn.
  
  And when and if you find a GPS then you don't need to help navigate your friend or friends though each ally way or street within the town / city / country / map they can simply use a GPS once found.
  
  Further more it adds more realism and immersion to the game using a GPS to help navigate to places however as much as I like realism and immersion in certain games there are few games where having realism and immersion mixed with non realism such as the default zomboid map to make it more quality of life and little easier.
  
  As we would not mind to make it less of a chore to play the game and more of a fun experience in future play thoughts if we chose to have it so the GPS makes our character and the red dot on the default map go away and the only way to see it again is to use the GPS.
  
  Just to get that extra hardcore and extra realism and immersive game play that's where the GPS mod really shines as it does not split the player base up as we can have our cake and eat it so to speak.

oh sorry, I hadn't seen it because I didn't get a notification, I'll read it ;)

ok, if i understand correctly, you just want a permanent red marker on the interactive map, even if the player has no GP, but not the minimap if you have no gps, that's ok like this?

you want : Mod ID: itemGPS option2 always Red Marker On Map

compatibility with SpiffUI - Immersive Minimap.

- frees F key for other overlapping keybinds and uses ( M to open minimap = gps)

- can be used with 2 handed weapons or gun-flashlight combo

atm you can use both and make them work if you're admin in a server, otherwise they conflict with each other

compatibility with SpiffUI - Immersive Minimap.

>> Impossible, the code of the minimap makes it impossible to remove the red marker, and the codes between immersive minimap and gps mod are incompatible since they both use the minimap



- frees F key for other overlapping keybinds and uses ( M to open minimap = gps)

>> impossible, itd's the game function, because the gps item work like torch, do you see? because otherwise, I would have to create its own item function



- can be used with 2 handed weapons or gun-flashlight combo

>> impossible, it's the game function, you can press "K" when the gps is attached belt



atm you can use both and make them work if you're admin in a server, otherwise they conflict with each other

>>can you tell me more, what is "atm"?

on the other hand, I can make the red marker remain permanent on interactive map, that's simple, it's vanilla ^^

@We will miss you telina

Hey sorry for late replay been busy with stuff but i tried this in

Mod ID: itemGPS option2 always Red Marker On Map

in my local hosted server mod list and i still don't see the red dot on the default map when i push M hot key to open up my map : /

thanks for the update it works as i wanted it too for us :D now we can see ourselves on the map by default and when we get in the car we can use the GPS instead of opening the map with M when we find the map :D

perfect ;)

^_^ here a helpful reward for your troubles :D

i think it would be cool, if like on the external world map, the GPS showed the closest region to you.

Some scaling would be nice, if possible. Playing on a 14" FHD screen with x2 font size makes the gps cluttered with text and the reticle is too big for the small size of the GPS screen itself.

Fantastic mod!

Question: is it possible to add an option so that other players are displayed on the map only if they also have GPS? Or maybe you can add some kind of button to activate on the GPS itself, like “send my coordinates” and so that after that the player appears on the map for others?
