README

MapPinFilter

Your friends shared their map at the cartography table and now yours is full of their pins and areas you've never been to? MapPinFilter adds checkboxes to the large map so you can hide what came from the table (or even your own pins) and see only what you want, then bring it all back with one click.

The problem

Read the cartography table once on a busy server and this is what your map turns into: hundreds of other players' pins and names piled on top of each other, until you can't find your own base, your portals or where you have actually been. The game only lets you hide everything shared at once, map and pins together.

A real map after reading the cartography table on a shared server

MapPinFilter lets you hide the shared map, the shared pins and even your own pins separately, so you can keep the explored terrain and drop the clutter, or the other way round.

The new checkboxes on the large map

Features

  • Shared map: show or hide the areas other players explored. Only the areas you explored yourself stay uncovered, on the large map and on the minimap.
  • Shared pins: show or hide the pins other players shared with you through the cartography table.
  • My pins: show or hide your own pins (the ones you placed, your tombstones and discovered bosses). Player markers and pings are never hidden.
  • Independent: each checkbox works on its own. They replace the game's "Cartography Table" checkbox, which could only hide the shared map and pins together.
  • Nothing is deleted: it only changes what you see. Tick the box again and everything is back.
  • Remembered: the checkboxes keep their state between sessions.
  • Safe: hidden pins can't be removed by accident with a click.
  • Translated: follows the game language (14 languages, English for the rest).
  • Client-side only: other players and the server don't need it.

How to use

  1. Open the large map (M).
  2. In the bottom-right corner, above Visible to other players, use the Shared map, Shared pins and My pins checkboxes.
