Minimap GPS Navigation Update Frequency In /settings
« on: 26 05, 2022, 12:48:27 am »
I'm suggesting adding an option in /settings to tweak how fast or slow the minimap navigation (green GPS line) updates in milliseconds. Currently, it updates VERY slowly and sometimes forces you to wait until it starts rendering to know which way to go upon starting new navigation.
People with high-end PCs might want to utilize their machines with this setting and get faster and more accurate GPS navigation.
Minimum frequency value shouldn't be too low to prevent accidental FPS drops. As far as I know, such a script should entirely be server-sided with no risk of overloading the server. The only risk is the player setting a low value that their computer cannot handle, which is done at their own discretion.

I'm supporting to faster the minimap navigatio, it makes players with high quality computers better game experience.
Though, not sure if it's possible to make such a change.  :tick:

Adding a new setting will cause 70% of online players to crash out of the game due to game being frozen for too long. I did this instead:

- The minimap GPS navigation line will now update as fast as what's set inside '/settings > Minimap update frequency'. (Danzy + BabY)
