FastMiniMap

FastMiniMap is a server-side minimap HUD for Hytale. Terrain rendering, HUD delivery, and live updates all happen on the server, so players do not need a separate client mod just to see the minimap.

The mod is designed to work cleanly with MultipleHUD and other HUD mods without taking over the only custom HUD slot.

Features

  • North-up terrain minimap rendered from WorldMap chunk tiles
  • Rounded or circular minimap styles with configurable border color, thickness, and corner radius
  • Configurable center marker color with optional static diamond or directional pointer mode
  • Optional cardinal labels and coordinate bar
  • Per-player world-scoped profiles with an in-game /minimap settings page
  • MultipleHUD coexistence without fighting for the default HUD slot
  • Per-player background sessions so the minimap does not run on the main game thread
  • Separate terrain, overlay, and marker update paths to reduce unnecessary churn
  • Seamless live chunk refreshes that reuse the last good tile instead of flashing black
  • Mob overlay when MobMapMarkers is installed
  • Player overlay when PlayerAvatarMarker is installed
  • Resource-backed localization for the HUD and settings page

  • Gains player avatar overlay with PlayerAvatarMarker installed

FastMiniMap owns the minimap terrain, HUD, center marker, session loop, and overlay compositing. MobMapMarkers provides mob dots and mob icons for the minimap provider surface, and PlayerAvatarMarker provides player avatar dots and avatar images for that same provider surface.
