Anyone know how to do this? I thought I remembered seeing the answer here before, but I can't find it now.

...Anyone?

i've asked the same thing.

Unfortunately, the only possible way that I have found is to actually use a hak that overwrites the minimap graphics for whatever tileset you are using. Which basically sucks...

Tell them to keep their minimap closed?

Okay ... I've only just now started to read about scripting ... but here goes ...


There is a script used as an OnEnter that checks for a map, if you have it you get the whole area premapped for you.

So, if there a way to reverse this? And also set it as a OnHeartbeat so that every six seconds anything you've explored is erased?

Not without a hak.

There IS a scripting command ExploreAreaForPlayer(), but there isn't an UnexploreAreaForPlayer(), or anything like that. I'd love it - a lot of us would. Maybe we'll get one someday.

Oh well, thanks anyway.

You can put "pins" all over the map with no text. Make sure that the pins cover the whole map and then the player can't see anything. Though the map you do that to will always be unusable.

Hey I warned you in the title that this was a crappy solution.

Just FYI Heartbeat scripts are freking evil! They lag the hell out a a server.
