Increased Map Detail When Zoomed Out
New, NormalPublic

Description

In-game using the map when zoomed out the indication of roads and forests disappear:


However, in 3DEN when using the terrain textures it shows these features:

It would be nice to see a way to turn this on or off, either scriptable or in settings. Or to just have it implemented into the normal player map. The map with the roads drawn regardless of zoom looks very nice and is easier to use when planning routes.

Will this ever be a possibility? Recently went into the Editor and was reminded of this difference. It would make the in-game map look substantially better than it does currently.

agreed. especially for large terrains is seriously hampers the ability to navigate or plan as you have to zoom in a lot.

it might be either a legacy setup thing from OFP days (ie due to performance) or actually the introduction of shape files for roads in A3 broke the standard 2d map functionality (and only Eden got fixed/made shp file data to work also zoomed out)
