Big GUI Update (0.21.0 Alpha)
Big Block Engine » Devlog
This update brings some big new features to the GUI:
- Map Window
- Allows viewing a map of the whole world
- It's also clickable for fast navigation
- Mini-Map
- Allows viewing a map of the immediate area around the user's view
- In-Game Console Window
- For viewing the log, even from full screen mode
- Eventually, there will be a way to type commands, as well
There are a number of internal changes to how the GUI functions that an end user wouldn't ever notice, but that are already making my life easier.
Here's an animated gif demonstrating some of this (you can't see the cursor, but clicking in the map window moves the world view):
