Calculating Source Overview/Radar map X/Y and Scale
polycounter lvl 15
I am building an overview/radar map exporter into Wall Worm. But right now I'm having a problem figuring out the correct pos_x, pos_y and scale of the text file that controls the overview map.

My gut tells me that the pos_x and pos_y are already correct but the scale is wrong. But I may be wrong.
What I am doing is creating an orthogonal view from above. Once the user sets the viewport to the required position and zoom, this is how I'm calculating the values (which are not working properly in Source):
Any ideas?

mapsize = 32768 local vpTransform = inverse (viewport.getTM()) local pos_x = vpTransform[4].x local pos_y = vpTransform[4].y local outScale = mapsize / (gw.getVPWorldWidth [0,0,0] )
Any ideas?
