Minimap Graphic?

[XutaWoo]

I think I once made a monster than inherited from MapMarker. I can't remember if I could make it solid and shootable, but it was completely invisible - I had to bring up the automap to see where it was, which was pretty screwy.

ZAsteroids, anyone?

-Invisible.

There's an idea... Objects that link to each other and create custom vector graphics using the minimap drawing code. Probably another feature that wouldn't see much use, but the idea still sounds awesome to me for some reason.

There is a story, true or otherwise, that id had planned to have an Easter egg in the original Doom where you could use the automap for a mini Asteroids game-in-game.

True, and remnants of the code still exist as of the original code release; nothing was actually finished of it, however.
