How to make Blips in Mission Maps

posted on January 15th, 2012, 8:02 am

I'm working on a mission map where I want to tell the player to go explore "over there".  In Armada missions, that was done with white blips on the map to direct the player.  How does one create a blip?

I assume this is the function you'd want to emulate addMinimapMark( position, radius, shrinkRate, color ) - The Hitchhiker's Guide to Fleet Operations

Thanks for the help!  Working great.

  local pos = Vector(1000, 0, 1000)
  local col = Color(40, 40, 40)
  UI:addMinimapMark( pos, 10, 1.1, col )
