Heh, seriously though, I'm working on putting ramps into the full-screen map in minimap, which makes it far easier to figure out your way through a dungeon. The maths that pulls it off is stupidly complicated, and there's quite a few 'odd' dungeons that hadn't rendered properly, so I'm taking a little time to make sure it's right, but it's almost there.

I'm hoping to allow the ability to mark locations of interest on the map as well- I can get it to pick up portals automatically for example, but things like traps would need user-input, as there's no way decal can tell you where traps are (believe me, I've tried).

Awesome! This would make my life so much easier. One question - will the 'walls' on the full screen map turn blue as you pass, like on the mini map?

I have to say... I've only been using your radar add-on/mini map for a couple of months (I've been back since October after 6 year vacation from AC)... I couldn't function very well patch day without it.

I had to run thru the old Olthoi acid vault or whatever for the stinging stone.

No skunkvision to light up the dungeon, no mini-map to tell me where I've been - ran in circles for 10 minutes before feeling my way through.

Thanks for the effort. Castle would be a pain without it.

EDIT: Have you been out to the Ghost Hunter Quest under the Castle, where you use the "detector" to locate Ghosts, and then another gem to pull them out? Anyway to use a plugin to locate those spots?
