Summary
A lightweight Quality-of-Life mod that automatically centers the vanilla in-game map on the player's exact position every time it is opened.
Description
Stop wasting valuable seconds searching for your position icon on a vast map.
AutoCenterMap is a focused Quality-of-Life (QoL) mod designed to streamline your land navigation workflow in Arma Reforger.
How it works: Every time you open your map (default key 'M'), the mod executes a clean script that hooks into the map entity. It immediately detects your character's current world coordinates and utilizes the game's native smooth panning function to center the map view directly on you.
Key Features:
- Instant Centering: The map view snaps/pans to your location immediately upon opening.
- Maintains Immersion: Crucially, this mod does not add any new markers, dots, or UI elements. It relies entirely on the vanilla map mechanics.
- Respects Zoom: The mod centers the map while preserving your current zoom level.
- Full Control: The feature can be toggled on or off to suit your playstyle.
What’s New in 1.2.0:
- Removed Shortcut: The previous shortcut (STRG + L) has been removed to avoid keybind clutter.
- Gameplay Options: You can now find the toggle directly in the game's Settings -> Gameplay tab. Simply look for "Enable Auto Center Map" to activate or deactivate the feature.
Feedback & Suggestions:
I am constantly looking to improve the mod! If you have feedback, find a bug, or have ideas for new features, feel free to reach out.
