Blocking out map on briefing screen

[Ruste]

On the briefing screen it shows where everything is on the map, even when you are randomly put on there.

Now this really gives away an important aspect of my mission, because you know where the opposition is before you get into the game.

So is there any way to not see the map in the intro? Ive tried putting loads of markers on but its not very effective and makes the screen all pausey.

Thanks

A possible solution is hiding important west-markers for east and vice-versa.

U can use "Important_Marker" setmarkersize[0,0] ,or

"Important_marker" setmarkertype "empty"

Hope this helps...

Nah, I think he means..
Say you have just been droped out a plane.. You have no idea where you are..
He doesn't want you to be able to say.. "Hey, here we are, were marked on the map! And hey, there some enemys coming over that hill!"
:hmm:

What about a huge marker that covers the whole map?

Why not use the showMap command.
Simply execute on all machines that should not see the map:
showMap false
then they'll just see a black screen when they go to the map...however the Notepad etc is still there.
May let them have a GPS
