Disabling the move map to player location

[cannonouscrash 12]

On the map, there is a button in the top right which moves the map to your current location, albeit zoomed out.

Does anyone know of way to disable this?

[Larrow 2797]

h = [] spawn {
disableSerialization;
while {true} do {
	waitUntil { visibleMap };
	_display = uiNamespace getVariable "RSCDiary";
	_ctrl = _display displayCtrl 1202;
	_ctrl ctrlEnable false;
	_ctrl ctrlsettextcolor [0,0,0,0];
	_ctrl ctrlSetTooltip "";
	_ctrl ctrlCommit 0;
	waitUntil { !visibleMap };
};
};

Disables and hides the button. Needs to constantly run (like above) to remove the button each time the map is opened.

This is pretty awesome, I've been trying to get rid of that as well. Thanks for posting! :)

Better off using some of the new event handlers nowadays rather than this while loop. See addMissionEventHandler Map.

Like this?

addMissionEventHandler ["Map", 
	{_mapIsOpened;
	_display = uiNamespace getVariable "RSCDiary";
	_ctrl = _display displayCtrl 1202;
	_ctrl ctrlEnable false;
	_ctrl ctrlsettextcolor [0,0,0,0];
	_ctrl ctrlSetTooltip "";
	_ctrl ctrlCommit 0;
};
];

 

[Larrow 2797]

addMissionEventHandler[ "Map", {
	params[ "_mapIsOpened" ];
	
	if ( _mapIsOpened ) then {
		_display = uiNamespace getVariable "RSCDiary";
		_ctrl = _display displayCtrl 1202;
		_ctrl ctrlEnable false;
		_ctrl ctrlSetTextColor [0,0,0,0];
		_ctrl ctrlSetTooltip "";
		_ctrl ctrlCommit 0;
	};
}];

untested
