Hey, folks super stuck here maybe one of you Arma Dev Gods can help finish this off.
PURPOSE OF CODE:
I am trying to build a mini-map like in the game Squad. So you don't have to come out of the game to check your map.
WHY:
This would be extremely helpful to folks who are flying in jets so they don't crash when they come out of the game to check their map.
I have most of the map working to include positioning. I just can't figure out how to create an open and close feature to call the map. I am not sure how to bind a key to open or close the map.
There is also a map line marker error I can't figure out as well. So maybe someone with more skill can finish this out and share the code.
THOUGHTS:
This would have to work multiplayer for each faction player. Maybe triggered from onPlayerRespawn.sqf
Credit Goes To Larrow for map code
Any help highly appreciated

CODE BELOW:
init.sqf
fnc_updateMiniMap = {
_map = _this select 0;
_map ctrlMapAnimAdd [0, 0.05, player];
ctrlMapAnimCommit _map;
};
waitUntil { time > 0 };
//Show MiniMap
( [ "myMiniMap" ] call BIS_fnc_rscLayer ) cutRsc [ "myMap", "PLAIN", 1, false ];
