Summary

Okay got a simple 2x2 canvas. This canvas has a make shift map to learn the make map check box for the graphic menu item. You can call the map by simply pressing start and make it go away by pressing start again. Ok so far. For some reason those when I do the math on paper the "X" (which is blue) seems to be extremely far away from the players actual location on the map.

Okay got a simple 2x2 canvas. This canvas has a make shift map to learn the make map check box for the graphic menu item. You can call the map by simply pressing start and make it go away by pressing start again. Ok so far. For some reason those when I do the math on paper the "X" (which is blue) seems to be extremely far away from the players actual location on the map. I was wondering if the powers that be have a recommendation or if this could be a bug. I have followed the help file to the letter to get it to display player location on the map, etc. It moves as the player moves but it's offset by about 1984 horizontal tiles (64x64) and approximately 1216 on the vertical.

You can see where the player is standing in the image below and where the Blue "X" appears on the map and they are not even in the ballpark. I am sure it may have something to do with the scale of the map vs. the image size but I am not able to lock down the relationship to get it dialed in so the map is visible for the area in one screen - the score board at the top (128 vertical pixels).

Any ideas or anyone know anything I'd appreciate any info that could help.
