    Request for Future Patches

    I'm sure this has probably been said before, but I can't be bothered to search the forums.

    I have 2 monitor's, and I would LOVE to be able to open up the map and drag it off to the second monitor while leaving my game screen alone. I think this would be very useful for players. Having to stop every 30 feet ingame and open up the map again to make sure I'm going the right way is rather annoying.

    Make it happen SE! <3

    You could probably right your own addon for this if you know how, I doubt it's worth SE dedicating time into something less than 1% of people will have use of.

    Two monitors huh? And what are the rest of us left to do? Rely on that little thing called short-term memory..?

    I see no reason why it cant open into a new window that is resizable, could have it on top of the game screen just off to the side a little. Or make it so we can adjust the transparency of the map, cause as it is I cant see where I'm going through the map. You don't have to be a bitch and shoot down my idea just cause it does not fit your plateform/idea/mind frame perfectly. Its a good idea that warrents attention IMO.

    Wouldnt that be against SE's policy though? Being a "third party program" and all? Plus I have no idea how to do that lol.

    2.0 is going to have addon support...

    Also, you can still run while having a map open.

    I also have two monitors, and although I would like to be able to drag things to my second monitor (such as the map), I'd rather have SE focus on more important things,.. Especially since probably only 1% of the players have two monitors, and there for it wouldn’t benefit the majority of the players… not even by a longshot. Good idea though ^^

    I can read. Did you ever write you knew this? No. You wrote this:

    Which really just sounds like you actually stop in order to see the map.
