I checked, everything works with the new update. Maybe you have another mod that breaks it.

just wanted to mention that, as of today, this mod doesn't work with the most recent version of Build 42 as they added a resizing function for map symbols

@Golem, I'm happy to report that I was wrong. Just been testing this with various mods active and as you say, this mod doesn't mess up anything. The culprit happened to be a clothing mod, Firefighter Uniform
I suspect because it adds a vehicle for B41 but isn't yet ready for the vehicle to be added to B42.
My apologies for any concerns & bad information

@StainlessSteelCynic
The version of the mod for [B42] does not currently use any scripts, the game simply loads the symbols into itself. (Therefore, conflicts with other mods are not possible.)

If you play [B41], there may be a conflict only with mods that use map-related scripts.

I have a weird issue where when active, this mod causes the vehicle dashboard to disappear whenever I get into a vehicle.
I have a number of other mods active so it's possible that some other mod won't place nice with this one, I just don't know which mod it could be.
I have many vehicle mods active along with a number of clothing and item mods but very few map/map symbol mods.
I have zero skill for modding so my apologies that this isn't not a lot of help but maybe this will give someone an idea of where to look for any possible conflict?

not sure if it was this mod causing this issue but i was using an icon from it on map placement. i had some houses marked with icons from this mod i believe and when i logged back in, they were just giant black squares instead of the icon i had placed. i couldn't delete them or anything.
SecretFear 7 Mar @ 12:36pm 
B42 needs the advanced placement. That interface is so much better/more convenient.

Well, I have been running tests with this mod. It works in single player for me. However, it will not work in multiplayer at all. The only other map mod I have is the "Bic Pen", so I know I don't have any incompatibilities. Does any anyone have any suggestion(s)?
MrZhu 18 Feb @ 10:28am 
can add bed icon?
p3st|cIdE 15 Feb @ 11:20am 
just noticed the fish pole and bags on the ToolGuns page. Good stuff!
p3st|cIdE 15 Feb @ 5:00am 
maybe a cocktail glass icon for bars? Pool cue or 8-ball.
We need things to help mark special locations on the map. like.. a locomotive. An airplane. A shopping cart. Fishing pole / hook. Maybe a pitchfork for farm? Things we're coming back later for... A sports car?
I often need to mark where I dropped some bag full o' loot. Some bag symbol would be great.
SashaDeminova 8 Feb @ 6:56pm 
Might I suggest a bottle/mug icon, for bars? I like to keep track of where alcohol is for disinfecting purposes :)

If you'd like, I could even whip up the icon myself and send it to you - I just don't know if there's anything specific that you'd like for line styles and stuff.

@Insane Hexe
the version for B41 did not change at all, I checked by downloading the B41 and B42 versions from the workshop and everything worked. Need more info
Insane Hexe 18 Jan @ 8:10pm 
seems like since last update the icons are buggy and the selection menu on the bottom is fully gone B41

@RunYouCleverBoy
Maybe when multiplayer or a stable version comes out. The build in development might add something else to the interface capabilities.
RunYouCleverBoy 18 Jan @ 3:25am 
@Golem, ouh..
the your interface is seem beetter than vanilla (it small scrollable menu where hard to find category) Can u make same for b42?
Golem  [author] 18 Jan @ 3:22am 
@RunYouCleverBoy
You just need to enable Add More Map Symbols (AMMS) it is the only one now. The new modding structure allows you to create a mod for different versions of the game. In build 42, the developers expanded the game's capabilities by adding tabs, so I used them. In build 41, this was not the case, so we created our own interface. The mod will automatically select the build of the game you are playing. The only difference is in the interface, the essence of the mod remains the same.
Golem  [author] 18 Jan @ 3:06am 
@Shimoichi
Settings: Go to the UI menu "Second Tab" > "Fronts" and increase the font size and restart the game. This will make the UI elements larger.
Shimoichi 17 Jan @ 11:17pm 
Can I make ui window bigger?
I am actually blind, and with 2k resolution I can't see icons
RunYouCleverBoy 17 Jan @ 10:51pm 
on screenshots and video u have bottom category menu which are not vanilla and not added by ur mod. it confusing and seem unfair. pls let me know - which mod add this?
(and combability list better to have links (i cant find several mods))

B42 Plz~
Golem  [author] 26 Dec, 2024 @ 3:53pm 
@matteokmp No. Needs a complete overhaul.
TheGermanyCharizard 26 Dec, 2024 @ 10:31am 
B42 Update Pleas!
matteokmp 26 Dec, 2024 @ 7:05am 
Is this mod compatible with B42?
Gunlan 5 May, 2024 @ 2:13am 
I was playing with an old notebook like didn't even should be able because didn't get the minimum requirement but with some mods i somehow managed to get it run. Seems like the game now is more optimized. Still there was some weird things like for example the thing that happened with your mod but solved by updating to a new pc
Gunlan 5 May, 2024 @ 2:09am 
Btw i brought a new pc and now a monitor thatt support 1080 so now the mod is fits okay thank you for the mod the all option still a lot of map symbols but that's the idea right? I combine it with others map mods and runs perfect

@Golem
I reckon so as well, for the issue is not only unsolved but seems to get more complex as of late.

I would make clear of what I've known from my still-going bizzare testing here: AMMS works with Share Annotations mod in a new mp save and I assume that's normally, but not in my praticular mp server as the main game I'm hosting.

During my long af debugging I found out that if I cleared the map of markers I could respawn normally, that led my suspicion to map symbols relating mods and I nailed the culprit being Share Annotations, disabled it and the respawn is fine.

But then again both mods works with no problem in a new mp save and a new sp save, and then in the earlier days of the current mp save I'm having problems with there weren't any.

There is definitely something else wrong going on but so far no such luck on busting the myth.

Thanks for finding the problem. I will add to the description that there may be a conflict with Share Annotation.
Maybe, although I assume that there is most likely something else there.
>) 19 Apr, 2024 @ 11:51pm 
@Golem
Yup, I nailed it: It was Share Annotation mod. I disabled it and the game is fine, so is your mod.

What is still peculiar is that as I recall in the early stage of the mp game both mods seem work fine together, perhaps it's something to do with the sheer numbers of annoations I reckon?
>) 19 Apr, 2024 @ 10:54pm 
@Golem
I got a new discovery I happened to stumble on and it's quite important: as it turns out, if i cleared the symbols on my map then the respawn are without issue now.

Considering that AMMS is purely adding in new symbols and does not interfere with anything else, I'm now suspecting that the mod Share Annoations could somehow be the culprit? Because that mod lets you see the markers other players share to you with a piece of paper, and more papers? More symbols. Even tho there are checkboxs for each time others share with you.

@Golem
I tried both things you mentioned and the outcomes are... bizzare to say the least.

First of all due to some other mods that added new zones like authentic z, run the server with only your mod is not possible.

And putting AMMS lower in priority didn't work neither, and the $hits pz gave me just.. wow. The black screens are still there, but when I host a game again, guess what? I'm not dead! Surprised! And I will be in the position prior to I died. It's like the game didn't realize I died so it put me back in time a bit.

Then I put the AMMS in higher priority instead of lower, then it works. I died, i spawned, twice. It even gave me back the skill points I got from progressive character creation mod.

Finally I saw hope, I restored the save with the backup, get in game and end myself. Boom, still black screen. And my points are gone again.

So at this point I'm certainly at a loss of words, not sure how you'd feel about this

@Golem
Got it, I will try that a bit later since I'd got some stuffs irl. I will post anything I find after I'm through with the tests.
Golem  [author] 18 Apr, 2024 @ 8:33am 
@>)
Since you installed the mod in the middle of the game. If you have (Mod Manager) installed, try putting my mod lower in priority (Put it at the top of the list, if I'm not mistaken) so that other mods have priority over it. Maybe this will help.

The main thing is to make a backup of your save.
>) 18 Apr, 2024 @ 8:14am 
@Golem
I know right? So that was really, really weird and it was booming the crap outta us.

As for the questions: I haven't but I will try running mp with your mod later. And I did not modify your mod in any way, I did use some interface mods tho, but no conflicts that I'm sure of.

And the weird thing is: I tried with a new mp save earlier and it was all fine. I kinda suspect could this be some kind of problem with the game world or smth, because I did add your mod half way through the game.
Golem  [author] 18 Apr, 2024 @ 6:03am 
@>)
Strange error. The mod refers to the map file and does not affect the interface or any other game windows, only the map window.

Have you tried running multiplayer only with my mod installed?

Maybe you edited the game files or are there conflicts with some other mods (Interface-related)?
>) 18 Apr, 2024 @ 4:39am 
@Golem
Good mod and it's been utterly useful since installing, yet I had ran into a rather peculiar issue lately: whenever I try to spawn in MP as the host after dying the game will always go black screen, with only chatbox remains, not even right click menu works.

Before the seemingly inevitable black screen, the chatacter creation menu is working fine, the spawn location menu, it's just me unable to spawn that's all.

Sadly there're no logs I can provide, for I'd gone through the console.txt over and over and found nothing related to AMMS, which makes this a complete mystery to me lolol any thoughts?
Golem  [author] 17 Mar, 2024 @ 8:01am 
@Gerard ジェラルド
The mod has been adapted to a resolution of 1366x768. The game developers do not recommend using a resolution lower than 1280x720, although it can be changed by editing the file. Therefore, it will most likely not be possible to correct interface overlap if this happens.
Gunlan 12 Mar, 2024 @ 12:45am 
Can i change the resolution? I am currently playing in a potato pc and is too big so i can see well the map
Reigdaer 15 Feb, 2024 @ 4:23pm 
i really like this mod, but the icos are "perfect" for a handmade "survivor-on-the-run" draw XD

Golem  [author] 10 Jan, 2024 @ 3:11am 
@aquelarrefox Hi, the person who helped with writing the code has moved away from developing mods for now. So there won’t be any functional changes for now. Maybe when I play "PZ" again I'll add new icons.
aquelarrefox 9 Jan, 2024 @ 3:48pm 
a question related to a feature to be used with gps mod, is it posible to add a mark with a note with the coordenades of the mark or get a button in the note propt line to autocomplete with the mark coordenades. both ingame map and paper maps?
Nobody 29 Nov, 2023 @ 5:36pm 
The mod author of this mod gave up the mod long ago, do not expect an update anytime soon. May want to make a fork until they return.
Yuumi 29 Nov, 2023 @ 12:05am 
This mod seems to be incompatible with Detailed Map, and when both are enabled, opening the map will result in an error message
The Ratt 21 Nov, 2023 @ 1:28pm 
Is this mod compatible with the shared faction map mod? This looks incredibly good and I'm very excited to try it. If I find out it is or isn't compatible before you get back to me, I'll let you know.
