Out with the old, in with the new sort of deal here. The old map system as Frankie said is simply old and was far too much work to maintain. Currently the map system requires very little staff management as it can generate map images very quickly. Right now, the radar and the "M" map use the same map image to display content to players. There are a few features that aren't well known though.

For instance, you can change the size of your radar by hovering over and scrolling up or down. You can also right click the minimap to increase its transparency. You can even hover over icons on the map to view names of buildings, and even who controls a certain base.

Also, I've recently re-scripted the entire mailing system as well. I'll be doing the same with car missions too. But, the new map system allows you to quickly spot where your to deliver a letter.

Sorry for any inconveniences, but the new map system had far more features than the existing map system. It was an inevitable change.

Any other questions or concerns? If there's something you don't really like, or something that should be improved, feel free to post it here.
