How's that sound?

If you have two monitors, put the map up on the second one?

[Khobai]

will the battle map suddenly have a purpose then?

[Aetes Nakatomi]

I would pay good money for that.

Almost did a spit-take there.

But seriously, I would love to see this implemented.

[Chromehound_09]

Yes please!

[Mystere]

I can already predict PGI's answer -- It's a "technical issue" -- just like everything else it seems.

[cSand]

Great idea +1000000

[Zeoraimer]

+1 yes please.

[Roadkill]

Lostech.

[patataman]

+1. I use 2 monitors too, and would love to be able to open the map in the secondary.

[Helsbane]

Wasn't that their plan for that giant controller they were building with Razer a few years back? It had a small monitor in the center that was supposed to be the battlemap screen...

may be able to just us a standard separate monitor and increase the image size on the second monitor and relocate the map to fit. Probably best if using high rez as main monitor and the mirror on lower rez monitor.

Technically possible good chance at maybe yes. Comfortably useable - good chance for probably no.

I run 3 monitors. Can I have the game on the main one, the scoreboard on the secondary, and the map on the tertiary?

It was 'gonna happen' way back when with an actual joystick setup. Never happened...but the second monitor thing was conceptualized so its probably actual doable.

As I said, they have "technical issues".

You waited two years for that phonetics opportunity, didn't you...

Good one, I woke up the dog with the laugh on that one.

[Brandarr Gunnarson]

Great idea!

They could make it more functional while they're at it!
