UI Improvements and a MiniMap

🌿 Terrarium II – Update v0.0.0.8 Quality‑of‑Life, UI Improvements, Bug Fixes, and Minimap Overhaul 🧭 Minimap Overhaul Added a fully redesigned minimap UI with a circular aesthetic.

Added a color‑tinted minimap background that adapts to biome themes (winter tint added).

Added a compass (N, E, S, W) around the minimap for better navigation.

Added a soft border ring and crosshair lines for improved readability.

Added a zoom slider on the right side of the minimap.

Implemented true minimap zooming using a dynamic source rectangle.

Fixed player marker logic — the player dot now accurately reflects your position at all zoom levels.

Improved minimap color palette to better match Terrarium II’s cozy aesthetic.

📦 Loot & Inventory Fixes Fixed a long‑standing issue where chests could generate invalid items.

Identified and removed tile ID 48 (Fire) from loot tables, which caused:

“Unknown Item” entries

invisible items

crashes when hovering or dragging

corrupted inventory slots

Loot tables are now clean and stable, with no world‑tile items spawning in chests.

🧊 World & Visual Improvements Updated minimap tinting to better reflect seasonal environments (winter biome shown in screenshot).

Improved consistency between world tiles and minimap representation.

🔧 Code Cleanup & Stability Refactored minimap drawing logic for clarity and future expansion.

Added clamping and safety checks to prevent minimap zoom from showing invalid world regions.

Improved UI layering to ensure minimap elements no longer block or hide the background map.

🌟 Summary This update focuses heavily on UI polish, minimap functionality, and inventory stability. The minimap is now a fully interactive, colorful, and zoomable navigation tool. Chest loot is now reliable and free of corrupted items. Overall, v0.0.0.8 brings Terrarium II closer to the cozy, polished experience you’re building.
