Description

Simple Minimap

Simple Minimap adds a lightweight in-game minimap to Subnautica 2 with a player marker, heading indicator, and an optional larger map view. The minimap is drawn directly on the HUD using UE4SS Lua scripting, and it appears in the top-right corner by default with the option to toggle it on or off at any time. A larger centered map view is also included for easier navigation.

WHITE MAP BUG WITH VORTEX INSTALL IS NOW FIXED.
FOG OF WAR IS NOW AVAILABLE. You can disable it by editing the configuration file like this:

lua

FogOfWar = {

    Enabled = false,

    GridWidth = 57,

    GridHeight = 24,

    RevealRadius = 2,

    SaveFile = "fog_state.dat",

    FogAlpha = 0.95,

},

Features

Adds a simple minimap overlay to the HUD.
Shows the player’s position on the map.
Shows the player’s heading and direction.
Includes a toggleable large map view.
Fully configurable size, position, opacity, keybinds, update interval, marker size, and marker colors.
Supports MapGenie-based projection and calibration.
Lightweight Lua mod built with UE4SS.

Controls

Default keybinds:

M — Open or close the large map.
H — Hide or show the minimap.

These can be changed in config.lua. The mod registers the configured keys from config.lua, where OpenMapKey is set to M and HideMapKey is set to H.

Installation

Download and install UE4SS – Subnautica 2 from Modsportal.
Go to your Subnautica 2 install folder.
Open the UE4SS mods folder:
- Subnautica2/Binaries/Win64/ue4ss/Mods/
- For Game Pass / WinGDK versions, use:
  - Subnautica2/Binaries/WinGDK/ue4ss/Mods/
Create a folder named SubnauticaMapMod.
Place the mod files inside:
- SubnauticaMapMod/
- └── all lua

Configuration

See config.lua.

Vortex bug

For reasons unknown, Vortex ignores anything that is not a .lua file, so .png files may be renamed to .png.lua.

Troubleshooting

If the minimap does not appear:

Make sure UE4SS is installed correctly.
Make sure main.lua and config.lua are directly inside the SubnauticaMapMod folder.
If you notice FPS issues, increase the UpdateIntervalMs value in the config file.
