particles on minimap
Is there a way to disable particles when building the minimap?

I have an area with lots of little coloured dots floating around. It's supposed to be very subtle, but the minimap shows them all at the same time, making them cover the whole area.

If you just turn off the particles in the view? Does that work for you?

There is always evil somewhere, you just have to look for it properly.

I think it only adds objects that are embedded to terrain to the minimap.

That would make sense, but they're defined as constants. Here's screenshot of this part of the world. The little red and yellow dots are particles, and you can see how they 'ruin' the minimap.

currently there's no way to remove particles from minimap,
if your map is small, then you can manually delete particle objects, build world, build minimaps

It's quite a big map, and i plan to include lots of particles on most of it. If I make a copy of the world, delete the particles, build the minimap, and copy it to the original world, will the coördinates still be correct?
