people who picked "minimap rotates": Could you maybe explain? We've never understood why you would want it to rotate

@Hearth It saves having to mentally rotate the automap to fit what I am seeing from my perspective.

@FreyaManibrandr hmm, that's fair. we do use a "rotating minimap" in the form of our car's satnav system. is this in first- or third-person games that you're thinking of? or both?

@sharkNserg@plush.city @FreyaManibrandr@awoo.space @Hearth@plush.city agreed. It actually annoys me when car nav is fixed with North at the top because I'll occasionally have to pause and figure out what direction I am actually facing. Annoyingly the car I borrowed the other day for a work related trip would occasionally, but not always, put a little point at the marker that showed my current location that indicated which way the car was facing. Thankfully I was familiar with most of the route.
