How it works

What players see when they press ESC, and what the map can do.

The menu

ESC or P flies the camera up to a live 3D map of the real city. The tabs sit in a dock along the bottom: Map, Settings, City status, News, Rules, Keys, Discord, Leave and Close. City status shows the character card, money, session time, total playtime, who is online, how many police, EMS and mechanics are on duty, the clock, the weather and where you are.

  • News page with a badge for what you have not read. Admins write it in game.
  • A countdown to the next restart next to the server name.
  • A Keys page with the keys of your server.
  • Small buttons that copy your website, TikTok, YouTube or any other link.

The city map

  • Drag to move, scroll to zoom, Q and E to rotate, R and T to tilt. Holding the right mouse button does both.
  • Right click or double click sets a destination, on a place or a blip. The same again removes it. The route is drawn on the map.
  • X marks your own point of interest in the middle of the lens. X on it again removes it.
  • The rail on the right has every kind of blip. Point at one and those light up, click to walk through them, tick the box to hide that kind. F searches.
  • Postal numbers show when zoomed in and area names when zoomed out.
  • H shows fewer markers and M opens the game's own map.
  • Arrows at the edge of the map point to you and your destination when they are out of view.
  • The whole state fits on the screen, live. The haze and clouds are gone on the way up, and the map stays clear at midday whatever the weather unless you turn on real time.

Settings

Every player has a Settings tab, saved on their own computer: language, menu size, what ESC opens on, sounds, animations, marker size, local places, arrows at the edge, postal numbers and area names. A setting a player has not touched follows the server. The button at the bottom opens the game's own settings for graphics, audio, voice chat and keys.

Sight limit

The map camera can fly anywhere, so by default it hides cars, people and players more than 20 metres from your character. That keeps the map fair for roleplay. You can change the distance or turn it off.
