I'm looking for an addon that will make the size of my character's arrow on the world map bigger. I'm one of those people who is always lost lol. I travel around often with my world map open, mosty when mining or herbing but also in unfamiliar areas. The arrow that represents my position on the map is sometimes hard for me to see. It would be great to be able to make it bigger and/or another color besides white. If someone knows of an existing addon that can do this please let me know.
In the interim, you might try just making the little "echolocation ping" circles around your player arrow last longer. By default they only pulse for one second after you display the world map. Try pasting this into the game just to see if it helps:
And change the 10 there as needed. (Once you paste all that in, you can recall the line in your chat window by pressing Enter to open the edit box, then Alt-UpArrow to go through history. Use Alt-LeftArrow to go back to the 10 and change it up or down.)
I generally found that to be preferable to finding my arrow, because larger arrows started obscuring stuff on the map nearby.
Thanks so much guys. I downloaded the addon and it helps some. Would love to see something with a bit more user control for size, color, and enable/disable command. Not too demanding am I lol.
Thanks again!
