Mini map

Trying to get a minimap happening.
I think it's a matter of making a new or adjusting existing drawing routine to have a scaled map in a different picture box.  I can do two things with the current build.
1) put a foggy map in both picture boxes

2) draw a player (on move, not initially) in a fixed place on the minimap


What I'd like to have is the minimap at a different scale and for the player to be centred.
I'll see what I can achieve tonight.

*edit*
So.. something more to show... not to scale, and not following the player properly, but... mini map displayed


 *edit*
Even better now.  Map will display at a different scale to the big map.

Still some issues around player placement, movement, development etc.  but at least it's showing something!
