This wonderful game has a ton of irritating bugs that have been around for ages, and no one's fixed them because "if it works, don't touch it." I'll tell you about one of them. The game has a very flexible interface, and sometimes I find it convenient to position the map in the corner of the screen and watch fate events appear on it. But every time I accidentally or intentionally close the map and then reopen it, I see this: my character is in the middle of the map window, and part of the map is outside the frame. And every time, I have to center it so the entire map fits within the window. To prevent this, there's a "Center map on player location" button, but here's the problem: this toggle button (not to be confused with a regular push button) resets to the "on" position every time the map is reopened (or perhaps when it's closed), and I always see the player in the center, regardless of whether I've enabled it or not. I think this problem can be solved with code that takes 15-20 minutes. It also seems to me that this problem has been solved in third-party modifications that are STRICTLY PROHIBITED IN THIS GAME UNDER PENALTY OF BLOCKING AND LOSS OF ALL DECADE PROGRESS.
