How to render only Parts of the Minimap?
I got an Labyrinthgame. Everytime the user comes to an dead end there is a little Object he can pick up to unlock a part of the minimap. In the beginning there is no minimap only when he picks up the first part. I tried using Blocks to block the view of the minimap camera and disabling them when the user picks up a map piece but I don´t want to have such an ugly black minimap where only a part is visible.
Using a screenshot from the Minimap and apply textures onto the blocks also won´t work because the color of the minimap should change when the user comes close to the end.
Okay, solved the problem by using Depth Masks on the blocks that prevent the sight.
For everyone who want to do something like that do that:
Assets -> create Shader
Delete everything and enter following code:
Shader "DepthMask"
{
SubShader
{
Tags {"Queue" = "Geometry-1" }
Lighting Off
Pass
{
ZWrite On
ZTest LEqual
ColorMask 0
}
}
}
apply to a material and use that material on the blocks which should prevent sight.
