I can’t find a way to get rid of the minimap in the upper right hand corner. It takes up a lot of space and is not necessary for my game. Is there any way to remove it?
You have to place a HUD controller device and turn off the parts you dont want.
You can hide any UI elements, it’s just a matter of finding the right IDs for them. For example, the following function hides basically the entire fortnite UI.
var HudElementsToHide: []hud_element_identifier = array{ creative_hud_identifier_all{}, hud_identifier_world_resource_wood{}, hud_identifier_world_resource_stone{}, hud_identifier_world_resource_metal{} }
var HudInteractionElements: []hud_element_identifier = array{ creative_hud_identifier_interaction_prompts{} }
if(PlayerUI := GetPlayerUI[Player]) :
PlayerUI.HideHUDElements(HudElementsToHide)
PlayerUI.ShowHUDElements(HudInteractionElements)
So, first I have an array of all the things to hide, then I have a second array of the one thing I want to actually show. In my experience, you would think you could just use creative_hud_identifier_all, but that doesn’t seem to really mean “all.”
However, doing this hides interaction prompts for button and switches…so that’s why I then SHOW just the interaction prompts.
In your case, if you’re just trying to hide the minimap, you can maybe just use “creative_hud_identifier_mimimap”.
Note, all the identifiers are in the file Fortnite.digest.verse so you can kind of browse your options there.
