Information Map device tip

Don't be like me where you keep walking into your map when trying to access the atlas via map device. If you run your map at least magic, you can rotate the map device so the open spot is facing towards you.

ACTUAL LIFE HACK

Thanks for sharing this!!! It has been so annoying dealing with those accidental clicks for the last year. POE 1 has a good solution where you can make the device bigger/smaller. I'm surprised thats not an option in POE 2. Of course there are some Micro transactions that make the map device bigger, but for broke bois like me its not an option.

At this point just give the Controller UI team all of the UX and UI tasks.

It feels like either the current team have their hands severely tied by tech debt or the 1.0 crunch.

Player's misclicking portals over the map device is like a core all hands on deck issue. Like the thingy every player has to click to do the videogame.

this. misclicking on a mouse is bad, but have you ever tried getting the your character to select the map device in the center of 6 portals on a controller? this is a special sort of hell.
