minimap

I have no idea who is mapmaker these days and i don't even know
if it's possible, but i think minimap could be massively
improved to suit ST better.
Maybe I am spoiled by better minimaps of dota 2/league etc and
just not used to this antiquated minimap situationz yet, as i
have not played ST much lately, but here are my thoughts on it:
i always find myself trying to use it every few seconds but it
feels so muddled and the information often unclear or blocked by
unnecessary shit.
1. you can't see sheep 1/2 the time (if they are in their own
color, or even similar color of farms)
2. the ping animation is shit. way too transparent so it blends
with farm colors etc and it's an unnecessarily big giant circle
that lasts way too long
3. the wolf icons are shit. zoom+moving screen is better tool
for finding wolves ffs. imagine a smaller, neat orc raider face
icon with a black outline so it stands out
4. every time one of your farms is completed there's that green
circle that blinks, so you look down at minimap and there's just
a giant green clusterfuck of circles.
5. the only real useful thing about minimap as sheep is pressing
D to see allies... which tbh you shouldn't even have to do, and
it's the same animation as the freaking green clusterfuck
circles. there should just be tiny icons for sheep too. i dunno,
maybe then wolf teamwork would become too easy? so only the
sheep team get the sheep iconz? i think it just adds more of a
clear teamwork dynamic into game when everyone gets that
information easily and can see game situation. it also removes
or at least reduces zoom advantage ( i prefer to play without
zoom but it's pretty much required zzz...)
it could be a challenging and fun project to overhaul the
minimap for some mapmaker gogo make it naiiiiiceeee

The Locate allies ping can be set to Flashy i believe or
Warning, they should be more visible.
For the rest I don't know if this is possible.
