General Settings
- am_usecustomcolors (boolean)
- default: true
- When true, the automap uses the colors specified by the am_* cvars (See below), otherwise it uses the standard automap colors for the game being played.
- am_cheat (integer)
- default: 0
- The status of the automap cheat. This value can be changed directly from the console to cheat, or it can be modified the old fashioned way with cheat codes. Valid values are:
- 0: No cheat. Only level architecture the player has seen is shown.
- 1: All architecture is shown, regardless of whether or not the player has seen it. Equivalent to one input of the Doom iddt cheat.
- 2: In addition to the previous, shows all things in the map as arrows pointing in the direction they are facing. Equivalent to two inputs of the Doom iddt cheat.
- 3: In addition to the previous, all things are wrapped in a box showing their size. There is no iddt cheat for this, as this functionality was added to ZDoom and is not a carryover from vanilla Doom.
- am_overlay (boolean)
- default: false
- Normally, the togglemap command switches the automap between fully off and fully on. Setting this cvar to "1" will enable an intermediate automap mode in which the automap is drawn over the top of the 1st-person view, allowing you to view the map without taking you away from the game world. Using togglemap will then cycle between the three modes.
- am_rotate (boolean)
- default: false
- Normally, the automap is always drawn such that north is at the top of the screen. Setting this cvar to "1" causes the automap to be drawn so that lines toward the top of the screen are always directly in front of the player's view. This can be particularly useful when the automap is overlayed.
- am_showitems (boolean)
- default: false
- When true, the fullscreen automap will display a count of all the "special" items you have found on the map. These are the same items that are used to determine the Items stat on the intermission screen.
- am_showmonsters (boolean)
- default: true
- When true, the fullscreen automap will display a count of the number of monsters that have been killed in the current level and the total number of monsters in the level.
- am_showsecrets (boolean)
- default: true
- When true, the fullscreen automap will display a count of the number of secrets that have been found in the current level and the total number of secrets in the level.
- am_showtime (boolean)
- default: true
- When true, the fullscreen automap will display the total amount of time you have been in a level (excluding time that has been paused).
