Minimap turns black with a lower alpha.

I haven't added this as in an addon yet, but just by doing
/script Minimap:SetAlpha(0.5);

However, this isn't important, what is important is that after like 5 seconds of moving, the minimap turns completely black and wont go back.
Only reverting it to 1 alpha it regains it's former self.

This has me stomped.

*edit*
By adding it as a line in a random addon, the minimap just spawns black. ;X

I'm sure that was a bug since eons ago but no idea if it was fixed or a work-around posted....

this is a comment in one of the addons i use Called Mappy that handles minimap alpha

Code:

-- Force the alpha to 1 if we're indoors.  The minimap doesn't work

-- properly if the alpha isn't 1 (it'll just show solid black) while

-- indoors (in this case, indoors means any major city, inside any building, any dungeon)

-- Detection of 'indoors' is imperfect however, so there are still times that the minimap

-- will go black when you don't want it to

go try it outside and see if it works
