Minimap icons events

Hello.

I was wondering if there is an event to capture when and which icon has been added to your minimap (I'm talking about icons like a mailbox, vendor or everything else that aren't vignettes).

Thanks!

Quick answer is no. You would be better off telling what you are wanting to achieve with these types of minimap icons.

It was curiosity, there are some treasures that appear on the minimap that aren't vignettes (random treasures around The Broken Islands), so there is no way to alert from them. I guess this is intended

Thanks for your answer.

If it's not covered by VIGNETTE_ADDED it can't be done.

If you only want to cover random treasures around Broken Isles you could however keep a list of all the coordinates for them and check if they are found already by the player (they are tracked by hidden quests), then display a warning when they get close to it.
That is basically what HandyNotes does, without the alerts.
