Move with map open?

Would it be that hard to make it so that you can move while you have the map open. Once a level is cleared and you want to as quickly as possible move from one point to another it would be nice to be able to walk with the map open, I used to do it in Dungeon Hack all the time :D.

I don't know if this is something that it would be easy for the devs to patch in at a convenient future date or if its something a modder could mod in but it's something I'd be interested in at some point.

Yeah, I've had the map open a few times expecting the little blue arrow to move as I pushed a key to move. :D

Already on this with my mini-map topic ;). I had a very similar gripe.

I feel this would be a good compromise for those that wanted a mini-map. In my opinion a tiny mini-map in the corner would be a bit much. With this option you've got your map, but using it leaves you fully vulnerable to attack and traps.

- Minimap: Not a cheat. It simulates the peripheral vision and spatial awareness of 4 party members. The limited Field of View provided by a monitor is not realistic.

- Move with map open: Should be enabled. Realistically, 1 of your 4 party members should be able to look at a map while walking.
