As said easy way to find units is zoom out & switch ID tags on, saves a lot of time keeping your units cohesive as well due to all units of the formation being highlighted.
Mini map for me is just a fast way to centre the map on the area I want.

Which is really all it was ever intended for but in the days of 640x480 is showed larger than it does now. The other thing I would LIKE to do..... (which does NOT mean it WILL get done.....there are lots of things I would like to do that don't and never will)..... is this

Click on or mouse over the main map and get this



mouse over or click on the mini map and get this


so if you are using a full 200x160 map you see it all on the mini,so no scrolling required

in this hypothetical scenario, would it be possible to have the mini map in a small (as is now or similar) size and when you move your mouse over the mini map (or click) you get the expanded version?

What would be the point ? It interferes with nothing unless you are running one of the low resolutions and it would only apply to the CD version

It would be easier to glance over the mini map without having to move the mouse pointer there.
