### Additional Features
A configurable north direction! I'm not a big fan of north pointing to the
bottom left corner of the screen, and I bet you aren't either. So here you go!
Either use the commandline option --north-direction, or use the option
north_direction in the settings file. Valid options are 'lower-left',
'upper-left', 'upper-right', and 'lower-right'. I'm partial to 'upper-right',
myself.
### Additional Bugs
With very small testing maps, the upper-right direction seems to exacerbate an
existing bug that will not let you click on a sign in some cases. This is a
bang-head-on-desk sort of thing, I should be able to find it but I cannot.
Somehow it does seem to work fine on my actual SMP map, but there is a good
chance that is just luck.
Some blocks don't rotate properly in the upper-left and lower-right directions.
This is an easy fix, it just takes time. And besides, the upper-right is what
you are really looking for, anyway. Probably.
It's slow! One of the rotation methods is very, very inefficient. It needs to be
rewritten, but I don't seem to be smart enough to do it right now. I must
investigate! No hard numbers but I will run a benchmark soon.
### Upstream
Once I've squashed some bugs and cleaned up the code a bit, I will see about
getting this included in the official Minecraft Overviewer.
