How do I make a map in a 3D game?
I want to make a 3D racing car RP game from the 3D car coin hunt game, but I need a map. I don’t have the slightest idea how to do it, though.
The expected result
What I want, is that the game runs and in the top right corner, theres a map of where you are.

A simple way to do this is to make a map and the player or dot in the map (I’ll call it MapPlayer) as two objects,
and add/subtract MapPlayer’s position when the player is moving (i.e., the player is moving forward, add MapPlayer’s Y position by 0.1 [the number depends on your map size])
Another way is to add invisible objects (or waypoints) in the game map (not the small map) and move MapPlayer to a position in the map depending on which waypoint the player touches (though this process may be quite annoying to do)
