This is great! Two things I noticed immediately:
the settings window overlaps with the minimap.
I think it'd be neat if you could zoom? The reason I'd use this over a tiling window manager is to fit more terminals on a screen at once. I think if there was a capability like the Strategic Zoom in Supreme Commander (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hJY7exr9KU) it would be much easier to manage many terminals at once, and take advantage of the infinite canvas.
Thanks for letting me know about the settings/minimap overlap, I’ll fix that. And yes, zoom is on the list! I’ll implement it tomorrow. Just wanted to get the core working first without hogging the CPU.
Zoom support just landed: https://github.com/peters/horizon/pull/27
SupCom Zoom was the single greatest UX improvement to strategy games, and it's sad that nothing outside of the TA family picked it up. BAR and TA Escalation of course have it, and are among my favorites across the entire genre.
