The functions included within this include file will give mod builders the ability to add or delete map pins on individual player mini-maps. It will also allow a player/builder to store player map pins via Bioware DB or on an inventory item. This is useful for server vault PCs when the PW/Multiplayer server does not reset from a saved game. Map pin data is usually lost after a server reset, but not with the PersistentMapPin() function. Please read the comments within the include file.
This file was inspired by Primogenitor who had the original Idea and a few functions posted in the Endless List of Homebrew Functions Sticky.

First you need some way that the player can choose to save their map pins. This could be threw conversation, A usable item in their inventory, or what ever. You could also save it for them by some other means if you like. That is what you would use the PersistentMapPins() function for.
If you want to add map pins to a map, for example the PC finds a treasure map, they go to the area of the map, but find nothing. So the players take the map to get it "read". You would be able to then set a map pin so next time that PC enters the area, the tresure location is marked on the Mini-map.
Email me with specifics on what you would like to do [email protected] and I'll see what I can do.
