OK... it's stupid question time.

How do you go about navigating in multiplayer (on Expert)?

There's the map in the bottom right corner of the screen, but it seems to be massively zoomed in on a part of the theatre that's nowhere near where I'm flying. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to focus the map on a different part of the theatre. I can use 'M' to toggle a slightly bigger version of the map, but that's about it.

Am I missing something?

I personally just use the compass and landmarks. I'm not sure about the focusing-on-a-wrong-part-of-the-map issue, that may just be a bug.

You can press the letter "O" to bring up a full sized version of the map which can be moved about and zoomed in,it really helps with getting around.
