The host picks Racer or Live Cam from the setup screen, so the two roles
cannot share one placement setting - switching would mean editing
environ.ini every time, which is not a thing to ask of anyone. L4MAPPOS
places the camera's map and L4MAPSCALE sizes it, taking the same values as
L4RADARPOS and L4RADARSCALE and defaulting to the bottom-left corner. A
pod keeps its own pair and its dead-centre default, which is where the
cabinet had it. Each role remembers its own; one file serves both.
The scale is split for the same reason as the position: a host who wanted
a bigger map while camming would otherwise have hit exactly the same
problem the next time out.
The log now names which variable it read - "map on the bottom left
(L4MAPPOS)" - because a setting that silently loses to another one is how
this went unnoticed in the first place. Both new keys are in the shipped
environ.ini template, so they are discoverable without reading the source.
Nothing to edit on an existing install: a file with L4RADARPOS set and no
L4MAPPOS gives the pod its centre and the camera its corner.
