You cannot change radar's textures.
All you can do is spawn there a (custom/not) marker with your wanted color.

You can create a map of VC as a sprite that would show up on pressing 'M'.
Create more sprites with different colors and set their Alpha lower(for semi transparency)

On pressing M, Show the sprites to the player. You'll need to carefully place the color sprite with relative positioning to make it work.

Nope. Creating 1000 timers that do very little tasks won't lag your server but running 1 timer every 20 minutes which runs a sqlite query will lag your server, Timers aren't bad unless they are used badly.

Hmm, I was thinking that more timers will cause our server lag, anyways Thanks
oh no
