Flashing nodes on minimap

As the title says, I believe I saw this functionality from Carbonite. I personally found it handy that the minimap gold dots would flash to white (or some similarly eye catching color). Obviously, this would be best implemented as a toggle of some sort.

I'm honestly not sure what sort of coding is necessary to do this (whether it needs a database of potential nodes to do this, or if it just alters the graphic on the minimap) but it would be neat to have this without needing Carbonite.

So far I have resisted the temptation to add gathering functionality to nUI as it's not really a UI function so much as a convenience behavior. That may change in the future though.

I suppose I'll have to do that then. Thanks for the tip Equelibrium. And if there's another mod that can integrate said gathering functions into nUI, I'd say stick to your guns. Keep up the good work Mr. Piel.
