@Nomander OMG I can't believe I missed that! Welp that's a bit embarrassing... THANK YOU!!!

@Treos I'll give that a try for now. Will wait for an actual solution but thanks for the idea!

I start a game and there is no minimap or even the little arrow icon to pull it up... Played FAF for years without this issue. FYI, I got a new PC and just reinstalled FAF and SupCom Forged-Alliance.
