When you reach the end of a map, the end of the map is black and dens. Is it possible to change the black icon to an more appropirate icon?

I think about the only practical thing you can do is force the "client-eye" to stop tracking your character when he nears the edge of a map, so that you never see the black map-edge. Others here can give you details on the specific snippet of coding to use for that.

I believe you can also put objects on client.screen with a layer under the turf layer. That way they normally don't show up unless you're looking at the normal black area of the map.
Another thing that can be done is good map design. Block the players from even being able to get close to the map edge/see the map edge.

I believe 338 added "EDGE_PERSPECTIVE" to client.perspective's valid values, take a look at it in the reference.
