Modifying minimap's buildings size?

Hello! After searching on past forums, the only topic i found was this one: Minimap Icon Modification

Apparently there is no direct way of scaling down the size of buildings on the minimap, which is very problematic for huge maps. On that topic they tried to use a scaled down gold mine icon for the buildings but I assume that is not team colored which is an issue. I wonder if after all these years someone found an optimal solution for this?.

Another suboptimal solution I found is changing my buildings to units, but that is very bad for the triggers i'm currently using and it would be better if buildings have a bigger size than units.

Any suggestion that is better than both of these solutions I'd highly appretiate.
It's weird that the minimap on the editor looks so well scaled but it gets so ugly in game.
My project is 240x480.
