This is a project I started a week back, though I did most of the code today.
The code is a complete mess and is not fully MUI yet, (the periodic text is not, rest should be).
I will work more on the code, I don't want to highlight it, however this has not been done before as far as I know.
(gif in 16fps, the text appear smoother in the actual map, the gif is also slightly out of date)

The text is created by using # in the string.
