You could calculate their position relative to the center of your map (in-game). You could then use these coordinates and convert them to the coordinates needed for your map.

I very much doubt this is a good solution, but it could work.

I found this reply in a similar thread, this seems like a better solution:

@lskid

Find the stud points in the world where you map ends, and get the percentage of the player across that distance. This way you have relative position in the world that you can put as the scale position of the player marker.
