Default Re: Idiot\'s Guide to Making Custom Maps?

The white dots are the important thing. The dots should only be one pixel big. Thats the tiniest size possible. One touch of the thinnest pencil.

If you made the dots using the dot tool (a filled-in circle) then that would cause the problems you are talking about. When you click on the province, its jumping to a different pixel than the one you clicked on before.

When I actually WANTED the dots to be apparent, I used a single white dot and surrounded it with light yellow ones. That way it seemed like a bigger dot but still only had one of the total white (255,255,255) color for the game to target on
