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

1. How does the map editor detect borders?

It doesn't. The little white dots are what it detects. If you connect two white dots in the editor, then they theoretically border each other (though you could make teleporting provinces). Borders are just drawn on for appearance.

2. Is it going to be a problem if I make snowy maps, because there can't be any other 255, 255, 255 pixels.

Just make your snow 245, 245, 245. It would still be white but shouldn't be identified as a province.


Ignore my first paragraph.
