Re: MapEditing Faq anuwhere?
Baseline questions - I have a map, saved a .tga file.
When I open it in the map editor I get a row of extremely closely spaced banners across the bottom of the screen.
How do I specify provinces, how do I add and/or delete them? Even a province with no neighbors is still part of the game.
The .map file doesn't seem to include any coordinates whatsoever - just province names and numbers. So the map editor is somehow interpolating the locations of provinces from the map I supply it as a background?
Any advice on how to get that algorithm to behave well, if that is indeed the case? Should the borders be some particular color? I notice that they are always either dark red or dark blue in the maps that came with the game.
Why on earth didn't they just let you plant the flags wherever you want by clicking on them and dragging them around?
