Map: Problem with Editor

[Mobhack]

This is why it is advisable always to regularly save your map editing work (or scenario editing for that matter) just like any other computer related business like working on a Word document or programme. Since then you have a known good backup to return to if it all goes pear-shaped on you!.

The Extended map editor for CD owners as I recall has an undo function - and also it auto-saves on a timed basis as well IIRC. (Been some time since I worked with it, maps are not my thing)

I tried reducing the map size and then re-enlarging but that didn't work. Any ideas?

When you reduced it you did save it & then open that save & reset the map size.

Bridges run till they find an end so the way to do it is put a one hex island just past where you want it to end & then change the island back to a water hex.

Rosollia, thanks for the link to the editor. I downloaded it for future use.

Andy, yeah not having a dedicated backup was a big mistake. I won't do THAT again.

John, yes I saved it, reopened that save & reset the map size. Thanks for the tip on the bridges.

Thanks for the help and suggestions.

I just ended up starting over from scratch. I built a generic open water base map to use in the future and saved that first. I was hoping to convert all of the map edges to open water, but the build beach option only clears the left and right edges. That should be good enough.
