Map editor

[Q]

I am really impressed by the map editor. The possibilities seem almost endless to me and it will let us create very different games. And I just love the SE III layout!
Excellent work MM and thank you very much!

It's still not working. After I name the first planet, I get a range check error when I try on the next. I first tried moding an existing system, then I created a whole new one, but I still got the error message. It's not a really big problem, but it indicates that there could be other problems with the editor.

Ok, let me run a few tests.

Just one small question: Has anybody found a possibility to check which system names have already been used in a map?
If you add a system when already 200 are present, it's quite difficult to control which system names already exists. You can apparently choose the same name for two systems without an error message.

I might have found the problem:
The roman numbers I, II, III etc. seem to be necessary. If I rename a planet just "Earth" I get the same error Messages as you but if I name it "Earth III" everything is fine.

Your right Q. I just tried it and it worked ok. THanks.
