Oh, well! Take a lesson, lads. Save carefully!

WB - If you are in the Map Editor it saves your work automatically at set intervals as well. It might be doing it quite often too because my screen seems to always be flashing that message in the lower left corner!

Yep, it's autosaved in the new map editor in slot 999. I know it's a bit awkward but it's never likely to be inadvertently used for any other reason back there either. It's intended as an emergency back up. You won't need it very often but it's there when you do.

Just remember the map editor is a MAP editor not a sceanrio editor. Any adjustments to terrain required after troops have started to be placed can only be made with the regular game editor

The following change has been added to the patch as detailed in the " What Changes in the CD Version " thread on the main page


47) A safety feature has been added to the scenario editor. The sceanrio editor will now call up the scenario save game list screen on exit from the scenario editor so the user can save off his work in the event "EXIT" was pressed by mistake.

Dankie, Double deuce

I didn't know that. I'm going to check and see if that Malaya map is still there.

As long as that was the last map you worked on in the map editor I would think it would be there.
