And there are several vids about the Editor, type "Battle Academy 2 editor" into the youtube search box and see what comes up.

Actually the Editor is not as difficult as I first thought, I've been learning by trial and error by clicking buttons and have now got a smug smile on my face bigger than a wave on a slop bucket..:)
Don't forget to hit key F1 when you're in the editor to bring up a list of editor hotkeys and it's plain sailing from there, but if you get stuck anytime just ask for advice in this thread or wherever..:)

Is there some proper manual for the editor by now?
I don't even know how to remove placed units..

Thanks

There are details in the BA1 manual. http://gamewiki.slitherine.com/doku.php

IIRC removing units is done by holding down the DELETE key and left clicking on an existing unit. It removes loaded units first.

Cheers

Thanks for the link, but the only thing I was able to find after some clicking through was this
chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/http://www.slithdata.net/files/bbc_ba/m ... _Guide.pdf

which is just two pages and only talks about the terrain, and no other features of the editor. Is that the one you wanted to send?

And thanks for the tip with delete.
