Editor Problem ?

Post by Dita0 »

Now, I`m sure I`m doiung something really daft here.

I go into the editor, create a new map 24 x 24. I then get the grey map area, I then proceed to "paint" the map with grass tiles..and nothing. No grass on my map just gray squares. Cornfield gives a different shade of gray.

Any suggestions?

They are just fogged because there are no units to see them. It's useful to allow you to see where deployments can happen to, but it does seem to be confusing some people.

Just looking at it. For now, doing a save then load will reset the visibility. I'll add a toggle to the todo list, as it would be handy to be able to choose whether to see the whole map, or the areas visible to your troop setup.

Cheers

Hmm, after getting lots of shades of gray, I decided to save the file. Opening the file back up I then get the result.

Looks like I have to resize the map, then save, then reload the newly sized map for working on it. As I said, looks like I was doing something in the wrong sequence.

Oops, just seen your reply. Thanks. Looks like were typing at the same time! Appears that I just came to the same conclusion for the workaround for now.

A toggle would be useful.

Thanks for reply.
