Intro map - Is it possible to rotate 180o?

Post by GottaLove88s »

The intro map that accompanies the force allocation stage

Is there a way to rotate it 180 degrees? So I can show the players forces at the bottom, and the objective at the top.

Thanks Pip. Just to be 100% sure on this, if I want my intro overview map to orient a particular way, the only way to do this is to start to draw a map, then test if it's correctly oriented in an dummy game, and if not, redraw the map in the Editor until it works...? There's no way to reorient the intro overview map after it's been laid down in the Editor? Sorry for being a bit dumb :oops:

Not sure what you mean. The initial map (in the force selection screen) is just a render of the map from a distance.

Sorry (and thanks) Pip, Am not explaining myself very clearly.

Let me try again... The intro map below, shows Kustrin town in the top right, and the Road to Berlin in the bottom left... But the Soviet attackers must approach from Kustrin towards the Road to Berlin, moving from top right to bottom left, as the map is currently oriented.

I'd like to re-orient this intro map, to show Kustrin in the bottom left, and the Road to Berlin in the top right, to show a natural flow of action. Is the only way to do this, to delete the map and redraw it from fresh, but with everything rotated 180o?

(Yes, I know I'm being OCD lol :oops: )

Sorry but yes. Hmmm - unless you try changing the compass orientation. That might change the camera setting and flip the map - but I am only hoping! :)
