Learner Report post Posted December 24, 2003 Could you release the source to the Map editor so that we could fix bugs and add improvements into that as well? A friend of mine has been using it and one of the first suggestions he had was he'd like to see when you click one of the icons (such as the ground tile mode) that it automatically open the selection window. We can add it to the same CVS that we are using for the elc development. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sander Report post Posted December 27, 2003 I know a good improvement: when you select an object, dont recenter it around the mouse cursor. Example: Say that I am placing waterbanks on the map. I rotate the camera a bit and I see that it doesn't align perfectly. It just needs to be 2 pixels to the left so I hit select, I click on the waterbank and *poof* it's on my mousecursor, a long long way from where it was... So I reposition it, check it, see it still off, click it again and yet again *poof* it moves haflway doen the screen to my cursor... Grrrr..... [cut here. You can guess the rest] Please make it so that when I select an object, it doesn't get centered on the mouse. I want to select it, move it a bit and drop it again. Oh, and please correct that irrirating non-working click after you used a windows panel..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geelef Report post Posted December 27, 2003 I've got a nice one: When you've selected a 3D model to place, you place it, then it gets deselected (so you gotta load it all over again to place the same object twice). That's pretty annoying if you're doing river banks/forests/jungles. Just let the object you loaded stay loaded after you place it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
