Ok, another question, is there a way to make the "height" tool a square? It seems so hard to make a square, or to make anything level again once I make it uneven. I have seen the water in Tobruk, its so square and even, yet my maps are so broken up and hilly. I know about shift and what not but making square areas...

Also, how do I blend terrain? I somehow did it on my first map, but am unsure just how I did it.

Also, in F2 mode, there are all those colored lines? How do I move them? Is that what I use inorder to make my maps bigger or smaller?
I dont think there's a way to make it into a square but the way they got it so fine and squarey is that they shrunk the brush to its lowest possible size then used that to fine tune the edges

To move the coloured lines simply click on them and drag them back or forth, and then press set to finish the new placement.

What part of the lines do I grab? I for the life of me can never move them, just like blending terrain, I somehow got them to move ONE time on one of my maps, but I have no idea how I did it and have never since replicated it.

Is there a button I have to first hit to unlock them?

scroll over the lines until the cursor turns green, this indicates that you can move it about, you may have to try all of the lines first but usually the moveable one is the one in the middle, try and click onto it and drag it.

It takes some time and practice, i had the same problem before

I have had it turn green, I tried once again the other night, nothing. Does it only move outward, away from the map edge? It wont get any smaller then the dimensions of the map?

It should be able to move inwards as well as outwards, are you keeping the mouse clicked down when you drag it?

when the pointer turns green click and hold the mouse down and drag it to the desired place, when you let go it shouldnt move anymore. im not quite sure what else you could do if this doesnt work,

The light blue line defines the camera clipping and where you can position it
The Yellow line indicates the playable area where units can stay in
and the purple line i think is where the fog begins.

Samedi, do you happen to know why in my mod the Mantlets on tanks do not function as any sort of armor? When im shooting tanks, the mantlet offers no protection, which file am I missing that would make them work correctly? Ive got all the tank_inc files....
