importing terrain

[TheAncient]

is it possible to import sections of terrain? like you got a section you really like, and want it in another one of your maps? is this possible? if so can you explain?

Yes, but it needs some back and forth pacing. Also, if custom doodads are involved you need to have them in your map.

Just go to the terrain pallette, make sure to have any tools un-selected, drag the cursor over the area you want to copy (It should form a green square) press CNTRL+C then open up the other map and paste it. You need to have the tiles of the terrain you copied, otherwise it'll just be dirt.

And then do the same thing with doodads, except do it with the doodad pallette, drag and select, copy, paste.

yea the biggest problem will be placing the doodads correctly and getting it to match up with the terrain as it does in the original

I suggest put 4 doodads at the four corners of the section that are standing in the center of 4 equally-placed tiles, so you can match them up correctly.
