[General] Is it better to periodically 'migrate' to a totally new map file?

[qemorak]

Hi,

just wanted to know whether it's recommended to periodically 'migrate' to a totally new map file, by using some kind of transfer methods like 'saving as a folder'.

As we all know, when making maps we always make and delete new abilities, new units, import and delete models, skins, etc.
Maybe doing these things within a one map file for too long can cause some problems? Such as messed up paths or so?

Tried Googling about this issue but couldn't find any directly related threads, just a comment that recommends doing this 'migration' ASAP; [LINK]

Thanks in advance.

That sounds unnecessary, just make backups of your map and always have a fallback plan if something breaks.

Hey Thanks for the reply! It's enough with having plenty of backups, happy to hear.
