groundpounder Posted September 6, 2000 Share Posted September 6, 2000 Does anyone know how to rotate a CM map. I got part way through constructing a new scenario when I realized I had the wrong map orientation. I know, I know it was PPPP but if anyone knows how to rotate a map please post the solution.

Pak40 Posted September 6, 2000 Share Posted September 6, 2000 You can't rotate a map but you can do what I did on one of mine: use the landmark feature to label each edge of the map North, South, East, West. It's only a visual thing for the player and has no effect on the game setup. also you cannot copy a map from an operation to a battle or the other way around.

DOH! I would really appreciate more controls on manipulating maps. Most of all I'd like the possibility to save maps as maps, not as battles or operations. Then I would like the possibility to load a big operation map and crop it into a part of it and make a smaller battle out of it. And as has been mentioned, it would rock to be able to load custom maps into QB's. But I'll stop pestering and go back to make that operation of mine...
