Modules for ABattlemap

@The:

Func’s total map looks pretty good. I have an error to report on it though. There are two (2) Nova Scotia’s. The little island off Quebec’s coast is actually Newfoundland. I don’t know if someone can fix this, but I know those Newfies go pretty nuts when they get dissed.  :-D

Actually, New Brunswick/Nova Scotia is New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, AND Newfoundland. Newfoundland/Labrador is just Labrador. The 2 Nova’s are the same territory

Well that’s still geographically wrong how it’s depicted. Newfoundland should NOT be attached to NB and NS. It should be just those two as one territory attached to the US. The little island should be Newfoundland because that province IS an island! Newfoundland and Labrador are part of the same province, just separated by water.  :-D

When you move your cursor over the island, at the top it says Nova Scotia. I still think it should be renamed Newfoundland. That’s just my Canadian beef. How other beef is how they left out Saskatchewan and used Alberta instead  :lol: :-P but we won’t go there.

Actually, the territory is called Alberta/Saskatchewan/Manitoba

Hi, got a problem with ABattlemap.  It doesn’t seem to save any maps.  When I click on a map to download, it says that it is saved to the ABattlemap folder in Program Files, yet when I go to ABattlemap program and try to open it, I can’t find the file anywhere.

Any help??? :?

You may have to change your “browse” window to “downloads” instead of perhaps “desktop”

Any idea when Stoney’s version of Global 40 will be done???  He’s probably near completion right???

Hmm, the only thing he can add to func’s map is abbreviations and ipc values

[The Dessert Fox]

Also add the VCs

The ipc values are already listed if you put the cursor over the territory and most of us made our own abbreviations. BTW, anyone know why shan state is abbreviated SHM instead of SHN?

No doubt it is a typo.  Just change it with the sektor editor.  Heck, with that editor you could change a lot of names, like “Japan” to “Death Star”  :-)

LOL. Well it’s led to people calling it “Sham State.”

How do I use the SektorEditor?

[gamerman01]

@calvinhobbesliker:

It’s actually very easy.

File -> Sektor editor

Then you click on a territory or zone, and it automatically brings up the stats and name.  You just change it, then save.  It’s great.

[calvinhobbesliker]

It doesn’t automatically change when i push save and also doesn’t when I refresh it.

[calvinhobbesliker]

Also, how to I use it to add the airbase to philippines?

Alright here, hold my hand now.

After making your change, I click “Save”, then “Save Sektorinfo” (button on left), then “Save” again.  Might be an extra click somewhere, but it works.

[calvinhobbesliker]

Okay, when I now move the cursor over Shan State, it has the correct name and abbreviation, but the abbreviation on the map itself is wrong. i suppose it’s impossible to change the map itself?
