Perhaps a note in the game guide for those that dont realise if it does not say already.


I've made a note to add that to the GG. Now all we have to do is get people to READ IT . Long experience has taught me that saying ....."thought it was obvious " is a guarantee that it will not be obvious to everybody.

Also, the celebration for fixing the map was short lived. I discovered this morning that although the grey map edges appeared to be fixed late last night I discovered this morning that ANY editing on the map causes them to disappear again so avoid any edge hex that looks like an edge hex or doesn't look like a normal edge hex. I've got a couple of other tricks I can try to fix this but it's a DOS version 3 map made 14 releases ago and it's great news it works at all.
