Save Map Button!

from GalCiv2 Forums
We need a faster, easier way of creating custom maps:

I'm aware of the "GC2 Builder" map editor utility. But creating a map from scratch with it is too cumbersome and time consuming -- especially if you are creating a large map.

SOLUTION:

Add a "Save Map" button to the game.

If you add a "Save Map" button to GC2, then we could create maps initially within GC2, save them, and then edit those map files with the map editor utility. That would be much, much faster.

What do you at StarDock think about adding this feature?

How about Alt +S, to save the game map to map file.

A short cut key sequence to save the map would be the easy way to implement the function rather than creating a an interface button.

With a save map function, then we could create maps initially within GC2, save them, and then edit those map files with the map editor utility. That would be much, much faster than creating a "Large" or "Gigantic" map from scratch with the utility, star by star by star, by planet, by planet -- one at a time -- would be too cumbersome.

I hear the masses chearing right now.

Morale just went way up!!!!
