World Wrap on Custom Maps?

Does anyone know how to get world wrap to work properly? Ive made 'regions' at the north (19) and south (20) of my map, the rest of the ocean is treated as another region (21). When I play my map though, the world edges are present at both the right and left edges of the map? Interestingly there doesn't seem to be typical 'world edge' at the very south of the map but there is one at the top, and the left and right sides of the map. I feel like ive done something wrong. Do you need two regions for the oceon? one for the left and one for the right side of the map? that's the only thing I can think of?



Map size is 60x60

Could you update your custom map so that our team can take a look at it and see what's happening? smiley: smile

Ive looked and the southern 'map edge' doesn't appear on any random map either (atleast on the zoomed out map) so that probably intended. The world wrap I cant get my head round though, dunno why I can get it to work?

So ive looked and tried some pot-shot solutions, but to no avail. Then it occurred to me, that in the game set scenarios world wrap is a toggled setting. So I tried to toggle it on, for my custom map by going into advanced settings, once i'd chosen my custom map. However there are no options like usual once you click on advanced settings. Except for the map size (which is limited to tiny or small) yet I can have 8 players on my custom map. smiley: confused

Hello drewwest,



First of all, if your map could not cycle you should have a warning about it.

Generally it is due to the number of hexagons not being even but if you sticked to 60x60 it must be okay.



Once your mod is launched and selected in the generation presets part, could you confirm yopu went to the advanced world settings and choose the World Wrap otpion with "Wrap"?



We tried to have a look at your files but it seems a 404 error is happening.

Are you sure they were uploaded correctly?



Thanks,

Hello



I'm just doing to go through my processes in making a map, just to make sure nothing is amiss.



1. I opened TILED and loaded the tileset provided (after unzipping it to my desktop)

2. I created a 60x60 map following the instructions and saved it by overwriting the MapTutorial .tmx file provided by Lt. Miles

3. I placed the mod in the Community folder

4. I can activate it through the mod menu, and can select it as an available scenario.



http://www.multimondes.net/Amplitude/EndlessLegend/MapCreationTutorial/EL_Tmx_WorldGeneratorScenario.png



5.This is a screenshot from Lt.Miles guide, his modded map (or whoevers hes using as an example) also has limited Advanced settings. This is the same for me, and my custom map. It is therefore impossible for me to manually toggle on the world wrap

7. The map can be loaded from my end, it just has map undefined boundaries at all four corners of the map.



Ive uploaded the tmx file and the xml file from my mod folder?

Having a closer look at Lt.Miles map and the Scenario[Westeros].xml I saw that most of the option definitions have been erased in order to set up some limits to the user input for map generation.



I suspect that if you don't have the wrap options it is because you lack the following lines in your xml:





Advanced



false





true









For the other options you might want to add just have a look at the official generation presets we made for the game smiley: smile



I hope it helps.

Ive tried that and it still hasnt solved my problem. I dunno whats going wrong, ruins and watch towers dont appear, and I cant get this world wrap to work. I lack experience when it comes to modding files. Nevermind, thanks for you help anyway Pikou

In last resort you can also send me your files and I will try to have a look at it.

At least for the wrap issue it should be quick to determine the problem.

Pikou!!! good news I copy and pasted that code, into the XML located in Endless Legend/Community/Test Map/Public/Scenarios



...and it worked!!! world wrap is finally working smiley: biggrin



Now I just have to fixed this watchtower problem lol. Any idea what could be preventing the watchtower foundations from spawning? could I be missing a line of code again somewhere else?



I dunno whether its purely coincidence that ruins and watch towers are both next to each other in the PointofInterest tab, and both seem to not appear on the map
