Hello, I am new to this site. I have a question about custom map making.

A while back, I was trying to make my own original map for the game by cutting and pasting objects and labels from a .m file to the new map file. I was trying to make the objects permanent on the map.

Unfortunately, for some odd reason, the objects seem to multiply on top of one another. For example, I had a skyscraper that suddenly had two more identical skyscrapers on top of it, even though I know I had only placed one! What makes these objects multiply like that, and how can the problem be overcome?

I'd appreciate any help -

Thank you.

You have to change the obj flags and alias to make them permenant to the map...

Example...

obj
type STRIP2.OT
pos 1085299 0 460122
angle -90 0 0
nationality3 11
flags $03
speed 0
alias -107
name
Pyong Taek

.

change it to this...

obj
type STRIP2.OT
pos 1085299 0 460122
angle -90 0 0
nationality3 11
flags $4003
speed 0
alias -10107
name
Pyong Taek

.


The flags have to be a 4 digit extension...

The alias has to be in the 10,000 range...
