Map Scaling?

Post by Slamoid »

Ok, this is a 2 parter:

Map Editing Part- Can somone compile a version of the Map Maker that will resize maps w/o changing their actual size? that'd really help. (I can't compile the source for some reason :? )

Game Playing Part- A way to scale a map just before you start playing on it would be most AWESOME. Consider:The same map, with 2 people would be like 2kx2k pixels, while with 6 people playing would be so big, it would be like having 10kx10k big, just by scaling the terrain locations. Size also manually overridable for 1v1 on 'Core Prime' sized maps.

What does everyone think? :-)

It would have to get smaller otherwise it would be retarded and blotchy looking. And it sounds like it would mess up gameplay alot, resizing would change metal sizes and densities, aswell as features like hills and lakes.
