If you start any new squares, it will make the map file HUGE very quickly. There is also no way to delete map squares.

This is a very big weakness of FreeDinkEdit and a source of frustration. What I have had to do is to use existing maps from other dmods and alter the screens one at a time.


That sounds weird. Are you saying that if you create new map screens in Freedinkedit, the map file gets a lot bigger than if you edit an existing map that has a similar number of screens?

I had a bug like that a long time ago (with Sky Number 13, the map.dat was literally hundreds of megabytes), but I haven't experienced anything like that since.
