It would be more like this:

(O = outdoor, I = indoor, X = empty screen)

(area 1)

O O
X O

(area 2)

X X
I X

I think Desplesda described it to me like this, anyway. Basically, the different free-scrolling areas would be in completely different 'areas' of the map, so that you'd select 'area 1' to edit area 1, and 'area 2' to edit area 2, instead of viewing all of the map screens at once like in WinDinkedit. It would almost be like multiple map files, but not really.

But... this would be a pain for lots of indoor screens, because you'd have to have a new 'area' for each. You guys should have the 'area' or similar abstract allow you to specify free-scrolling or screen-based. This would allow easy importation of earlier D-Mods, where each would just be a 32x24 screen-based area.
