Quirkitized Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) Hi guys, I was wondering if you think maybe sometime in the future it would be possible to make a "Highlight/Selection Box" a area on the map, and everything "within" that box, gets highlighted, and you can save it as a template? Not sure how I can explain it, but think of using photoshop or something similar where you can use a "Rectangular Marquee Tool", you just hold down your left mouse button, drag the box to the area you want to consume, and let off the mouse and your box is complete....you can then save everything in that box as a template. This would be extremely helpful I think when creating FARPs or Enemy base camps, or anything in general. I could see this saving mass amounts of time. The current default template is a great addition to the old lockon style editor. Right now we are just limited to units and not static objects. I think it would be great if you could just select an "area" with a "box" and everything in that "box" you could save as a template. Just imagine you get a FARP all setup with vehicles, static objects, barracks, command post, a nice little "base camp" you could save it and use it over and over. Is there anything planned for that is maybe too hard to add? something so small but I think would be a really awesome touch to the editor. Edited February 16, 2009 by Quirkitized
Quirkitized Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 I might as well ask if there is going to be a "Grid" option as well....would be nice to have a grid over the editor, easier to align units and placement... Sorry for the questions in a new thread but I couldnt find anything from searches, no idea what to search for to try and see if somebody asked these questions.

Quirkitized Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 Can you link me the posts then? I couldn't find anything in searches about a grid in mission editor or a select all box to convert to template. Greatly appreciated, very curious, thanks.
