hello Will and welcome to the forum.

So you want to make a map with peace time borders on in the map editor.

I see 2 ways of doing this.

One is by firing up the random map and then exit and load up the autosaved RNO xxx xxx into the editor and change the map to your likings.

The other way is indeed by using that F5 button, but then it needs to be fixed. I do remember succeeding in getting it to work a year ago when i was trying out things on C I, but to tell you the truth, I can't remember how I did it, if I changed something or if I pressed a hotkey combination to get it to work. I will have a look in my back ups to see if i can find it back.

In any case, you posted this question in the 'modding' section and not the mapping section, so, what you gonna wanna do, is look for the graphic file that holds the peace time border stone ( .gp) and then make sure it shows up properly in the .rsr section file of the F5 menu. (I believe its holes.rsr or that other weird.rsr file)

The problem is, if you mod it, the map will be for single play only AND you cannot distribute the map to other players unless you also distribute a mod.gs1 or patch.gs1 file.

Hope that somewhat helps.

Don't hesitate to ask for more information.

Do you know how to erase hills of a RNO map to make it completly plain?

Dont worry bout posting in the wrong section. It just wasn't clear to me if you wanted to mod or map.

In any case, I just looked for a back up of how i fixed it, but can't seem to find it, but since its just for mapping, it's useless.

What i forgot to say is, try by creating a sample.

For example, load up one of the RNO xxx xxx which has peace time borders on it.

Then select a straight line of peace time borders by dragging a box over it and press control + C, a new window will pop up, give it a logic name so you can find it back.
Then press CTRL+ V to access the list with saved user samples and look for your sample and place it on the map.
Probably you will want to create a sample with a horizontal line of peace time borders and a vertical one at least and maybe a few for diagonal placing.

See if that works out for you.

About your other question to erase hills of a RNO map, dont know, I guess by using the relief editor? Or placing a flat sample over the hills.

I think ill do something wrong but i dont know what. The map is not finished.

If its an RNO that for example only had 2 players on creating the map, then you will only be able to play so with 2 players.

If its a new map and an AI doesn't kick off at start, try adding a few soldiers to that nation and see if its better. Make sure you have set starting resources for the third player aswell in map options.

If it still fails, then I'll have a look at your map;

Do you have a RNO with 3 players and this kind of distribution? (4 squares)

Myeah, also pay attention to the nation you select and color when generating a map. This is the disadvantage of using RNO maps.

I suppose you could script it so that the nation and color changes if it really bothers you.

I could, but I have enough things to do myself. This is something you can do yourself.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind answering your questions & explaining how to do it, but doing it for you, nah, thanks.
