Hey,

I just loaded up the remake map editor and I was trying to add more stone to an existing stone locations on one of the maps, but I couldn't figure it out. How do you just increase the number of stone on a map, or how do you add more fish and such to a pond? Can you just edit the number or what?

Thanks for any info you can provide,

The KaM Remake editor is not complete yet, it's difficult to edit the terrain because you need to do it tile by tile. We will be adding terrain brushes like in Krom's editor in the next release

If you just want to add more stones to an existing hill, you can load the map in the KaM Remake editor, go to Terrain -> Tiles then scroll across to the stone tiles. The most solid stone tile (most grey/least broken) is the richest deposit, so if you select it and replace all of the tiles in the hill with that tile it will have more stone that can be mined. You could also download Krom's kam map editor (google it) and use the terrain brushes to make the hill larger.

As for fish, you need to place more of the little fish that swim around. Find the "units" panel in the editor, select fish under the animals and place more of them in the water body.

So I added some stone in the map, but I have the problem where the masons wont mine it. I thought maybe there needs to be one of the transition tiles so the rock just doesn't end. However it seems that the stone masons only like the corners of the rock mountain? Any suggestions would be more than welcome.

I would assume you have placed Gold mountains instead of Stone mountains tiles. Providing a screenshot would help us to help you better

Also remember that stonemasons will only mine from the bottom of the hill (the mining animation only exists for facing north), so if you build them above the hill they won't mine it.

Thanks for the info about stone masons only going up, that was the problem. I made my stone on the bottom of the map so they couldn't get to where they needed to be.
