Relocating Parts of a Map

  1. Let's say I start working on a map only to find that it isn't big enough, so I increase the size, leaving what I've already done in the top left corner. If I want that area of the map to be the bottom right corner of the map instead, is there any way to cut and paste it or otherwise relocate it? Or will I have to erase what I've done and manually recreate it where I need it to be?
  2. I have yet to find a way to do this myself, but if you find a way to do this, I want to know too!
  3. With "Control & T" you can place the map the way you want, with that option you can move them number of tiles down, left, right or up. Needs maybe 2 or 3 steps. ;)  

    An other option is to mark the part of the map you want to replace with the right mouse button hold down and then place it with the left mouse button. ;)
    Hope I whriten it clear enough. :D (\s/)
  4. The left mouse button thing doesn't seem to work for me, but that Control + T method works very well. Thank you!
  5. Don't hold down right mouse after copying - think of right mouse as a selection to 'copy' and left mouse as a 'paste'.
  6. You can also hold down the shift key while selecting the area to move with the right mouse button. Then hold down the shift key and click to paste it where you want. Then erase the remaining tiles in the original area (while still holding shift so it doesn't mess up your autotiles).


    Now I must try Control+T - that's a new one for me.
