Need help with custom map and Final Alert 2

[aWarNoob1]

How do I change the theater of a map? I imported and added water to an official game map that was on desert theater. Problem is that I can't make naval shipyards!!

I figured out how to do this. For those who might be interested, you need to go to edit then click on map. Keep a record of the width and height. Go back to edit and click on copy whole map. Now make a new map and set the width and height the same and set theater to whatever you please. Once map is generated go to edit and click paste centered. Ore posts, trees, or any buildings will not transfer over.

 

I'll probably make a desert version of heck freezes over sometime this week.

Yeah, way to complicate things, lol. Those maps are just text files. Open in Notepad, change Theater= line, done
