Select a rectangular range to move part of maps

[wiidesire-2]

Hello,

I am sorry when this idea is already suggested, but I couldnt find it.

My friend visited me and I explained him Trackmania. When we were at the editor, he wanted to create a map.

After he finished his map he drove it and he crashed against a wall ( it was too deep) and he wanted to change the height. He asked me how he can mark/select a whole part of the map and I said, thats not possible.

So my suggestion


you can select a rectangular range by using your mouse while holding down the CTRL key ( for example )to draw a rectangle around the range. Then you can change the height or move it. I think thats a very important editor function.

I am interested about your opinion


Regards

Max

Jseb just included light information in map files in order to guarantee each player to have it.
Stephen, Massimo and Bertrand are working on a new road, wall ride, ramps and tunnels at the moment.

Chevron's idea is good, but he's wrong about 1 thing (and this thing is related to what tcq and sebik said): there should be a something, on which we could base on, I mean, there should be something like a background, but different and poor.

Btw, the "high" you were talking about on-topic is called "height".

I think TM editor is really good and easy to use but... this is the only lack i noticed more then once so far.

Would be a great improvement. Sometimes is annoying when (as your friend) you build a whole part of track and then you have to rebuilt all over cause there is no more space or something.
