Weekly Feedback: Map Editor

[xGraves]

I find, occasionally, that walls get stuck beneath one another. It's frustrating to find, days later, a few walls that had been stacked, occupying the same spot.

 

[GroteKoning]

I had the same issue, post made under 'Bugs'. Support replied known issue, attending to it.

 

[Eddie F1]

650% with 6 buildings still to do.

 

[Tower]

Multiple bases, please Would be great to have 2-3 bases you can easily switch between. E.g.from a heavily defended TC base to a sacrifice TC base

 

[Redgar]

Yea I've been at 680%, but those snipers...

 

[Kaizen]

I would realy appreciate if you add some other kinds of maps, if it is well designed i would pay abut 5-10$ per map
You could also add some decoration building or implement more living environment if it is nice done i also would pay for that.

I would rather pay for somthing like this as making progress but that's my personal opinion.

 

[DestroyerArcher]

As other said, extra bases would be nice. I could have a near-max road bonus base then swap to a resource protecting base when I know I will log off and be attacked.

 

[David Pasquinel]

Being able to save multiple layouts feature is a must.

Also, It would be nice if there is a dot on the ground to indicate where the real center of the map is, like CoC.

 

[atramar]

just thought of something. what if we get a nice squares on map editor? so it would be easier to determine where to start placing that wall without placing buildings first, or calculate distance from edge of the forest?

 

[oepuanna]

Like everybody said: There should be an option to save layouts.

 

[Aurelius...]

I just had a new thought. Why not allow us to revise which forests have been cleared in the editor? It would be great to have this additional layer of flexibility. The number of cleared forests could remain the same, but the ability to revise the layout in the editor would be fun.

Thanks for asking IronAngel. Map editor is one of the better features of the game. I agree with most on here... Save/load multiple layouts, the ability to have alliance members test your base, organize list by building type not alphabetically, grids to help plan and one I hadn't thought of but would love is the ability to rearrange uncleared forests. And on a purely frivolous note maybe some decorations or landscaping features to dress up our bases

 

[Parmenion]

Yes, like everyone else I'm glad to see the map editor being raised. I agree with a lot of the suggestions made by the other players. It could be nice to show the building connections percentage on screen as you edit the base and perhaps have a button that takes you to a slideshow of various base layouts for your particular age (just for ideas to get the ball rolling on your own base). That's just me thinking of new suggestions though and really I mainly want to see the following (just to recap suggestions already made):
​

1. The option to choose between 2 - 3 layouts
2. The option to save unfinished layouts
3. The option to move the base as a whole
4. A dot to mark the centre

Themes would be nice but seasons would make it more interesting too, with snow falling in the winter.

 

[Aussie guy]

Being able to run test attacks on base designs would be great. Its probably difficult to implement...but hey...they are asking for ideas.

 

[polo1967]

Once you clear all the forrests, as a bonus we get new terrains or seasonal changes in the areas surrounding our homelands as a bonus. Of course its just a cosmetic change but it would be nice to have some differences.

 

[Gambrinus]

I agree that it maybe difficult to implement, but how else are we supposed to have our bases ready for alliance wars if we can't test them first? It's a pretty common thing in the real world to run military test to find weakness in your defenses, so why not have them in a game that claims it's trying to be historically accurate?

 

[Jwinn]

Being able to save 3 different layouts would be nice. Also being able to save a draft of a work in progress

 

[Magenia]

Like everyone said before, being able to save multiple bases an unfinished layouts is a good start.
Perhaps, there should be some feature in between the erase mode and the pick up all, which can let you pick up blocks of buildings or same nature buildings, for example, all towers or all garrisons at the same time

 

[Eddie F1]

Being able to pickup the entire base and move it one square would be nice, as in just after a bout of forest clearance it's needs moving a bit, PITA one piece at a time.

 

[Onley]

I would love being able to pick up several items and move a few squares. Also being able to save while working on it. It takes forever and I don't often have such a huge chunk of time to devote all at once.
