    yes, open "settings.txt" and break the 1024x768 line with a pipe or something then fix the appropriate size, you can also add your own size of window.

    uh, lol. I have no idea how you managed to get it into a .File. I think that usually means an unknown file type. The code saves it as a .png then you just put it in the maps folder or whatever and change the configs.

    How do you test the map ingame?

    I figured out how to get a .png file.

    easiest way is to change the swordfight mapcycle.cfg or something a long those lines it can be found in Base/Maps. Not sure on the actualy name, but you will see a line that goes something like this:

    map_cycle = Maps/duel2.png; Maps/duel.png;

    add your map here

    map_cycle = Maps/superawesomemap.png;

    Then go into sword fight training against the bots to test it.

    make sure that blue is on the left and red is on the right and that they are a few blocks in and thats all.

    I have done that but it still won't work, it just turns the map to bedrock and the players fall out of the sky.

    oh... *sadface* well consider it a suggestion, as well as a fill tool. because of all the dirt underground in the normal maps, it takes forever to fill it all in!
