A way to change map size?

[luzonph]

Hello all. I want to know if there is a way to make the size of an existing map slightly larger, like adding two rows of grids etc. Or is a map size permanent once it is made? Thanks.

Load the map in Conquests editor(Civ 3 editor if Vanilla), do what you want with the map, and re-save it.

i know that, i think he meant that he made a map but wants to make it bigger.
also you can permanently change map sizes. is that what you want

One thing you can't do is change the map size in the middle of a game.

No I want to change the map size in the editor. I want to add two more rows of grids on the bottom.

You would need to 'draw' the entire map on a larger 'canvas'. A rather tedious process, as it would mostly be done one tile at a time.

Having the map seed might help. Then he'd just have to make it a few rows higher. Might mess up some other stuff. Never tried using the seed from one map size on another map size tho.

Hmm dow exactly do I get the map seed, and how do I change it so my map becomes slightly larger?

Assuming you're playing a game, CivAssistII will be able to give you the map seed. I think if you try and generate a new world, you can also see the map seed there too. Then just increase the X rows by two.
