Hi,
I do have some Maps, especially earth maps with centered Asia - with Europe/Africa on the left edge and America on the right edge.
I wanted the map shifted, so Europe is in the mid, left America and on the right side Asia.
I could not find a tool to make this easy. Only the very hard way - by hand - in the save file, changing all coordinates.
O.k. I do a tool for this. Done withPureBasic V6.20
Now with the tool you can shift a map as you like. All plot informations is shifted too, so units, cities, etc. stay on the right position on the shifted map. Even start locations will be mentained. An chiniese Settler stays in China
Future plans are to add features like erase all cities, players, etc. from a map and probably rescaling (shrink and enlarge - idea is by changeing Map to a jpeg and then back with other resolution)
See now a world map before and after shifting.
File is attached.
Have fun, if you like it
