Title: Terrain name
Post by: pembquist on September 25, 2013, 07:09:55 PM

It may be obvious but not to me. If the name isn't on the map where do you look to find the name of the terrain you are flying above/on/into?

I think the top right corner of all maps have the name on them.

All but mindanao and beta2

One (cumbersome) way would be to load a terrain offline (by selecting it's name in the list) and see if it's the one you are looking for. If so, you have the name...

But maybe this can help: 12 out of the 13 terrains currently in the MA rotation, only CraterMa (Greebo's map with the tank town crater in the center) is missing.

Note too the scale is missing on the unnamed ones.

Thank you. I must always be looking for the name when the untitled ones are up.

You can get this info in any map by the following menu sequence:

Options - Preferences - Arena Setup - CM Tools - Arena Tables (look at upper left).
