sorry if this has been suggested before

how about a function where mapmaker can automatically compile the map and scenery into a zip folder or folder somwhere on your hardrive ready to be compressed with the file system intact with the scenery files as well?

opinions?

huh?
umm....what's the point?

Faster and easier distribution of your map, I guess... But I hardly think the time of putting your map in a zip file and all can/should be compared to the time of making your actual map.

You know how right now, if you decide to make a scenary map, when you try to make it into a zip file, you have to dig though all your scenary and try to find them all, and then put it in a zip file. What Steelix is saying is that the zip file looks at your scenary list (Or even better, checks the map for all the scenary that is needed, and puts it into a zip file.

^^^ Would be the greatest thing to ever happen to mapmaker, because in my sceenery heavy maps, I tend to forget which I'm using.
