I didn't see this in the list under "units", so I'll suggest it here:
MAP-REVEALERS ARE BLOCKING AIR-UNITS, that's annoying, how about to be allowed placing over map-revealers although air-stack is disabled?

Repeating my post because it was ignored.

I have a strange suspiction map revealers might interfer with air units in-game displacing preplaced ones.

Map revealers can't even be detected with locations, how could they be displacing units?

They aren't detected. Incomoplete buildings aren't detected with modifiers exactly or at least. Units in transports and bunkers aren't detected with modifier at most. Queen is not detected with bring while infesting a CC. Scaner sweep is not detected by bring, but still can't be casted when there is units limit. Finally hallucinations aren't detected, but noone is in doubt they are units. These all are units, why aren't revealers? Revealers also won't be created when there is units limit and creating revealers with triggers on a location displaces them if there are other air units and crashes SC if there is not enough space.

Though the displacement on initialization (map start) or displacement of the other air units by revealers is only a theory of mine (easily chekable, but I am sorry to have no time and motivation to check at the moment).

I'll check out the map revealer thing, that should not happen.

Lord malvanis: you are talking about the unit palette which scmdraft does not have, I dont see how it has anything to do with a recode of the strings tab in map settings which as I mentioned is not public yet.

SI, you've read my PM but didn't answer D:
Anyways, may I recall you guys that being able to stack map revealers was a suggestion for SCMD2's features (which I think got adopted). If this is done, I do not think there would be any interference with the air units

EDIT: Nvm... we can stack air units in the editor, but when game starts, they get displaced... Me was wrong ;o

If you've been able to add a "Isom mirror" tool, wouldn't you be able to include in the Tileset Index a little box with the mirrored tile of the actually selected tile (only a single tile) ?

Okay, I never said anything about recoding the strings tab in map settings. Idk wtf your talking about there. All I'm asking for is to have the regular pallette back. Plus I gave you a report about the zoom feature crashing SCMDraft.

Did anyone mention that the Sound Editor doesn't show the lengh of how long the wavs should be, which is BS. Has that been fixed yet?

Also, I know it got requested already, but just as a reminder: a STOP button for the playing WAVs please?

And add play and stop hotkeys for faster searching through the wavs.

Map revealers displacing air units is crazy talk.

Updated the download with map scroll via middle mouse button.

Malvanis: I mentioned earlier that I was working on doing that, and your reply was that the palette window was still missing. Also to fix the crash I will need to give you a custom version of scmdraft with more logging since it does not crash on my vista install.

Payne: There aren't even mirrors available for all tiles, that is not really possible. As for the stop button, the other day when researching some stuff for work I stumbled upon some code that may allow me to do that, will have to test it.

Ryu: do you mean the MPQ sounds or the custom added sounds?

Idk if you've done this/people have suggested this already, but could you make a better text trigger editor?

I love you.

Updated OP

Currently not really planned, maybe if I have alot of freetime. The current one was written by DW and I am glad I can maintain it but I have little experience with such apps.

While you're here- we need need need the ability to place bookmarks in the classic trigedit window. I'm coming up on 15k triggers right now.

I only have 1k triggers, and it's a hassle to run through them all.
