Mapping with multiple people

[M4573R]

How would you have multiple people working on the same map at the same time? Is there a way to transfer data like that? Or does one person have to work on it then send it to another to work on it and back and forth and so on. As far as i know you cant import specific units and abilities and what not. ???????

Generally you send the map around. Or you live close enough to the person helping you for you to just go over to his house or something.

You can export the Custom Object data, which includes units, abilities, items, etc. You can also export triggers. So it is possible to do that, but if you have more than one person working on abilities or units or something you'll have to send it from one person to another.

You could get one person doing triggers and he/she can export them, a person could be doing terrain and he/she saves the map and a person could be doing abilities and export them and so on and so on...

And if you'd like you could have a person collect everything to make it all one file, or you could give someone multable tasks either way it has to be done and you will all have to send all the files to this person.

In my map-making group, we generally do sections: one person does terrain, one does object editing, one does triggers, etc. You can export object editing and triggers fairly easily, then import them into the map with terrain.
