I know this isn't the right place to introduce my self, but I figure I might as well make this my introduction as well since it's also my first post. Ive been following sc2mapster for a while and finally realized I might as well get my self an account with you guys. Thanks for all the great custom maps we got to try out pre-bnet custom mapping. Anywho!! The question... I'm working on a map but I'm clearly super novice... its a remake of an old map that I did not create, but I wont mention what it is yet.. hopefully Ill be the first to (re)make it, and do it well... so...
QUESTION: I added roads to the map to test a little something out. After saving the map and exiting the editor for another day, I come back to it to find I have no idea how to remove the darned roads! So if someone knows the magic sequence of clicks and keystrokes to make road removal possible please let me know... and if it's a painfully obvious procedure, then please don't be too harsh on me :P.
Little more info... I made a buncha maps in sc1... well.. sorta.. they never made it to bnet... cuz although the design was always amazing (pats self on back) my dreams always died at triggers lol... some of them were pretty original too.. shame :P... maybe theyll get their chance to shine in sc2... assuming I become anywhere near as talented as you all are with this editor.
Open your terrain layer, click the 'add road' buddon, and instead of the circle that adds more roads, hit spacebar to unload the tool and little green arrows are visible (to move preplaced roads, change directions etc), once you have one selected there will be a little green glow to it...
ah ha! success! Thanks Tridgit! :) And I guess I should apologize before I get scolded for posting a question that was already answered...
In my defense it was about 2 am when I posted my question... hadn't even crossed my mind. I'll be more careful in the future :P. Thanks again! :D... I'm gonna love having you guys around to answer the trillions of my map editing questions xD.
Muahahahahaha... be prepared... be VERY... prepared...

It seems impossible to do for me, im using a mac. Any suggestion?
open the road placing menu of the Terrain Editor then hit esc and drag select the blighters before pushing the big delete button.
And to think I once mocked necro threads that were over years old.
