What about an editor for maps?

How about an editor for maps (like in many other games)?
So the official team could save time and staff and even meet the needs of the community. One simply says: The next map should be e.g. be prairie and make it a competition.
Also: There are a lot of bugs on the current maps. Trees whose roots are floating, small ponds with slightly flowing water (illogical), wrong vegetation in different places, strange hills on agricultural fields, black, stony soils on which corn is supposed to grow etc., if the old maps are not already officially fixed, why not allow the fanbase to optimize these maps?
It would be very positive for the community and would benefit the game. A classic win-win situation. As formerly with Rockstar and GTA 3, VC, SA ... the modding scene has kept the games alive for years, even when the game was already totally greasy.

What do you think THC-team?
Is there already such an editor or would it have to be redeveloped?

It's been asked for and they will probably never make a custom map editor.
If you look in the SEARCH function you will find topics that have been asked about or brought up in the forums.
Have a good 1..........

The more we speak about things it might happen, a map editor is what makes a game a good game. I would buy this game if we get one. Be worth it.

This feature was talked about before,.. use the search function and there are posts which best describes why it hasn't been made.
This game is not DH2005 that had a custom map editor,... even in that game the custom map editor had to be made by a programmer,.. as programmers write code and the map editor was for the
players benefit. This is a different game and is coded entirely differently than the DH series was made,.. and it may be just too difficult for them to program a custom map
maker to actually work fluently with all the ongoing updates with the base of the game, let alone producing a game editor that would have to be updated to fit any new
features included with original maps to function correctly. This game came out in 2008 so there is a lot of things that you may find in the Search Function that has been requested
many times over within that time span. Some things make it to the drawing board and other things sometimes are just not feasible in even trying to make them even though it sounds
like a great suggestion......... ;)
