Thanks :D 

This is great, thanks Apollo.

Add the following to known bugs:
-Map doesn't properly redraw when the window is maximized, however it does properly redraw when the window size is changed otherwise.

I never use maximize, but that is an easy fix. You might have to deal with that inconvenience as I will try to add fixes to bugs in the bug tracker to the next release as well. 

What's the max limit of coordinates for this editor? I would like to be able to go up to 2,500x2,500 on a map for personal use, not an actual in-game map. If that would be possible, I'd be extremely grateful.

I think this post is just a few patches, you'd be better off posting about an upgraded map size limit on the topic sausage posted. He's got a lot of process into a new official map editor that looks really promising!

Fixed to apply save on close for when the escape key is pressed on a keyboard as well as patched the min/max bug. Download link is the same for 0.3.3b

I have updated this to 0.3.3d. Major changes are applying the previous patches to the closest source to the actual one that was compiled for 0.3.1b. Stability seems to be much improved.

Cool to see this being worked on, thanks! It seems pretty glitchy and buggy for me, but it's probably down to my pc.
The save dialog on exit is nice. I'll have to test this out more later and post what I mean by glitches.

I have noticed no difference in performance between this and 0.3.1b. The original build used a slightly different version of allegro. I had a couple of official builds labeled 0.3.0 and 0.3.1 and there is very little actually different between them. I don't think even Sausage is certain of which code collection became 0.3.1b, but at least there is a ballpark here to work with so this is at least the closest official build upgrade in about 4 years.

Performance is much better in 0.3.3d.

In the most recent build, resizing the palette redraws the map view and resizing the map view redraws the palette. I think some wires might be crossed there, because it appears to redraw them differently/incorrectly somewhat based on the size of the other window?

Thanks again for what you've been doing with this release.

EDIT: Unfortunately found a reasonably serious bug. While scrolling down in the tile palette, suddenly the mapper throws up a "failed to read tile" error message and exits. This behavior is not present in 0.3.1b and also wasn't present in previous iterations of this mapper (as far as I noticed or anyone else noticed.) For reference, I am using BU graphics.

This is the error message, along with the exact spot of the palette where it comes up.

Fixed

This is much better than the last update I tried.
Looks like you fixed a lot of the alignment issues/glitches I was having, and it definitely seems to be more responsive.

Good job on this, thanks!

For some reason when I go to run your program it wont let me run it just gives me errors I have the eomap3.exe in my EO folder am I doing something wrong?

You are probably missing necessary files that are not included in the github, such as Allegro 5.

Though this is an unfinished project at the moment and if Sausage ever does decide to continue it, it'll probably have an official release in the downloads section here. I don't have any faith in the development of this ever being finished, though, seeing as it has been 6 months or so since he's done anything with it.

Ignore this. I read this as the completely wrong topic.
