Giants Editor make buyble land

[FJohannesson]

Hello!
I was going to do some edits to Elmcreek and make land buyble. I can paint and everything but when i save the map and then open the map again the land i make buyble has gone back to the original color and i can’t buy it. What i am doing wrong?

I know ho to paint and the other things the explain in the video but when i have painted a bit of land and then i save the map and its says that is Saving. Then i open up the map again after the save and then the bit of land i painted is back to its original color which is not buyble in game. Why wont it save? All this is in giants editor.

The way I understood it from the video is that you don't need the editor at all. Shywizard says in the video multiple times that every pixel of the map must be painted or you get errors. That means an already finished map like elmcreek is already all painted. All you should have to do is open the farmlands.xml and add a new line.

<farmland npcName="NPC_US_03" priceScale="1" id="62"/>

Change the "id" to 63 save the file and next time you open the map the unbuyable land should be buyable.

There is a xml in the map folder (I think it was called farmlands.xml) that has a line for every farmland id. Copy & paste new lines at the end and change to the new numbers you need. Then you can go back to the editor and assign them how you want.

Added it in farmlands.xml
And is more field went back into giant editor Doesn't show farmlands.xml Doesn't show the extra Farmland I've added in
