Error in map testing...

[Gurlugon]

I received this error: "There was an error trying to load the file 'luxmap'.

java.lang.Exception: Error in <line>: null" following "Step 8 - Editing the army locations." in the "Make your own map" tutorial.

Anyone have a hint as to how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I suppose this would help (sorry for the side-scrolling):

I just wanted to throw a simple map together, hence the fact there are only ten countries.

[rip]

Well, Country 0 has no adjoining countries. That probably throws the parser off.

Is this map 'complete' or are you trying to load it after each incremental change?

[Gurlugon]

It's complete. Here's the map: http://img16.photobucket.com/albums/v47 ... luxmap.jpg

The IDs: http://img16.photobucket.com/albums/v47 ... mapids.jpg

So, I should work on the whole adjoining countries part, and see if it works then?

EDIT: W00t w00t, I got it working. Had to iron out some kinks with the army display on one of the small islands, but the map is done. Thanks, rip.

I think the reason for the error was an empty <line> tag:

<line><position></position></line>

[Gurlugon]

Well, I found a bug, and now I'm trying to update the maps page with the fixed-up version, but it's telling me that the filename is different, even though it looks like it very much ain't. :/

I'd simply rename the file / change the title, but then it would clutter the maps page.

[dustin]

OK, that feature is a new addition to the maps page. Could you email me your updated map and I will look into it.

Your updated map should now appear, and the problem fixed so that updates are easier. The filename no longer matters at all.
