Every region in the map needs to be separated by a solid black line. It could also be that the wrong coordinates for either the regions or the abbreviations are entered in the regional_variables file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardrightconservative Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Do you have a solid black spot at the coordinates 193, 169 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapA2040 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 how big must the spot be? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just one solid black pixel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiberalPA Posted July 20, 2005 Author Share Posted July 20, 2005 Just one solid black pixel. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Heres what the map looks like right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerry Edwards for President Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Heres what the map looks like right now. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Are you sure you are putting the co-ordinates in the right place the file? And is the black dot really black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiberalPA Posted July 20, 2005 Author Share Posted July 20, 2005 Are you sure you are putting the co-ordinates in the right place the file?

HabsFan21 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 imstill not sure exactly where the co-ordinates have to be. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 1: Go to paint 2: in the right hand corner, there are two numbers X,Y 3: Go to the EXACT place of the black point, and look down at those numbers. Jot them down 4: Go to the "reigons_Variables" file and put them in where asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jot them down 4: Go to the "reigons_Variables" file and put them in where asked. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> it turns out i also had a dot a 193,170. i got rid of that, fixed up the border a bit, put the coordinates 193,169 in the region variables, but the message is still there. BTW in electorate trends, if i only have one region, how many regions should i say i have because it says" put in the number of regions your country has (plus one for DC)" so do i say zero because 0+1 would give me 1 region, or 1 because i dont have DC?

I would recommend more regions in a scenario but that is at your discretion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
