hey guys, ive just started toying with the mission editor and wondered if anyone could help me understand something.

I get most of the interface, its pretty straight forward, what i dont quite undersstand is the what the symbols on the maps represent. I understand that an X represtns where an ally, rescue or defendable object can be places, and i understand that a O represents where an ambush can be placed etc. What i dont get is what the smaller and larger dots represent, and also the triangles.

Any help with the Map Icon Key would vbe greatly appreciated.

The triangles are pieces of the triforce. You must get 8 of them to defeat Gannon!

...Okay, I actually have no idea. Sorry =(

Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)

Off the top of my head, I can't remember which icons represent what, but the small dots are where spawns occur, be they regular or patrols, the rest are rescue/ally spots, floor items, wall items, boss spawn spots, etc.

Also, when you're looking at a specific mapset instead of 'random' (located under the Map Length dropdown) there'll be a layout of it on the right hand side. right above that map on the top right hand side is a ? in a blue box. (They're all over the place in the MA UI, and they're great!) Just click on it, and it'll give you a legend explaining what each of the icons on the maps are.

Hope this helps!

I couldn't agree more.
