Empire Earth 2
Scenario Editor Overview (Part 8)



Map Overview

The final set of options is under the "Map" menu. These options area are used to provide a summary list of various items within your scenario, so that you can quickly review your scenario and make sure everything is set up properly. Like the map size, number of objects and units per player, and have all the resource spots set up for example. You can see the "Map" menu in the picture below left, and the "Map Overview" panel below right:


Scenario Lists

The next option you have under the "Map" menu, is the "Object List". This invokes a display window that lists and summarizes all objects that belong to each player, and also neutral World objects. You can access each list by clicking on either the Player or World tab in the Object List window. The list includes the player who owns the object, its name, its type, its group, the epoch it belongs to, its RPS relation category, its X-Y coordinates, and angle. You can see the Object list in the picture below:

The final option you have under the "Map" menu, is the "Territory List". This invokes a display window that lists and summarizes all territories that you have created on the map. The list includes the name of each territory, its script name, its owner, its status, the center X-Y coordinate of the territory, and its size in number of tiles. You can see the Territory list in the picture below:


Final Words

As you can see there are many great features in the Empire Earth 2 scenario editor. There are a number of things which are currently limited by the inability to great Scripts for scenarios. Of course you can create multiplayer maps without much hinderance, since they will be less likely to need scripting to create a winning condition or control any AI opponents. That being said we eagerly await word from Mad Doc on their scenario scripting facility. But using the basic victory condition lists, and the variety of objects and map editing function available, you can create some very interesting and entertaining scenarios!
