Adding something to the existing UI would require patching it and I'd rather not do that for compatibility reasons. That's also why the preview and toolbar are simple windows on top of the world map, rather than directly integrated into its UI.

Well I didn't know you could toggle it, but if its meant to be faster to reroll, woulnt it be better placed on the bottom panel? instead of having to go to a tile to click it and then clic the button itself on the window next to the other small buttons

@BRSaura

Sorry that happened to you. However the point of that button is to allow quickly rerolling through many world seeds, so asking for confirmation would defeat the purpose. If you don't like this feature, you can disable it in the mod settings, in the "Toolbar" tab.

Bruh, 30 minutes finding a good location and spawning ruins in the world just to click the "reset" button in the window thinking it would reroll the map preview just for it to generate the entire planet again without even a warning

Thank you very much, o7

@Z9527

This mod does not have any function like that. You could try the "Save Maps" mod.

hey boss, I want to copy the terrain from position A to position B. Is that possible?

@they locked me in a room,

You can look for the Player.log file in your RimWorld directory and upload it to some filesharing service like http://paste.gg

im having issues with the mod for making maps on impassable map tiles. i tried uploading the log, but got told there was an upload error because of a bad request? is there another way i can do it?

@Thatkidfarout

Thanks for reporting, however unfortunately that log is filled with so many errors and messages from other mods that the end got cut off (logs get trimmed if too long to upload) and as a result the information about Map Preview is not included.

I recommend that you reduce your mod list a bit and especially get rid of the mods that are throwing errors. If you need help with that, I recommend asking in the #troubleshooting channel of the official RimWorld Discord server.

can someone help me out im having trouble pulling up the map preview menu. I use it to find maps i can use on console also idk if im doing this right I've never reported a issue.

i love it, because i am a mountian main, so finding the perfect mountian without seeing the map first takes like 15+ minutes, on top you can select what map it should be and save it for every spot.

@alldusty

I can't help you if you don't provide a log file. Press Ctrl + F12 in game to upload one.

Used this mod a lot and it was okay, but today when I tried to see the map's preview, the UI for it wasn't popping up. Anything I'm missing?

@Narada

No problem

@m00nl1ght Oh, very sorry about that! I never read logs in Rimworld before. I cleaned up some spammy mods. Will report back if it happens again, thank you.

@Narada

Thanks you for the log, however unfortunately it is not useful, because your other mods spammed it with so many errors that the relevant part at the end got cut off. (The log gets trimmed to 10000 lines). You might want to do some troubleshooting to figure out which of your mods are causing so many errors.

I got a "mod conflict" error when it tried to activate world map map preview:

@Church.exe

The xml is valid, and the game itself reads and handles it just fine. So it looks like this is an issue within RimSort.

Not certain if this is an issue with the mods or if it's Steam being annoying or something, but whenever I start Rimsort it gives the following error for both this mod, and Geological Landforms. (these are the only two mods it gives an error for)

About.xml syntax error. Unable to read <moddependenciesbyversion> tag from XML for version [v1.5]: /Path_To_Rimworld_Steam-Workshop_Mods/2773943594/About/About.xml
(the ID is obviously different, but it's the same error otherwise)

I took a look at the about.xml and couldn't see anything obviously broken, but Rimsort is definitely having some issues with it for some reason.

Thank you for fix update!

@Proxyer

Thank you for reporting, I have pushed another update to resolve the issue.
And as always, thanks for updating the translation.

Hello m00nl1ght. Thank you for new option update.
This may just be a problem with my testing mod environment, but I'm reporting it because two red errors are now being recorded.

"Tried to get a resource "RerollWorldSeedMP" from a different thread. All resources must be loaded in the main thread."
"Tried to get a resource "UI/Icons/Options/OptionsGeneral" from a different thread. All resources must be loaded in the main thread."

I hope this helps you solve the problem. Thank you.

@Hex: Pitiful End

As always, the latest version is available both on Steam and on GitHub.
GitHub is for people who use other launchers instead of Steam.

hey, rimpy said you've uploaded a new version of map preview to gittub, is that where your posting the mod now?

@Enlonwhite

Thank you for the kind words, much appreciated!

This mod has saved so many game, and given me so many fun situations/setups.

Please know you m00nl1ght are a Modder of Mods, that have my respect! I hope you realize that like for every one complainer you have 100 followers that love this mod. (if not more then that ratio)

So thank you! (Did I mention, TAKE MY POINTS again?)

@M

Out of 350k users, you are the first one to complain about the animation. I will not remove it just because one person doesn't like it. But I can add a setting for it, sure.

This mod is an incredible idea but the CONSTANT ZOOMING animation on the map preview gets REALLY annoying, especially if you are rerolling many times on the map seeds and then confirming it spams the ANIMATION AGAIN which gets silly and frustrating, much prefer when mods don't have what looks like visual lag with crazy animations like that or settings to turn that off are fantastic too for a mod with this useful utility, THANKS

@able

That does not tell anything useful at all. Please provide a full log file, otherwise I can't tell what the problem is. If you have HugsLib, you can press Ctrl + F12 (after the problem happened) to upload the log. If that doesn't work (or you don't have HugsLib) get this mod .

异常堆栈跟踪

异常开始于Verse.Map.FillComponents方法调用。
随后，异常被System.Reflection.MonoCMethod.InternalInvoke捕获，这是在Mono框架中用于通过反射调用方法的内部方法。
异常进一步向上传递到System.Activator.CreateInstance，这表明在尝试通过反射创建某个类型的实例时出现了问题。

我在保存存档时Visual Exceptions提示有错误，用AI分析了下之后显示这个：
在执行Verse.Map.FillComponents方法时，系统抛出了一个异常。异常类型为System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException，这通常意味着在调用某个方法或构造函数时，其内部又抛出了另一个异常。具体到这个案例，内部异常是System.NullReferenceException，表明有一个对象引用没有指向任何对象的实例。

@Ashen

Ok thanks, looks like that guide has not been updated for years, but I left a comment there.

It's "RIMWORLD PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION GUIDE (Rimworld 1.4 + All DLCs)" by Sylon

@Ashen

In old versions of the mod (1.3 era) there were some patches in this mod that could affect performance, but this has been reworked long ago, and nowadays patches are only applied while the preview is active. Which performance guide still mentions it?

Certain performance guides claim that this mod uses up a lot of performance, but I can't imagine that being true considering it's only in effect on the world map. Does it actually continue running in the background even when not being viewed, or is that just a false alarm?

@The Fecalmancer

Please provide a full log file, otherwise there is no way for me to tell what the problem is. If you have HugsLib, you can press Ctrl + F12 (after the problem happened) to upload the log. If that doesn't work (or you don't have HugsLib) get this mod .

@Neglevin

Looks like the combination of the mods ReBuild Doors and Corners and Archipelagos (continued) is what triggers it, either mod on its own works fine. I put it on the todo list of potential compatibility patches, but I'm not sure this is something I can even fix/prevent from my end.

i keep getting stuck on world map and cant actually click tiles and all i can do is use your toolbar

I think this mod is incompatible with Archipelagos (continued), I got this error when I clicked on an archipelago tile:

@Ionfrigate12345

No problem

Thanks for the quick fix

Update 1.12.15

- Fixed compatibility patch for recently updated mod Vehicle Framework
- Fixed preview not auto-refreshing when settings are changed

@Ionfrigate12345

Thanks for reporting, the compatibility patch is now updated.

Hi, Vehicle Framework just got updated then your mod popup error message on main menu

@Perez

I've tested with the exact mod list you have and no error is happening. Most likely you have some corrupted files, I recommend that you re-download all mods, verify integrity of game files, and reset your config.

https://prnt.sc/XWN3tLissjNj

The mod conflicts with the Harmony mod.

Oops i meant prepare carefully not your mod it good.

@Chesse5552024

What do you mean by "map search"? There is no search function in this mod.
