Exported bitmap of map partially colorless
« on: November 12, 2007, 07:37:00 pm »

in the newest versions 27.169.32a and 33a, whenever i export a bitmap of my generated map, parts of it aren't colored.

Here are some pictures to show what i'm talking about.

In this first picture, which unfortunately had to be dramatically shrunk, it looks as though only the top third of the map was fully colored, and then only spots here and there for the rest.  Because it's really hard to see what's going on, what with the shrunkeness and everything, here is just a portion of the map.

Parts are colored, parts aren't.

And just to let you know, this is without me modding or reconfiguring anything.  Straight out of the box, so to speak.  Inside the game, everything is colored appropriately, and the detailed map is colored fine as well.

What season is it?

I think the white is snow.

The world map shows temperature on forests and such. The location-picker maps show alignment instead. There's nothing wrong with that world map, you just have a very cold world.

I'm surprised there isn't more glaciation.

It's not supposed tto show snow on the exported map, so yes, it is a bug.

It shows snow on exported maps the same way it shows other seasonal effects like autumn color and dry grass.  In the old version, weather was handled different, so it wouldn't show snow on a map that hadn't been used yet.  People like seeing the autumn color, so there should probably be two export options, or something.
