Exporting a map zone?
 
Hello!
Is there any way of exporting/importing only one zone from a map?

Me and my brother play the same mud, and share our maps (sending them back and forth) and it'd be good if we could just send the parts that we edited, preserving other changes.

I think you use to be able to do this with the .map files, but now it's all in one big 'ol mdb, rgiht?

Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Matt

PS - what about if i shared the map, would we bother be able to use the same file at once or would it cause sharing conflicts?

The zMapper product preforms exporting into many formats. This is the optimal way to go, as you are assured that all necessary information will be available for importing. The alternate method is a complex script that creates a new map database with just the one zone, or copy the .map file on your harddrive and open it with zMud and delete all zones you don't want to transfer.
