File/Create Map Image (problem?)

Post by Lobster »

When you create a map image of a full sized (700x700) map you have to be zoomed out to one of the two smallest zoom levels. Any closer in and the game tells you it can't do it (Do it yourself it says). For the farthest zoom level the map looks okay as seen below then go to second post except it's only good for the most general planning purposes:

But when you go to the next closer one the map is stretched vertically:

So, two things.

1) Can we please eliminate the vertical stretch?

2) Can we please allocate more memory for the map capture so it zooms in one more level for planning purposes? That would be the three farthest out zoom levels instead of just the two farthest out zoom levels. That way the max sized map could be captured at the three farthest out zoom levels.
