Resetting Map/Radar after creating a scenario

Post by Trepidati0n »

So, I ran the function to create a scenario of one of my save games. Did it so the game continues to be fun for me (e.g. I wanted to fill a small lake in because it was annoying me). However, after editing and loading up the scneario...my map/radar is still the old version. Any way to "reset" this? Do care if I lose my current scanning.

Odd...just updated to 11.11 and it "fixed" itself.

For future reference: yes you can!

Open up the console and enter "/c game.player.force.rechart()" (without the quotes, of course) to invalidate the map and it will update itself.

Is there a way to reset the radar? Would like to release a save that I think players might appreciate.

That Doesn't delete everything I've already seen. That is my issue. I want it to look "virgin".

It's not a save, it's a scenario

Actually, there is a method clearchart, it does exactly that, it wasn't just documented on the wiki, so I added it.
