Mac Map...the house that welcomes you in, but will not let you out...
Hi.
I was playing a scenario with the Mac Map. I selected a point in Gettysburg, and I got locked inside the house. Who knows maybe I got locked inside Norb's Warehouse. I also created a save while inside the building. When I reloaded the save game I was back at the beginning, with my troops.
Here are some pics...
Later!

I assume your joking, but just in case...if you click inside a structure from the map, you're trapped. To escape, bring up the map again, click outside somewhere...you're free.

I never thought to use the map again to get out (Haaaaa, figures). I tried everything else but that... :blink:
Cheers, and Thanks.

It's actually the Adventure games that cursed me to a life of gaming. Remember the good old text adventures like Pirates by Scott Adams?mikesla wrote:

I had much more energy then....now it gets a bit difficult to have a good fart without straining something. :ohmy:
