Slow down with custom made symbols.

C.C. Charron

I made custom hex map symbols and started making a map with them. Eventually a slow down happens after filling out the map. I have a pretty powerful PC so I don't think that is the problem.

Is there something I should be aware of when making symbols? Most of them are drawn with the draw tools.

The main thing that slows CC3 down is the number of nodes, whether that is in an enormously intricate coastline, or a highly precises vector drawing of a tree used lots of times over the map.

The alternative to using lots of vector symbols is to create a png bitmap symbol of the same thing and use that instead.
