Breaking the land mass in half
I was wondering if there is a way to split my map into two land masses. I had my world go through a cataclysm and it split the cont. into two land masses, and was wondering if the program can do that? If it can't maybe a feature added in the future that can allow us to cut islands off our map or split into 2 masses. thanks

- Just make a copy of the landmass, then use the edit feature of the landmass drawing tool to remove one of the halves from each drawing
- or draw two new landmasses, using the trace feature of the landmass drawing tool to trace parts of the coastline of your old landmass (then deleting the old one in the end)
- or using the cut/break tools, remove undesired parts, draw new parts, and then combine them back into polygons again
- Delete your black outline of of the landmass (if any).
- Now use "Split" at the two points where you want to separate the piece from the landmass. This will turn your polygon into two paths.
- Use "Path to Poly" (right-click Explode button) to turn the two paths back into polygons.
- Use "Outline" on the two polygons to recreate the black coastline.
- Move one piece aways from the other to separate them.
