Just to clarify for anyone else reading this, the initial point you use to select the entity to trace is very important, because the trace will ALLWAYS go through this point, so this point must be somewhere on the section of the entity that is part of the trace.

Yes, the newer(larger) one is a new version. It fixes several bugs that were found with the original one, so you should install it.

FT3+ uses a new data directory, similar to CC3+, instead of keeping files in the installation directory, so you'll need to copy it to there if you want easy access. Strictly speaking, the terraformer material doesn't really integrate with FT, it just provides a bunch of files FT can use, so it can live mostly anywhere, but inside the new data directory (c:\program data\ProFantasy\FT3) is the best place to keep them for easy access.

The mention of Dune and your maps make me think back to the original Dune II computer game. It set the standards for the future of the RTS genre, and provided me lots of fun in my younger days. Fond memories.

You should find the full user manual in @Documentation, as well as the Tome if you own it. All the files in @Tutorial should belong to one of the pdf's in @Documentation. Remember, even the quick start guides and essentials can have support files, they are mostly similar to the annual documentation, with a quick walkthrough of the program/add-on and making a sample map with it. The files in @Examples are just pure examples for you to look at, with no accompanying documentation.

For a Schley-based tutorial, I guess the first map tutorial in the manual would be the place to go. (And/Or the one in the Tome)

Everyone have the CC3, DD3 and CD3 buttons, as both dungeon and city tools are included in the CC3+ base these days (Only the tools, you need the products to have the artwork, but the tools are very useful with artwork from other products, like SS4/5 or the annuals)

The WW2 button should be added as long as you have the WWII.mnu file in your data directory (which should be put there by the installer).

Looks very nice, but since you have gone for a more "expanded" settlement view, instead of a single symbol, maybe that dashed line for the road isn't the best, as it crashes a bit with the rest of the visual. Those dashed lines work best when you keep everything on an "abstract" level (Such as using a single symbol to represent a town).

All tutorial maps from the user manual should be in @Tutorials\UserManual. If any are missing, I'd very much like to know which. And yes, they are installed along with CC3+.

And yes, this is a good place to seek wisdom. :)

CC3+ doesn't have a way of changing the colors of the UI.

However, you can change the map background color from white to black (View -> View-Window Color, and set it to color 0), this will get rid of a lot of the white. Not sure if that is enough for your use case or not, since the rest of the UI will still be the standard light grey. (Note that this setting is a per-map setting, so you can't set it globally, and once you set the background black, you'll probably immediately notice the white screen that is around most maps, which then also can be changed to black via :CC2MCHANGE: on the entity)

Kangaroos in the Snow?

For you southerners, I do remind you that I wrote winter or holiday themed, so a typical Aussie Christmas scene is fine, it don't need to be wintery if it looks Christmassy.
