November 2023 Humble Bundle collection
It's more a collection of maps this time, AEIOU, along with the core app - naturally. All the CC maps are provided in hi res png format alongside the FCW file where it is available.
Not all of the maps are CC. I helped to process a very small section of the collection and saw some really beautiful hand drawn/painted maps by Alyssa Faden among others.
The CC maps have been rendered both with and without labels/grids.

"Converting" paper/image maps to CC/CD
Hi CheeseshireCat :)
You can import the bitmap file into CC3 on it's own sheet and layer using Insert file in the Draw menu. (Create the BITMAP sheet and layer first and make sure they are active)
An open file dialog will pop up allowing you to pick your bitmap file. Then follow the instructions in the command line at the bottom of the window to pick the first and second corners for your image. if you need to move or scale it you can do that using the same commands you would use for polygons or symbols.
Then use the drawing tools and symbols to recreate your map.
You should be able to add a transparency effect to the BITMAP sheet to make tracing easier.

Unexpected results from Multipoly
Yes. Jim is correct. The first thing I do when I get a problem map is use List from the Info menu on the problem polys or symbols just to see what sheet and layer everything is on. I could see there was a duplicate because the count in the command line was instantly 2 instead of 1 object selected. When I pressed D for Do It the information for that red poly came up twice - on two different layers.

An arcology dungeon
I think you have a positioning problem with the overlying sheets. The bevel looks fine, but the rest of the pyramid isn't lined up properly with it. They have to be squares that are exactly in the middle of each other all the way up.
I can't see a thing but a sea of red crosses in the drawing, but I can see the problem from the image you posted.
