Building Interiors on CC3+ Maps

Are there tools to aid with centering?
I prefer the map center to be the 0,0 coordinate on some maps - primarily my whole world maps. I unhide and unfreeze all sheets and layers except the "Template" layer, then do a n0n-visual move. I select everything, set the center of the map as the origin of the move (I usually have to do this visually using the snap grid), then type 0,0 as the destination, hit "Do It," and Bob's Your Uncle.
So far it hasn't seemed to present any difficulties or errors down the line, and this makes the 0,0 coordinate the map center so it seems like it would work for JulianDraco's needs as well.

Why should I buy CC3+?
I found myself wishing I could both "Awesome" and "Insightful" this! Very interesting (to me) that some folks who find CC too difficult to learn have bought it not once, but twice... and for redonculous amounts of money. There must be something very attractive about the software to entice this irrational expenditure.

[WIP] Community Atlas Competition: Tân-Rhew
Got the floor and walls for Rhew knocked out today. For me, this is the easy part. Just like with city maps, I struggle with the trappings so the difficult part comes next.
The general idea is that the portal from the cold/hot island in Alarius will open into the large circular room in the corresponding side of the dungeon. Travelers then move from there through the dungeon to the smaller circular room. Each room in that trip prepares a different part of them (body, mind, spirit?) for the move from one small circular room to the other. They then make the reverse trip from small circle to large, being prepped along the way for the transportation through the portal in the large circle room to the island at the other end of Alarius. So it's a faster way to travel from one end of Alarius to the other, but the trials involved in moving through the process make it difficult, and not a journey to be taken lightly.
