just played my first online game and I played a map which was definitely not made on the terrain editor. It had too much detail and colour. Then i joined a roping game on a massive tower. How do you make these maps?

For a quick checklist of things you need to do to get a full color, large size map working, follow these points:

1. Creat your map in an image editing program.
2. Use the color black as your transparent space (where worms will be walking).
3. Export or save the map as a PNG 8 file, using only 64 colors (for no loss), or up to 113 colors (may experience graphical oddities).
4. As a matter of choice, you may want to set the dithering amount on the save options between 75-100%, as this tends to look a little cleaner in 64-color maps.
5. Place the PNG file in your SavedLevels folder.
6. Open worms and go into the editor. Choose the level from the drop down box and exit the editor.
7. Play it, sucka!
