Change Map IDs

[arnquist 0]

I didn't make my maps in any specific order so the IDs are totally random. I want to use the map ID variable in a common event. Is there a way to change map IDs? It would be extremely helpful.

Maps end up as files, as far as I can tell. I believe if you simply rename them, that should work, but I'd experiment with my suggestion before you actually take a crack at it.

Thanks for the reply! I got a similar answer on another forum, so I bet it works. But, I've given up on my original Zelda style grid map, so I don't need to change map IDs anymore. Thanks though. ^_^;

You can rename them manually, but you would then have the problem of updating all references to the map. This includes the mapInfos.rxdata which the editor and some custom scripts uses.
