Hints and Tips for the Sudbury Templates


Map Click on the Example link on the template to see The Road from Sudbury to Santepa map. Templates The instructions provided in these Hints and Tips assume that you have a grasp of the basic CC2 Pro commands and features. If you need help with basic CC2 Pro commands and features, please do the tutorials in the CC2 Pro chapters of the Tome before beginning these instructions. Bitmaps Using bitmaps in CC2 Pro as Fill Styles brings a little different element to the mapping process. Be aware that the bitmap fills will not visibly show they have been selected when executing commands. Instead of looking for the entity to grey out to show it has been selected, watch your command line to see the entity count.

The map on which the Sudbury style is based is a strip map made in a similar fashion to those made by such folks as John Ogilvy in the late 1600s and early 1700s. Maps other than strip maps can be made with the tools provided with the templates, but give strip mapping a try. It could add a new dimension to your game.

Bitmaps
The bitmaps loaded in the Tome Sudbury templates as Fill Styles are shown here:

Drawing Tools
Drawing Tools The drawing tools can be accessed by clicking the Drawing Tools button on the template. To navigate to the drawing tools while working, click Zoom Extents. Click Drawing Tools, then select the tool you wish to use. Click Zoom Last to return to the place on the map in which you were working.

The drawing tools provided for the Sudbury templates are as follows:

Making Roads
There are three road tools; Main Road, Side Road, and Road Area. Road Area will make a poly with the road bitmap to create larger paved areas. The road bitmap will be placed on the ROADS layer. After your roads and road areas are drawn, Front the ROADS layer to eliminate the black lines that cross the road bitmap.
Front The tools will place the road bitmap on the ROADS layer and the black outline on the ROADS BASE layer. You can front the ROADS layer or you can use Send Behind with the right click selection menu to push the outline back by color Black.

Symbols
Since this is a Mini Pack, there are a select few symbols included that will allow a map similar to the example map to be created. The symbols are already loaded into the Sudbury templates. Click Drawing to find the available symbols in the template.

The Sudbury symbol catalog is also available in the Symbols/Suite/Tome Sudbury.FSC.

Edited For more information on editing symbols, see the section on Cloning and Editing symbols in the Tome.

Other symbols available in your CC2 Pro Symbols folder can be edited to use in the Sudbury templates. Use the bitmap fills to replace the fills in the existing symbols or you can add the bitmap fills to existing Line symbols. We suggest trying the line symbols in the Symbols/Maps/Tome folder.
