That can be done with out-of-bounds emitters, I think.

Do you mean the emitter is invisible? It could indeed have been placed outside the playing field by accident. If you did, there's no way to remove it (as far as I know) and you have to recreate your map from scratch again.... :(

The strange thing is that you haven't even started playing yet (I see: 'Mission Time: 0:00'), so how is that possible?

PS: you can also make screenshot's by pressing the BackSpace-key in CW. The image will be saved in your Documents\creeperworld_screens' folder (and will only contain the CW-screen).

Play your map. Press 'backspace'. Start CW Map Editor. Use your screenshot as background. Now you can remade the map.

You'll have to cut off the bottom (buttons and energy/score display) first.

But first please post that map here, so we can have a look at it.

Just use Snapshot to take a pick of only the terrain:

Why use overcomplicating software when paint and prt scrn/CW has the functions needed?

Overcomplicated? It's easier than the other stuff cause you can then save the picture to any format you want. Not to mention you don't have to cut anything off since you can just choose not to include it when you take a picture.

Try it yourself if you don't believe me.

Heheh! I like it that everything is subject to discussion on this forum. I guess that's what you get when a game attracts relatively smart people.

To be honest I don't like Paint that much, especially when you like to manipulate background images as I often do. I find IrfanView (http://www.irfanview.com/) (for free and available in many languages) very convenient because of the very useful crop options (cutting selections) and for replacing parts of the image by other textures. The resulting quality is also much better than images saved from Paint.

If you attach your map to your post, we'll be able to study it.

I know (see my first post), that's why I like to see the map itself....
