An exact replica of Tucana's terrain, with estimated emitter strength (based on timing of creeper spread). Is there a way to get the story maps into the editor? I did it all by hand off of a screenshot.

In CW2 you could, but not in CW1, so the only way you could do it is the way you did (taking a screenshot, did you load it as background image?).

I took the map screenshot and opened it in paint. I lined it up directly in front of the editor and alt-tab'ed back and forth, slowly building an identical map in the editor. Then I timed between emitter intervals, and how long it took to overflow a certain point. I concluded that Tucana has 1 sec interval and 3 intensity.

Spoiler
The emitter in my map has 1 sec interval and 12 intensity.

It's very important that you choose the right side !! One side has a big advantage...  ;D

I did not choose the right side. I should have restarted, but just went with it.
