No problem.I get frustrated too, especially with my own maps, grin.

I am glad you like the maps!

 

Thanks for your kind words concerning my hand. I hope I can get back to map
creation this year.

Thanks! Sorry about the tone of my original message-it's been so darn
frustrating working out how to get the most out of this map and constantly
playing over the same part over and over. Hopefully my next restart will be
the last.

Allan, I completely understand and I hope and pray you regain full use of
your hand. I really do. Your maps are amazing. Thank you for making them. :)
