I just started today experimenting with the scenario editor, in view of eventually making my own scenarios.
Following the manual's advice, I want to start with a small scenario. However, the smallest I can get is 40x100 (small map button). I have played scenarios from the game which have a 30x30 map, which is the size I would like to start with. I read the map creation chapter and the FAQ as well but could not find any mention of it.
Could someone let me know how to make " minuscule" maps?

With Fred Chalanda's Wawmap utility you can make maps of any size you like under the largest of the monster maps.
You start with a standard map, that you clear completely. you then make your small map on it, save it, get out of SPWAW and open Wavmap.
Select the shp directory from the file menu by opening the shp directory and double clicking on any file in there, load your map and go to options/"inspection mode".
In the window that appears there are fields for size in the bottom right hand corner. Enter the size you want ( I think that the coordinates have to be both even) , press "retain", go back to the main wavmap screen and save your map.
If you do this with a blank map, you will have created a template for yourself that will allow you to produce many maps of that size without having to use Wavmap again.
