hexkit_path_fix

Fix an HexKit map file after some hex have been moved

Tested on Windows and Linux.

hexkit_path_fix will update an HexKit map to work with the current tiles positions.

It can be used to fix a map before using it on another computer with a different tile organization.

Usage :

• Copy the executable in the HexKit folder (where your hexagon collections are stored).

• From a command window, run:

    REM On Windows
    hexkit_path_fix.exe HexKitPath  mapPath > newMap

    # On Linux
    ./hexkit_path_fix HexKitPath mapPath > newMap

For example:

    REM On Windows
    hexkit_path_fix.exe "C:\Hex Kit-win32-x64" Octarine.map > NewOctarine.map

    # On Linux
    hexkit_path_fix "~/RPG_Mapping/Hex Kit-linux-x64" Octarine.map > NewOctarine.map

Always check the new map with HexKit before erasing the old map.

Limitations:

• Map files include a copy of the generator used to build them. This is used to add new rows or columns. Single tiles and folder names used in generators are not currently converted.
