Map Editor Update 20260913
* When selecting the "upload map to Workshop" option, map information (title, description, and markers) is now downloaded from Steam prior to editing, preventing data overwriting (an issue that was previously occurring). * Bug fix: Map information in English was being overwritten when uploading maps to the Workshop; this issue has been resolved. IMPORTANT: For maps created in the Workshop prior to this update, creators must review the Title and Description in English. This can be done via the Editor or directly through the Steam user interface.Read full article on Community Announcements (avrubel1975)Patch NotesOfficial
