I have just started using this editor and I ahve ended up corrupting a number of maps due to the unit count error. Says the unit count it off or something and hence after saving it i cant reopen the map... is there a way to check this or prevent this before saving?

huh? unit count error? never heard of that
If you are using scmdraft 2 email the corrupted maps and uncorrupted versions of the maps to suicidal_insanity@stormcoast-fortress.net

What it says when i try to save is "Unit Count Mismatch, Possiable Corruption" but basically it IS corrupted and i can enver reopen the map. It typically happens when i place a building over another building.. or even over laying it a little then end up deleting 1.

ok, fixing this, I ought to have update online in 10 minutes. Probably is undo / redo not changing unit count. stupid bug on my part 
If you want I'll decorrupt the corrupted maps that you have.
EDIT: got it uploaded...

well make sure the bug is gone as a favor for me will ya?
and you dont need to do save as, scmdraft should make backup of the last 20 times saved.
yoshi: umm, no? I dont touch VB, waaay too slow and you cant do all the nice fancy tricks in it I need. scmdraft 2 is pure win32 c++.

Aight ill check it out once i get home from work, but as for it backing up, either im retarded and cant find it or it wasnt backing up. Because i tried reloading the map and it was completely corrupted.

When placing sprites this happens, when placing doodads the doors are fine, just raised a bit too high.
Once I add iscript animation to sprites they should be displayed flipped accordingly.
