Current questions and answers regarding the map editor.

I would copy the map-tag from another map and then embed it into this map. Then, you can open this file with Notepad, and it will contain text similar to this:

AdvMapDescTag
	AdvMapDesc href="map.xdb#xpointer(/AdvMapDesc)"/>
	NameFileRef href="name.txt"/>
	DescriptionFileRef href="description.txt"/>
	TileX>256
	TileY>256
	MapGoal href="MapGoalText.txt"/>
	CustomMapGoal>false
	teams>
		Item>1
		Item>1
		Item>1
	/teams>
	thumbnailImages/>
	HasUnderground>true
	RandomMap>false
	CustomGameMap>false
	Version>3
/AdvMapDescTag

Each line also starts with the "<" character. It's not difficult to figure out what's what. You just need to change all the settings to match your map. Is there an easier way?

There isn't such a function, but it's not difficult to create one.

local enable_hero_ai = EnableHeroAI
local disabled = {}
function EnableHeroAI(hero, enable)
  %enable_hero_ai(hero, enable)
  %disabled[hero] = not enable
end

function IsHeroEnabled(hero)
  return not %disabled[hero]
end

and if the AI for a hero is already disabled, and I "disable" it again by calling the EnableHeroAI function, will that cause an error?
