Map editor: Deleting entities with brushes.

Post by ficolas »

In the map editor, pressing X you can remove entities one by one, but even selecting a brush it isnt possible to remove more than one.
It would be useful to be able to remove entities in a bigger area.

I agree=) Actually right clicking the brush also removes the entities / resources / etc. depending on the layer. But it is fuzzy removal - like if you would place "empty spots" for that entity based on the brush settings. Useful for making the forest less dense fro instance. Anyway I think I will add the eraser tool for the next release - basically an erasing brush.
