My first impression:

I did the following with the map tweaker utility while creating the Killer - Skyfish map:

- I created a map in the PTW editor
- Tried to open the bix in the map tweaker utility but got a very clear error message
- Executed the action as described in that error message
- Opened the bix in the map tweaker utility
- Selected a number of tiles
- Copied the tiles them somewhere else on the map
- Saved this file

I like the presentation of the map very much. It made the only action that I did very easy It was also very easy to perform the copy/paste action.

I had to get used to the fact that the screen wouldn't scroll with the mouse, but when using the arrow keys on the keybord it all worked out perfectly well!

One thing I noticed though: there appears to be a problem with the starting location copy/paste. I copied one and it was clearly shown in the scenario editors of Conquests. However, I could NOT delete the starting location (the editor crashed!!) and it also wasn't noticed while setting up the game (in Conquests). It offered me a different starting location all the time, a couple of tiles from where it was supposed to be.
