      Just click on the object and press the delete key on your keyboard, or locate it in the item list and press delete.

    Nice work on the tutorial. I haven’t put out a map since FS17 and was looking for a quick refresh on GE. This really hit the spot. Will there be additional tutorials? I’d really like to find something on using scripts to ease some of the repetitive tasks such as placing trees

    Great walkthrough, in no way was it tooo long. If you think that it gets too long break down the chapters (may not have been a UA-cam function back when you posted, apologies if not) and always remember people have the ability to jump and skip, even watch in faster speeds. Personally I'd rather you cover more info than skim something out of fear for length.
    May later move on to the rest of the videos, at the moment though it's a tough time to sell the wife on a Patreon subscription for something I just want to futz with (not intended to diminish your time and work, much less the value of it). Thanks for the hard work!

    Hi, do you have any tips for a machine that will run Giants editor? I can't find specs for it, and pc / laptop specs confuse the crud out of me anyway :/
    Seems minimum game specs are quite low? The minimum intel processor for FS22 is quite old?
    Would a laptop with integrated graphics run it?

      you hae to go into an xml file and changed the coord's for the item and match them to them map, the placed item in the editor will help you get the coords you need. I think its in the placeables.xml file.

    "whatever that error is"... its actually not an error. it is a dialog asking if you want to use Sticky Keys. it can be disabled in windows settings.

    How do you open your save game file though? I've followed your instructions, and it opens the default map as I had just started. It doesn't include any buildings or placements I've put into the game and saved.

    Why is it that every video ive tried finding nobody shows a REAL way to start a map (For Example) Blank Flat Map with just your Shop, Animal, Buy/Sell Triggers and the most important part HOW TO Setup the map to be 2km/4km/8km/16km as your Base Starting Point. Everyone Loads up AlpineMap or mapUS strip it down but its stripped down to 2km ONLY and nobody shows how to make it 4km/8km/16km.
