Hi

Does anyone have an easy way to count the number of elements in the mapp , or i should count them one by one

idk if map editor have it.

but you can write simple lua script to do it:

  
elems = getElementsByType("object", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource())) 
outputChatBox("Objects count: "..#elems) 
  

save it, add to meta.xml (to your map resource!), start resource
