System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.
   at XCom.XCTile.set_Tiles(XCTile[] value)
   .....

Added the console window
Now it will shown a message in the console similar to 'WARNING: In the MCD file U_EXT02-C, the tile entry 34 have an invalid alternative tile (# 49 of 41 tiles)'

Now checking "SpecialType" so far i found some bugs. and here is the current options:

    public enum SpecialType
    {
        Tile = 0,
        StartPoint,
        IonBeamAccel,
        DestroyObjective,
        MagneticNav,
        AlienCryo,
        AlienClon,
        AlienLearn,
        AlienImplant,
        Unknown9,
        AlienPlastics,
        ExamRoom,
        DeadTile,
        EndPoint,
        MustDestroy
    };

Yeah, default goes up to 14 "MustDestroy". Any higher value and the whole MCDs library (containing the MCD with the unsupported value) is not available anymore in MapView.

Maybe Warboy (or volutar, I don't know) can explain better the whole "Target_Type" -->  ruleset's "specialType" relationship. As far as I know it's just a value, and if the value is equal for both the item is linked to the MCD, so that each instance of the MCD present on the map means an instance of that specific item present in the battlescape (and eventually recoverable at the end of the mission).

(I don't know if this kind of info are useful to you or not. Probably not).

I've made addition to rmp format description and something in respective talk area of https://ufopaedia.org. I bet there is quite detailed info. I can't say more now since I'm at vacation in Hungary.

Latest Version is available. 

Added the console to mapview.
Improved how the errors are shown (now some are warnings that are shown in the console) [Invalid Alternate Tile, invalid Dead Tile]
Changed the way nodes connect in the "RmpView", now there are 3 options "Connect One way" "Connect Two ways" "Dont Connect", instead of autoconnect
Changed the text of "RmpView" to "Waypoint view"
Now the app wont crash or raise errors if the MCD contains a not defined "SpecialType" (higher than 14)
    ** (But they wont have a background, the MCD Viewer will show the number)
Added message when changing the map or closing the app and there are routes RMP not saved
Fixed some errors performing Copy or Cut in the Map Editor


(Next things that might be worked on in another time.)
   Changing the details of a RMP should raise the save message if necessary
   Improve the way floors are added   
   Issues with the palette

Thanks again for all the feedback.

I am just testing this with wine on Linux,
is there a copy of the source code anywhere, i would like to get a gtk build of.


Wow that's a total fail on wine. I guess the drawing code is really only for windows....
Not even the menues are working properly...

Using virtualbox and windows XP, having issues saving image of the map out. I get the "OOPS" message but no details.

Good, Ill review the SaveGif method once my computer stops acting like an Idiot (upgrading then degrading the windows 8.1 installation)

Thanks for the info

[TheBigSot]

Should be fixed now, let me know if this fixed the issue.

Hi there, I'm not sure how to perform test for your environment, but I may be able to help if you attach some screenshots or videos of the problems.

You can find the code in 'https://github.com/TheBigSot/OpenXCOM.Tools'

Since Code is in C#, i maybe will give it a try and compile it manually here on Linux.

I did this before with the stuff from pmporg, but this build was also failing on the drawing and also had the windows errors.
Maybe the code should be revisited. Do you use WPF (System.Windows.Forms and System.Drawing and so) for the menues?
