I made a little program for making map outlines for Eclipse!

> While creating dozens of maps for your Eclipse game, you may find them hard to maintain. Especially if you have a massive game world under construction. This program is here to help you keep track of where each map connects to one another and where a specific map is in general.
>
> To choose which direction(s) you can move into another map from, left click on one of these squares.

> The blue lines represent where you can move out of the map.
>
> To keep track of which map file number the map belongs to and what you named it in-game, right click on a square.
>
> Press the 'N' Key to start a new outline.
> Press the 'S' Key to save an outline.
> Press the 'O' Key to open an outline.
> Press 'F9' to take a screen shot of your outline.
>
> If you want more squares in your grid then you will have to have multiple projects.
> For example - I have a MapOutline project for every realm and area in my game.
> Dividing your game into areas like that can make your outlines easier to manage.
>
> One last thing - If you get any error messages, just press ignore.
