- Robust technical design, highly optimized for multiplayer
- Determine drawing visibility by choosing between faction, global and private mode

Usage:
- To enter drawing mode, start and keep holding Shift (right D-Pad)
- Briefly left click (A button) onto the map to start your drawing
- Move your cursor and left click again to draw a line segment
- Keep drawing segments until your drawing is complete
- You can undo previous segments by pressing middle mouse button
- When you are done, release Shift to finish the drawing
- To see author and creation time, press middle mouse button while hovering over a drawing
- Similarily, press the delete key to remove a drawing

Tool settings are adjusted in a GUI accessible through the maps existing radial menu.
Note that this radial menu is only available while controlling a character (limitation of the base game), however there are also chat commands (/draw-help) as a fallback input method.

The mod also includes a document readable in the Script Editor (TILW_MapDrawingDocs.c) that explains technical design and several key optimizations, so that interested modders can easily understand and learn from it.

This mod version was uploaded as an entry to Make Arma Not War 2025.
For other purposes, please use the main version of the mod instead, as this one cannot be updated beyond the submission deadline.
