Unit Placement Help!

Before asking, make sure to search! Press the :magnifying_glass_tilted_left: in the upper right to search.

  • Hacking method: FEbuilder
  • Base Game: FE7
  • Steps to reproduce: Restart the map, select view map and then select formation.

I’m not new to this as I’ve been working on my personal version of FE7 for around 5 years, but for whatever reason I can’t seem to get this behavior correct. Whenever I edit a map the starting position in the battle preparations places the units where they previously were but updates the swap tiles correctly. Any idea what I’m doing wrong? I’ve spent hours trying to fix this and, in the past, simply haven’t implemented the map changes that I had planned. Any help is much appreciated!

did you save in battle preps before changing the deployment and then reenter the map? if it still places them in the wrong place on a fresh save then idk but that can cause this to happen

I did. I still press, “restart chapter” and it does the entire beginning chapter cutscene, but if having an earlier save fixes the issue then it isn’t really an issue. That would be wonderful. I’ve got edits of two other maps where I have the same issue and I just haven’t implemented them.

yeah i mean a fresh save as in from before saving in battle preps. if you save in battle preps itll save the positions even if you change deployment. try a new file and skip to the maps with changed deployment with the febuilder debug feature and see if it works
