Ahoy Pathfinders! With the new season, we have an updated Server Grid Editor (SGE) available for unofficial server owners. We wanted to ensure making a map was as easy as possible to all players, so we have added the ability to export and import server layouts. Players will be able to export/import grid layouts from season 10 or another personal layout they prefer. It should be noted that this feature and update is optional!  [b]To download the latest Server Grid Editor (SGE) click the the following link:[/b] [url=https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/cdn.atlasdedicated.com/ServerGridEditor_11-30-22.zip]SGE download[/url] [h1]Exporting Grids[/h1] [olist] [*] Open up an instance of the SGE and load a project that you want to take grid layouts from.
