Known Issues

Note that if you edit/compress the saved image, the encoded data will get corrupted. If you're sharing a map, make sure to use an image host that doesn't compress the image.

The UI isn't really optimal for mobile, but at least it works.

The UI will be cut off if you hold your phone in landscape mode.

FAQ

The browser crashes every time I open it!

The autosave file might be corrupted. Open the browser console (hit F12) and run this command editor.clearAutosave() to remove your autosave file.

Development

Once I saw that you could customize your island in the AC direct, I was inspired to make a tool that lets you make your own island. Several dozen hours of work later, I have this! This is an alpha build, so some things may be wonky, and the maps data may become incompatible with future versions.
