Post subject:  Making a Map

I have already made the main part, the map itself!

But, theres a problem. It won't show up on the map selection.

Code:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Canyon Land

AddScene = Scene
   PresetName = Canyon Land
   LocationOnPlanet = Vector
      X = 110
      Y = -64
   // Gravity acceleration, m/s^2
   GlobalAcceleration = Vector
      X = 0
      Y = 20

   // Terrain SceneLayer
   Terrain = SLTerrain
      PresetName = Canyon Land Terrain
      BitmapFile = ContentFile
         Path = Base.rte/Scenes/CanyonLandWater.bmp
      WrapX = 1
      WrapY = 0
      ScrollRatio = Vector
         X = 1.0
         Y = -1.0
      BackgroundTexture = ContentFile
         Path = Base.rte/Scenes/Textures/DirtDark.bmp
         
      /////////////////////////////////////////
      // Material frostings
      
      AddTerrainFrosting = TerrainFrosting
         TargetMaterial = Material
            CopyOf = Topsoil
         FrostingMaterial = Material
            CopyOf = Grass
         MinThickness = 5
         MaxThickness = 7
         InAirOnly = 1

      /////////////////////////////////////////
      // Terrain Debris which is scattered
      
      AddTerrainDebris = TerrainDebris
         CopyOf = Gold

      AddTerrainDebris = TerrainDebris
         CopyOf = Plants

      AddTerrainDebris = TerrainDebris
         CopyOf = Boulders
   
   // Background scene layer definitions
   AddBackgroundLayer = SceneLayer
      CopyOf = Near Layer B
   AddBackgroundLayer = SceneLayer
      CopyOf = Clouds Layer
   AddBackgroundLayer = SceneLayer
      CopyOf = Sky Layer


Mind fixing the code? I know I used the right colors depending on what I wanted where.

You have to change the PresetName, Canyon land is already a basic map, so your map doesn't overwrite it. [I believe DISCLAIMER: I don't make a lot of scenes]

It will be a lame excuse for water, as in, a material which falls apart as soon as you touch it.

Eh, I'll just see what it looks like.

EDIT: I changed it the present name to "Canyon Land Water", but it douesn't show up on the map select.

Yes, in fact, nonja lands water is just regular cc water.
