I deleted Newcity

[Sankey84 Gaming]

Hey, So I have been playing around with the Map Editor and I accidentally saved over new city. Anyone know how I can get it back while I have enjoyed spending 20 hours building my current map it is far from video recording ready (too many open spaces, too many random empty water death tiles ect)

Just my thoughts on what you could do to get the original NewCity.txt file back in place.
This involves backing up your edited NewCity level, uninstall/reinstall Maniac, and possibly backing up your in-game status too.

Read through this first to see if it makes sense.

On my system, I see that the editor saves the levels here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Maniac\Levels

The levels are saved as .txt files.

Take a look and see if the NewCity.txt file in that Levels folder is date stamped when you saved it. If it is, you could rename it to something like "Sankey84.txt". Then copy that text file to your desktop. To get the original NewCity.txt file back, you might need to uninstall/re-install Maniac. Then copy the Sankey84.txt file back into the Levels folder.

I think your in-game status is saved in here:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\Transhuman Design\Maniac

I'm not sure if uninstalling will remove your game status as well, so you might want to back up that folder too and put it back in place after the re-install.

After you re-install Maniac, copy the Sankey84.txt file from your desktop and put it in the Levels folder.
When you go into editor, click "Load" and enter "Sankey84" to have it load the "Sankey84.txt" level file.

Thank you, I will give it a try
