Map Export?
Is it possible to export a map of the save? Perhaps similar to survival games using the1killer's mod? (I did try several attempts to use that mod with no luck.)

That's not really the full answer though.. :)

I got curious because of the question and spent a few minutes tinkering to get it to work.

First of all, disclaimer: as with the regular github post, make backups. I have no clue if it destroys anything in the mod!

So, follow the instructions on the github (don't forget to read the current workaround!), but change 2 things:

- Copy line 132-160 from the workaround terrain_overworld.lua:
NOT to:
steamapps\common\Scrap Mechanic\Survival\Scripts\terrain\terrain_overworld.lua
but instead copy to:
steamapps\workshop\content\387990\3113900342\Scripts\terrain

Similarly copy tile_database.lua NOT to the regular location but instead to:

steamapps\workshop\content\387990\3113900342\Scripts\terrain\overworld\tile_database.lua

Now, keep in mind the mod authors have obviously made a bunch of custom tiles, they won't show up in the map tool. However, you can infer based on surroundings which cluster of missing tiles is which.

In Addition to that, Bill's House shows as Workshop on the Map, so you can orient yourself :-)

I was able to get a map with your instructions. Thank you!
