OTClient Any in-game map editor?

[maxumic]

Is there any in-game map editor for OT Client?

When hiring mappers it would be useful if they could log on and edit the maps directly in-game. Not just because it's live/real-time, but also because you wouldn't have to give them any proprietary server files (e.g. world.otbm)

It would also be useful to have a visual map diff feature, similar to git diff, to review what the mapper has done before accepting/rejecting the changes.

This would be very useful.

Nowadays the maximum that we have is to convert your map into json and text-compare between versions. Then you would need to read by yourself and identify the changes. But it is definitely not much productive, I would use it just to debug some map changes between versions.

To build some tool like this, I think the way would be to do the last step that I mentioned, and given a json file, generate an image from it and compare using pixelmatch or looks-same tool.

If you have a global map, I think the only way to do it is to share with the mapper a free version of your map and ask to edit this file. Then you copy-and-paste the changes into your official map
