Is Map Recovery Possible?
I made backups of the map files (xml, jpg, lvl) and confidently deleted the original (because some bug tripled it in the menu screen and I thought I should delete those other two). But now when I copy paste the backups, they won't show in-game. I tried with and without Steam Cloud, reinstalling, verifying game files, and nothing changes. Does anybody know what to do?

I've seen some weird stuff happening with this. I placed some .lvl files in my folder. At first they didn't show up, but after some time they just did. I have still now clue why. So as of now you can try that. Maybe you'll get lucky in some time and they show up :)

So my best course of action (besides recreating the map) would be to launch the game untill it recognises it?

Well, I hope the devs will see this post (they probably will) and then add it to the list of things they want to fix (actually a related problem is on their list, but it will be fixed later). But that might take some time, so you could use my trick and maybe it fixes it for you before that :)

Thank you kindly! So you placed some .lvl files in your folder? I placed mine in the /region/worlds/ folder where the other stuff is, should I (try to) put them into other folders as well?

that's exactly where i put them. Just with the other files.

We will implement a feature that allows you to import .png map files for those who want to trade maps with friends manually without workshop. This feature is going to be added because there are a lot of people who used the old editor and want to convert their maps to workshop.

Ah Great because i also have map data stuck outside of the game, I still have the xml png and lvl files but following the instructions doesn't seem to work. Great Job AndyN! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=153597531#-1

I'm wondering if something has changed in Monaco or that my instructions are wrong. But the .png feature is still something that would make it more or less obsolete :)

I talked to Andy today about this. I think we put PNG recovery on the back burner because the demand for it is relatively low compared to the other issues like crashes etc.
