Anyone know how many maps will start to cause memory problems? As my campaign keeps going, the amount of maps get's a bit unwieldy, but no noticeable slowdown.
I've been wondering this too. At the end of one of my campaigns I'm assuming to have something like 50 - 150 maps/pages. The first problem is scrolling through them (because they can only be on one row the queue will be looooooooooooong) but will this cause some other problems as well?

You can archive maps that you don't need anymore. That makes them vanish from the horizontal list, and there will only be a "Archived Maps" button at the end. If you then click that button you get another list with all the archived maps, you can easily bring them back out into the open that way if you need it. I have no idea however if or when that slows the game down. I think it's only an issue if there are too many maps-images on the same map (but they're working on that issue).
Hmmm could I effectively create an entire (well labeled) game of archived maps. Then have them come into the list "as I need them" ? I sometimes worry if I am logged onto the map with the players flag on the map they haven't seen, seen by a player who happens to be online at the same time as me... sometimes the name above the macro bar doesn't show. So not always sure who sees what I see?
You can edit and mess around with maps without moving the player tab there. And yes, you can pull those archived maps out of the archive any time you need them. It doesn't really store them anywhere differently, it just keeps them hidden from the main list, as far as I understand it.
