Currently this map editor is outdated by several years and will cause a lot of mess if used with current map, the only release tag is even more severely outdated and while the "nightly" build exist it's extremely obscure and not exactly public(it was shared only on Discord for all I know) making people think they need to build it themselves only to find that this project lacks of any actual guide or documentation for building it.

Currently we have a much more updated map editor here: https://github.com/quyykk/plugin-editor which also appears to be preferred by current dev as well as being considered as the new standard since it can handle multiple map file (which is part of the reason for the recent map file splitting).

I suggest we either actually maintain it (which seems unlikely) or archive it and change all the links to Quyykk's editor and add some redirect message here in case someone ends up here somehow.

That editor is amazing, though it's still outdated. Its version is 0.9.15
