Map Adjustability

I was curious if it would be possible to make it so that map layering could be adjustable. While I understand the current map-system is already very complex and I wouldn't want to over complicate things, I do think it would be nice to adjust and rename the base layer on the maps. Many of my maps are of buildings and I would like to have the map start on the ground floor and be selectable to go to upper floors and lower floors. I would also like to be able to rename "Base" to something like "Ground Floor" or something. It is very irritating that "Base" is always "Base.

Improvement

I understand this is a quality of life improvement and is not a huge issue, and I don't want to be a bother. I just think it'd be nice to rearrange the layers so we can make them flow better.

The Team's Response

Thanks for the suggestion! The next update to the maps will include a new and easier way to manage layers, and it will cover what you suggested.

A better native mapmaker would make campaign planning much easier. Hopefully this is the first step towards a fully integrated mapmaking software

Great feature suggestion. Being able to place layers above and below the “base” layer would be very helpful for my map needs.

It might also make updates easier and help with clarity for viewers?
