Tutorial and template code, to install an area with multiple links to the worldmap, via WeiDU.

Does this work with the new worldmap v6.3 or only with the original worldmap?

It should be compatible (or can be made compatible with little effort) with any usual wmp file. (You will need to extend it a bit though if you have a wmp file with more worldmap entries, because the current code assumes there is one worldmap entry and adds the area to that.)

Nonetheless, I took a very quick look at the TP2 of Yacomo's cool-sounding extended wmp. As far as I can see, it rebuilds the whole wmp with a fixed list of areas & their attributes, so areas not on its list will not be kept. Consequently, I guess any mod that adds an area on its own (e.g. by using my code) instead of having a Yacomo-Wmp-entry should be installed after Yacomo's wmp mod. (By the way, DELETE_BYTES ("%links_num%") 0xD8 shouldn't be something like DELETE_BYTES ("%links_offset%") 0xD8? I checked the file very quickly so I might have missed something obvious.)
