Hi All,

Here is a saved txt file from my public domain Digital Terrain Model Island Maker app 2.6.alpha. It produces ascii text islands suitable for importing into text based adventure games.

Island map is generated starting with a "*" and ending with a "@". All points in between go in the sequence A..Z..1..9 and repeat. This is simply to show the sequence in which the points were generated.

I found my older Lazarus code and used it. The problems arose when I saved my unit1.pas and unit1.lfm as a new file name. Lazarus produces the strange error messages.

I still have 2.5-alpha with the new file names if anyone is interested.
