3. The map selection process will restart and you can define if what changes you want to make:

  1. Changing address or the location of the map center: This might cause some conflicts as some elements in your scenario are referencing the map origin for location and might shift along with the change
  2. Changing map size: Assuming the origin remains the same, this won't cause any issues for most of the cases as it will simply scale the map from the origin point. The only feature affected by this change is the Drawing Overlay as it will need to be rescaled.
  3. Switching topo/flat mode: This would require some elevation adjustments for the elements that are not projected or connected to the terrain like: Massings, Imported Models/Meshes and Point Resources.

1. Go to the Project page, click on the three dot menu for the scenario in question, and click Sync surroundings; OR

2. If 1 doesn't work, first delete all the Surrounding Massing, and then proceed with step 1.
