This isn't anything to do with coding, but I wasn't sure what this topic would go under. So I just put it in here.

When I try to import a bmp image from paint, it usually cuts some of the image out in the square. I don't know how big, or small the picture can be to fit into one icon. Is there anyway to find out?

BYOND icons are 32 x 32 (256 colors)

don't use the import function. in your code file put this:

area
large_rock
icon='big_rock.bmp'
density=1

compile this, then go to the map editor, find large_rock under area, and place it where you want it on the map.

you might need overlay imageless turfs with a density of one, to prevent mobs from walking through your area.
