I can't really do much about that but it's a quick download that won't break your save file.
I absolutely love the world map. I need to start working on learning lua so I can figure out how to do all these effects. I'm assuming mapSprites.lua handles most of it, but I still can't figure out how all the lua code translates into all of the little details on the map.
Also map boundaries! Finally we can have one-screen maps without always having the camera centered on Mario!

Yeah all of Nintendo of Japan's levels are all Kaizo! Good thing Nintendo of America always patches them!
Also I don't know if I said this already, but this episode is phenomenal - the world map is beautiful and most of the levels seem to be pretty good.
veggie pile tho

This is an edit directly from this contest episode's code. (all tiles being multiple tiles at once.)

I actually built the entire map in the editor first and then sliced it up and added detail/colour in paint.net. The entire city world was drawn there in one piece. Here's a screenshot of the world map as seen in the editor (before i placed scenery tiles):
The dotted path lines you see are removed when the world map is loaded and are placed so that you can always access any level.
The map actually has a perspective error which I missed in editing. Can you spot it? In-game it's covered by scenery tiles.
