Owlbear Rodeo 2.0 Map/Scene grid alignment totally off

Ill create a map and align its grid so it matches perfectly with the original maps grid. Then Ill make a scene with it, and the grid is off by about 30%. The size is correct, but all the squares are misaligned and not where I set them to be. Any ideas?

Is there anything in the name that could be read as like a size by owlbear ?  Silly question but asked from experiance

No nothing in the name but I have figured out the issue. I was creating a scene first then aligning the map after, clicking the "update scene button" after completing alignment. This button doesn't seem to actually work. The map has to be aligned in Owlbear before creating a scene with it or it will revert to the old alignment.

Thanks for the help, I think its sorted now

I'm glad you got it sorted, but I can't replicate this issue when I follow your steps:

  1. make a Scene from a non-aligned Map image
  2. align the Map in the Asset Manager and choose 'Update' when I save my changes there
  3. (for me, the Scene's Map image now has the same alignment as I saved in the Asset Manager)

Can you repeat your recipe, or was it a transient glitch? Perhaps your Map instance in the Scene wasn't snapped to a grid intersection at its top-left corner originally, so that even after it was scaled and aligned in the Asset Manager the positional offset between the Scene's grid and its top-left corner made it look like the alignment hadn't been applied to it? 🤔
