 ## Unfortunately it is not possible to export the world map while you have a fortress saved in that world. An easy workaround is to duplicate the [[Saved game folder|save file]] and [[abandon]] the fortress. After you have exported the world map, you can simply move the save file back into its folder, and your fort will be playable again.
