 === Why doesn't my world map update when I edit the terrain? ===
 There are three approaches depending on just how adventurous you want to be. From the least to the most adventurous:
-* Wait two days. You will need to restart your sim at the end of the two days to get the updates.
+* From the simulator console run generate map or simply restart your simulator
-* Edit the .xml file for the region. Change the value in the "lastmap_refresh" attribute to "0". You will need to restart the sim.
+* Edit MaptileRefresh parameter in [Map] section of OpenSimDefaults.ini
 * Not for the faint of heart! Edit the "WorldMapModule.cs" file and change the "LazySaveGeneratedMaptile" method to change the "RefreshSeconds" value to something less than two days. Be sure to read the comments and understand why things are the way they are.
