This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:
When using Find/Replace to locate certain objects, the map may shift from one z level to another. While shifting z levels the map will sometimes hang up and display the wrong z level.

When trying to reproduce this bug, Caluscorps was able to have Dream Maker crash after setting the z map size down to 1 while the map editor was displaying the wrong z level.

Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
Create a map with multiple z levels.
Use Find/Replace on anything until the z level changes.

Usually it happens on my first try.

Expected Results:
The z level should shift correctly.

Actual Results:
The minimap and main map editor become out of sync.

Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often? Yes.
On other computers? Yes.

When does the problem NOT occur?
When using the arrows to shift between z levels.

Did the problem NOT occur in any earlier versions?
It has been around for awhile, but I recently discovered it always seems to trigger when using find/replace.

Workarounds:
When using the arrows to shift between z levels.
