Are you a modpack developer? Do you include a map in your modpack? Does this map sometimes need to be re installed by the user?

Version 2, 3, 4 information:

A lot has changed in the way version 2 works, now you have as many different instances of the same map! 

As a user to make a new instance click the "Create from template" button on the world list and select the world you want and then give it a name!

As a mod pack dev:

As a mod pack dev, you will want to copy the template maps into the maps folder. Then in that maps folder create an info.json file. This should look like:

{
"author" : "Your Name",
"thumbnail" : "thumbnail.png"
}
The thumbnail tag should point to a square logo/screenshot of you map so the user can easily see what the map is like. In testing this was a 128x128 size image. As long as it is a square image you should be good.
Using Structure Files (Version 4 and up):
As of version 4 structure nbt files generated using the vanilla structure blocks can be used. To use this function you first must enable the void world world type (doesnt apply to pre-existing worlds) in the config file.
You will need to create a new folder in the maps directory that contains the structure file. Call this file "structure.nbt". When you go to create a template it will create a default "info.json" that you can change the values of.

Using Sub Categories (4.2 and up): 

 Version 4.2 adds a new feature that allows for sub categories of maps. This can be done by creating a folder with the category name, and then within that creating a variations.json file.

{
  "author": "Test",
  "thumbnail": "icon.png",
  "description": "No Description set"
}

 This file is basically the same as a normal map. Within that folder you can place the maps in the same way as before. You can have Categories within Categories.
