This is normal. Everything around a map is black. There are two ways to circumvent this:
- Broaden the border, so that the player is at least 8 fields away from the border on top and bottom of the screen as well as 6 fields to the sides. For example, place a few trees in front of the border of the map so that player can not get to close.
- Snap the edges of the map with the Editor in the Metadata of the map.
You should do this only with maps that do not connect to any other maps directly, as this will mess up the transition from one map to another. Though, in my opinion, snapping edges is the perfect way to avoid black borders for stand-alone maps.
