Topic: Hm. Ideal world-building programs or applications for planning game area maps?

[Twisted Crow]

What I've been trying to look for has been something like one would normally use to build flow charts. In my case, I've been trying to cleanly organize a world of various areas as I build that world. Something like paint has been too rigid (as it's a pain to erase and redraw box nodes and paths that lead to each given node (representing the 'area' maps that are connecting with one another).

I haven't been able to find much on google, due to what I aim to use such a program for. Would anyone else know of something like this?

Not sure if it's exactly what you'd be looking for, but something like Prezi - https://prezi.com/ - is great for building up flow diagrams and such. You can make them interactive as well, if that's something you'd want.

You might also look into UML modelling e.g. https://www.modelio.org/downloads/download-modelio.html

It's not free mind you but i got it from Humble Bundle over a year ago.

Sketchbook. They released it free a few years ago and it's a pretty good little software that gives you a ton of painting options and layering tools.

Sadly, Sketchbook is no longer free. Autodesk sold it to another company and it's now $19.99. Still cheap for a handy little program, though it no longer contains the Copic marker tools.
