From what I know it can't be fixed - but I hope I'm wrong
Try checking your downloadedmaps folder (in config directory), map will be called ChillerDragores3_<hash>
and just look for latest version, maybe you won't lose this much work.
Anyway, try to do more copies of your maps in future (there is even an option now to save map copy), and ofc save more often...

The map in your attachment can't be fixed (only 0's).
Another option might be some saved copies in the undo chache, but depends if you have that feature enabled and I'm not sure if it even works.

If you make a automapped gores map, yeah. But look at the other Chillerdragores. It looks like it was some work and not just mapping a bad map in 5 min.

Chillerdragon I had that .. let's call it bug.. already too. When I had it and lost my map I got my backup and realised it existed of like 2 parts only. If your PC crashes often then you better make a backup regularly ... it's not a lot of work really. Just call it like ChillerDragons3[A,B,C,D....Z] and probs are gone forever

Also if you do different versions of your map you can easily reload a previous state if you mapped something new wich was a bad decission to map, or you can more easily try out different colors, mapres and so on.
