The rivers themselves are not navigatable, correct? That is, I cannot travel between bodies of water connected by a river if I am a water nation / water traveller?

That's correct, they are non-navigable. I know it's a little weird -- especially since on this map water nations can't cross rivers just like land-based nations -- but I was more comfortable with it that way. I love Targa's maps and the way he uses rivers, but my bias is against the water nations -- they're too scary to have popping up unexpectedly in one's back yard!

PS. Please let me know if this was intentional, but I think there are a few tiny neighboring errors:

- 151 and 128 are neighbors
- 101 and 117 are neighbors

hope that is maybe helpful?

EDIT: I'm a computer moron, never tried this before, but I opened up the "map" file with word pad (hope that is right?!). Anyhow, I took out those two "neighbors" commands by just deleting the text, and I tested it and I dont think I broke anything. I suppose that was easy enough to do that I shouldn't bother sending the file to someone??
Thanks once again for your excellent job, will try it out now with a water nation!

Thanks for the error-check, thinktank. I caught those mistakes and they are corrected in the updated .map file, which I think Kristoffer has uploaded to the Illwinter site at this point. What you did with notepad should work fine, but you might want to download the new .map file just in case (especially if you plan to play any pbem games on it).

And please keep me informed of any other problems you come across!
