Is the final Version ready? I'll put it up tonight anyway.

I've been testing it for a few days, might as well put it out since I can't find any glaring errors. Here's the new mapfile (1.1): mapfileonly.zip

This will probably be the final Version, unless something really drastic is spotted. Knock on wood...

Updated the zip too.

Got the semester wrapped up, and I'm thinking of putting a new map into the works. It will probably be larger (around 250 provinces or even more) and a _bit_ less watery. I'm also toying with PvK's ideas about water regions.

Creating the map will be done similarly compared to the previous one, so that's about as pretty as it can get.

Now (again?

)would be a good time to chime in with comments, suggestions and/or feedback on the previous map.

Wish I had time for developing x-large maps.

Definitely looking forward to this next map !! The really large maps of 300+ provinces are rarely created. I believe the largest map available for download from Illwinter's website right now is the WorldMap of 339 provinces.

While I do love large maps, the problem with them is that, at least as of 2.08, the nation overview display would corrupt when an overly large number of provinces was listed.

Also, maps should be MORE watery! There's already not enough water for our water nations to play in, and Illwinter is rumored to be introducing a third water nation. We need MORE water, not less!
