Once I had it sorted to not nuke adjacent land, it worked excellently.

It'll not be a common tool for map makers, but it fills in good sized rivers just fine as well as the large bits of open water.

That is exactly what I am doing at this moment from the fill DRG performed on the Dinh Tuong map, by hand leveling the adjoining land river hexes, then block fill large land areas.

A great project, much anticipated enhancement, my thanks to the dev team.
