Freshwater - Mapmaking

[Edi]

This info has been lying around in various threads that deal with map making, magic sites and so forth, but it is not concentrated in any one place. The part about the coastal flag has never been mentioned before, to my knowledge, but its existence is simply a process of deduction, because there must be a mechanism to differentiate between coastal and noncoastal provinces for event purposes, and especially since the magic site source code defines those three sites as only being available in coastal provinces.

I do think there would be some call for a mapmaking FAQ document (and a modding one as well). I could produce a mapmaking FAQ as long as somebody provides me with the most relevant questions. Can't personally think of so many of them, because I learned through trial and error with the Faerun map and a lot of the info can be found in the mapedit.pdf.

I've not done a single mod myself, apart from a very rudimentary one for Unit DB and Weapon DB test purposes (finding out hidden costs of units and weapon statistics), but I've read the document and can answer several basic questions without trouble. So I would not be the ideal person for doing a mod FAQ, but I could produce one if given the questions.
