I've just spotted a tiny inconsistency between the legend for Singapore and the Singapore on the map. On the legend, the two tiny islands between Singapore and Riau are missing. It's nothing really, but maybe the two islands on the map could be removed, if anything should be done at all.

Impressive! I thought that no one would notice it :P

Nothing about those in Timor Leste?

The reason is that the drawing is not from the original outline but from a copy. The one with the original outline is too thick and look worse.
Living proof that everyone can be a brilliant great good decent cartographer.

I think that the islands that are so small that you can barely make out their colour are not needed, so should be removed. Others may have other opinions on this though.

Hoodlum already said that he wanted to keep every island on the map to maximize geographical accuracy. I don't share this opinion but I'm not going to enforce island deletion.

It's ok Psymon if you feel that some islands need to be deleted. I had thought of deleting some but I had gotten use to the critiques on accuracy of things, in reality, there are 1000's of islands not displaying, so whatever makes it work :)

Alter one of the red's to be less similar. And then I say it's ready for beta :P

Or don't alter it and RELEASE TEH KRAKEN!!

I have deleted the smallest and most disturbing islands and changed the Java color.

Is it my screen, or is the colour from Indonesia very similar to the color of the region bonus on the minimap?

You mean Indochina?

I don't know. I can distinguish it pretty good.

I think I know what Matty is saying, the Java on the mini map is a different colour (still red) to that on the main map (purple).

That may be true but I think he meant Indochina. THe color of the orange region is very similar to the color of the text on the mini map. I have no problem distinguishing the two on my monitor. The numbers are a lighter orange. But you might try desaturating the color of the numbers a bit.

You guys are not looking too hard at the map eh? I missed the outline shadow layer for the last update and nobody said a word :P

Changed orange to ~yellowish and updated minimap.

On capitals, I won't be having time for a few days if everything is fine, so guys give it a try! ;)
