South America

[quote=Matty]Some remarks from me: - Overall I like this map a lot. - It looks like a part of the Argentina region is not connected to the rest - is this on purpose? It makes holding one of those regions but not the other (Chile) quite hard gameplay wise. Probably this is because of realism, I don't know SA very well, sorry. I'm fine with whatever you choose, but it is a point to think about either way. - I feel the red port anchors are a bit too pixelly? Around their shadow/glow? - I don't like how the square border around the minimap feels. It feels unnecessary to the right, and it feels even weirder on the left/bottom. - Maybe opsition the passable/impassable legend elsewhere and remove the borders? - This might be solved by removing the borders around the minimap, but currently the minimap borders and the island borders look the same, even though the minimap is not playable, whereas the islands are. This would confuse me a bit if I was a new player. - I like the style of the map title, but it looks a bit pixxely too? Not sure if that's the right description really, it's not actually really pixellated, but ... it feels off somehow? - Overall the colour palette of the map is quite good, I like it. It all fits together and blends into one another quite well, without being too much of a difference. The outliers here are the very bright yellow region in the top, and the red region in the left. Maybe play a bit with these colours?[/quote] I'm glad to see interest from many on this map! :) @@Matty: Yes, a small part of Argentina is disconnected from the mainland (on purpose) and it reflects reality. We are discussing the subject a lil bit in a test game I'm in (there are 2 running games atm and 1 waiting for players). I see Argentina not much as a bonus region, but more like a transit or troop-deposit area; we can add one sea-route connection or even not, I'm open to both options. As it is now it's an interesting dead-end: there are 2 of them, the other one being Uruguay territory, almost surrounded by the river. I'm the guy who colored the black ports in red to make them more visible, I did it badly & quickly just for the purpose of testing the map, without caring about any pixelation. Proper graphic changes should be made by @@SethHrab which is the author of the map, and the guy who holds the file. He's a bit inactive atm, let's hope he can come back soon! Meanwhile collecting feedback and thoughts is worth. P.S. Someone mentioned (and I agree with) that the border between Guiana and Santarem is very short and hard to be seen, it's almost like a 4-corner border.
