The new map is still under development. It is not meant to be played on. The new map is meant to be first released in the main DoC mod, in the way I intend to. This is a community project that I invested a lot of time and effort into to aggregate, curate, and research. Do not create modmods using this map before it is official released as part of the mod's develop branch.
You can make suggestions for the map itself. To repeat, this includes the shape of landmasses, terrain/feature types, resource placement, river courses etc.
This is part of Phase I of developing the new map, see here for a general overview.
Please make your suggestions in the following way:
- include a screenshot of the affected area (you can zoom out as far as you can until the cloud cover appears)
- annotate all your changes (with a tool of your liking, you can use the ingame landmarks with text, or use an image editor, the important part is that it is comprehensive)
- if resources are affected, please also enable Ctrl + R
- use your judgment on what is comprehensible to someone who doesn't know what you did, it should also not be required for me to know exactly what the map looked like before your changes
- I encourage you to also include a text description of your changes and the reasoning behind it. The more you support your reasoning the higher the chances I will include your changes.
You can also make a pull request that includes your changes, but you still need to frame your suggestions as described above. That's because it is impossible for me to actually understand your changes just from the diff of the scenario file. If you do not make a pull request (which is in no way required) I will integrate the changes myself over time.
