im still not done modifying the giga map for my next instalment of Exstended original. i noticed that tasmania island in australia is 14 tiles more south then it started off when i downloaded giga map but antartica has not been exstended this far south. if i can exstend it a few more only a few scatered peices of antartica would then be located on the map. only about 1,000 temporary people are loacated on antartica. so thats not even enough to be a starting city of 10,000 people antartica is not relevent to world civilization from this perspective of population. so i concluded that its still possible to try convert it more towards duck flanders nice world. getting rid of antartica is step one step two ill try to push a few tiles of the northern hempispere off map. if i get rid of all of antartica then iv calculated that each tile of the map would be about 5,000 squre miles but thats just a guess the map will be distorted when it comes to certain places but this cant be helped viewing the map in the map box while playing the game small distortions wont be noticed. i think my goal of making it into duck flanders has been very sucsesful so far.
game wont be in 2039 it will be in 2045 AD thats when development on the intersteller space ships should begin

keep in mind i already added a tile of land in the southern australia region along new south wales coast. but after my research just now i discovered that the northern portions of australia do not have enough land so i will go ahead with adding a tile of land along queenslands coast and see how that changes things. as i said before there were many distortions on the map. but over all they dont get noticed it still looks very realistic but i am trying to make a really good map that is like duck flanders nice world so i have to continue working at it. in a week i board a airplane and im bound for wisconsin on a vacation ill be gone 2 weeks so i wont be able to continue to tinker with the map. my next chapter in exstended original is called one giant leap. the obama administration of the USA has mandated that a faster space technoligy be developed and its called hyper fusion which dubbles speed of ships the break though comes in the year 2022 When docter Soguk Birlesme invents viable hyperfusion.
