Dear Skunk,

You have published a new map today called: "Earth 1914". I`m not going to talk about this map except for the connections. Your map has quite a big amount of missing territories. Here they are:
Tibetian Republic <-> Russia
Tibetian Republic <-> British India
Russia <-> Ottoman Empire
Germany <-> France
Egypt <-> French West Africa
British India <-> Italian Somaliland
South-West Africa <-> Rhodesia
Brazil <-> Argentinia
Honduras <-> Guatenala (<- should be Guatemala??)

You should also have a look at these,cause I`m not sure if they should be connected:
British India <-> French Indochina
British Honduras <-> Honduras

That is a lot, I think, for a finished map.

Would you please check this every time before you publish a map. With big maps it is not a real problem if there is one connection not correct, but for a map this size, this is way to much. You can also check these by playing some test games before publishing the map. I haven`t heared you testing this map.

I`m just trying to help you and make your maps better so don`t worry :)
I`ll have a look at some of you other maps and post them here so you can correct them.

@ others. Please post other connection problems of Skunks map here if not done yet, but please do not spam or anything. I`m just helping Skunk.

Cheers, Min34

About the map: "Africa: 1914"

Connection missing:
Union of South Africa <-> Rhodesia

Territories of which I`m not sure if they should be connected:
Sudan <-> British East Africa
Uganda <-> Ethiopia
Algeria <-> Spanish Morocco

try putting this in the map making forum :)

Dear Min34: I do check all my maps for missing conections but it does seem quite odd that you have identified this many, maybe this is a sign that i shoudnt make my maps just before i go to bad.

I have fixed the mssing links that where not present i both maps and updated version will be published within the next 24 hours.

Thanks for identifieing these problems.

As for the africa map none of the suggested are mssing links, there not supposed to be connected as there is no joining edge.

Thanks again - Skunk940

Hi Skunk,

It`s no problem, I like to help out with these kind of things :)

I`ve had a look at some more maps:

Tripod: Everything is correct

East UK Wind Farms: Everything is correct

Christmas 2011:
Tree (top)<-> Tree (medium)

Silly Isle: Everything is correct

North Norfolk:
A148 (Kettlestonereach bonus) <-> A148 (ThornageReach Bonus)
Beeston Regis <-> Sheringham (<- These are connected, it seems they shouldn`t be)
A149 <-> Sheringham (<- looks like you accidently drew the line to Beeston Regis)
Runton <-> West Runton (runton Reach)
The street <-> B1354 (KettlestoneReach)
Thornage Road <-> HunWorth (ThornageReach)
A148 <-> Little Thornage (<- not sure about this one, ThornageReach Bonus)

That`s all I`m going to do for now. I`ve also said which maps do not have any connection problems, but that is also for me, so I know what maps i`ve already checked.

Couldnt find the missing link in the Christmas 2011 map.

Fixed the links that were missing on North Norfolk map but half the ones you listed where either the same thing or did already exsist.

Missing link in Christmas 2011:
Tree (part of TopTree bonus) <-> Tree (part of MeduimTree bonus.)
There is only one Tree territory of the "MeduimTree" bonus that should connect to the "Toptree bonus", but it doesn`t.

And you might want to change "MeduimTree" into "MediumTree"

Brutally honest: I don't see how any of your maps could ever be played in an 'rp' setting or a strategic setting.

Arguably the least aesthetically pleasing maps in all of Warlight. Despite repeated recommendations to ensure bonus borders abut instead of overlap he has yet to do so in any of his maps. Guess it's just too much effort to ask of him.

+1

Found and fixed Min.

Also richard you are the first peron to say that. This is excacly my point.

Any way Richard this is a inproving thing, just compare my earth 1914 map to one of my older ones.

Richard is the first to say so in those words everyone had either said so in different words or didn't want to hurt your feelings however i agree with richard your maps have many flaws and not really taken care of well,rushed and full of over sized bonus links, over sized bulbs,terrible unclear borders,a lot of missing connection.

Most certainly not the first time it's been said... I know for a fact that I have said it to you on multiple occasions and I'm sure I can't be alone in that.

I think we all agree on that.

That`s why I started this thread, to help improve some of his old maps.
