EDIT: Just fishing for info if you ever considered that this has to be done, not looking for "priority label"...
Shameless bump! :roll:

In case I was not clear in my first post, I'm talking about the land textures that, by the looks of it, were never finished properly (textures spilling over the rivers, over the coastlines..etc.).

Is there anything we can do to speed up his recovery? :D

Not sure for now... maybe when he finds a job. So if anyone needs an employee skilled in graphics art and rendering and 3D modelling, I have the right man for you :-)

Hex x:814, y:145 Reading should be named High Wycombe.

Hex x:1071, y:135 Bur Soudan (Port Sudan) should have a sea pier.

The Military Complex with a sea pier at x:1650, y:419 Manokwari should be in Dutch New Guinea, it was there only military base outside of the Netherlands after Indonesian independence.

Macau (China) should be a Portuguese colony or territory, was only delivered to China in the 90's.
Thank you.

Thank you.
Probably intentional as there is limited amount of regions that can be included. And it was pretty small and of low significance for the gameplay to take place of a larger or more important region. My guess only...

Thank you.
If you do a search for Macau the answer has been posted before. The decision was that Macau was too small.

The Columbia River should be river wide from its mouth to Portland/Vancouver, all 37 Casablanca CVE's were built at the Kaiser shipyard in Vancouver (pp 271 JFS WWII). Portland, WA is the 3rd busiest port on the US west coast and has even had super carriers visit it during the US fleet week in the past. Portland (x192,y166) should also have a sea pier, the co-ordinates for the Columbia River are: x188,y161; x189,y161; x190,y161; x191,y161; x192,y162; x193,y162; x193,y163; x192,y164; x192,y165; x193,y165. You also have the following hexes between Longview and Vancouver, WA; x193,y162 and x193,y163 named Grand Coulee.

Gutersloh (x865,y144), Solingen (x859,y147) and Iwakuni (x1620,y243) should have airfields and Beilefeld (x866,y144) and Solingen should have baracks. Gutersloh was the home of RAF No's 3,4,18 and 230 sqns; Solingen was home to RCAF No's 409, 421 and 439 sqns and Iwakuni RAF No 209 sqn from 1945 until after the Korean War. Beilefeld is the home of BAOR/I (Br) Corps and Solingen was also the home of the Br 2 ID in 1949.

The Land Fab in Panama has no barracks, and cannot produce troops. A barracks exists in the capital (Panama City). Recommend adding a barracks to the Land Fab.

The German city of Braunschweig is called 'Braunshweig' for some reason.

P.S.: Speaking of spelling mistakes: http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/900 ... 18FDB379A/ , the Jan 1 1957 news item should read "West Germany", not "West Germnay".

The following hexes are actually Canadian no US; x:199, y:146 and x:199, y:147 as defined by Kaiser Wilhelm I of Germany in 1872 ending the 13-yr long Pig War between the US and Britian-Canada.
