North America 2.0 [Quenched]

[DublinDoogey]

when are we going to be able to play this map
i cant wait

yeah, sorry about the wait, i can't stand it either. school and track are taking up huge amounts of time right now, it's standardized testing season too, that doesn't help.

If someone wanted to get started on the xml, that could help, it's what's holding me back from trying out the numbers right now, even if they just did a few countries. (i know it isn't too difficult, it's just the time factor)

[Scorba]

I've got sod all to do so I'm making a start on this xml thingy.

[Scorba]

That was absolutely mind numbing. It is a testament to the quality of your map that I could be arsed to do it.

I'm not sure about the width/height numbers at the top, they're from the Africa map so you'll have to check those. The only other thing which needs to be done is entering the country coordinates, which I haven't got a clue about.

Edit - It looks like the spacing at the start of each line might not have come out correctly on the forum. If it's a problem pm me with your email address and I will send the notepad file. There were also a couple of cases where I wasn't sure if countries bordered each other - Florida/Louisiana & Dakota/Missouri, these will have to be checked.

You should put a fence up on the Mexico US border with tunnels and secret routes as the only paths between the 2 countries.
