Sorry to come in late, but here's how i would attempt to tackle this situation. Bring strong defensive units to the enemy land. As many as you can. Then try to occupy cells around cities in order to reduce his production level. This way, he will be forced to disband units as he can no longer support...

That doesn't help. This image contains obvious errors, like grassland in antarctica, missing tile types, etc.

Whether a tile displays elevation vs. land cover does not make it "wrong". It is either/or, not both. To mix elevation and land cover together will necessarily mean that some tiles will display elevation (such as hill or mountain) while others display land cover (such as forest or jungle....

Once I have selected a land cover set, I'll probably expand the value range of mountains and hills again, then replace a percentage of each of them with land cover so that mountains and hills will be more widely spread, but potentially not more numerous. The Pyrenees will reappear then. Greenland a...

Yes, the glacier peaks at about 3,200 meters / 10,000 feet. The highest land (without the ice) is currently at about 2,800 meters but it might actually be higher if the glacier wasn't depressing the land. Then this will become a huge mountain, contradicting all previous civ maps which showed it as ...

Question : has Greenland very high altitude ?
I keep finding incredibly high land elevation values !
It starts to become mountain long before all normal features appear !
(f.e. at 80/255 most of European mountains are reduced to next to nothing but Greenland has most of its bulk in mountain hue)

^ Bitmap (2 color black and white) Image mask showing Arctic sea ice as white, black is not ice (change black to transparent for overlay.) This is ok. I have to see how it goes on top of current map. All 360 degrees of longitude are already displayed in a Freeciv world map without WrapY . What addi...

There is no invisible wall in Freeciv with WrapY disabled either - the entire surface of the planet is displayed in the map's columns and rows of tiles. Yes of course there is. As long as you cannot move in some direction, there has to be some kind of obstacle preventing it. Every possible route is...

The point of the top of the map being north is that to move northward, travel is in the direction of the top of the map. With WrapY not enabled, and the north pole at the top of the map, then it would be impossible to continue traveling north from the north pole! -- just like on Earth! If you go to...

The point I was trying to make regarding local vs. global maps is that only global maps have polar issues. In Freeciv the top edge of the map is always north, the bottom edge is always south. A full Earth map which does not show polar regions across the entire width of the top and bottom rows will ...
