^ That's typical / common - the color key for the image may list only the few colors which are significant as data, but depending on image format and how it was generated it will likely be from 8 bit to 24 bit color range with lots of "blends" along borders between colors. That can be fix...

The main problem I see with most land cover maps on the 'net is that they have far too many types of land cover for an easy, simple conversion to Freeciv tile types. Well, better slightly too many types than slightly too few. I can convert but i cannot create. ^ This one has both elevation and land...

No winners on the web, apparently

Found this while following the links :

It looks closer but i can't get it to give me what i want.
Even if it were the case, i'd be unable to redo the projection anyway.

You dream big, don't you? :) Probably :) Even at 20 to 100 Km cells, features like San Francisco would likely end-up being a single tile overstating the size of the town by at least 100%, and would probably become just one hill tile in the Freeciv map at 1-to-1 conversion. What limit might you choo...

Thanks for your reply, i wasn't expecting any 8-) Well, the problem is probably more about finding a suitable source map rather than actually converting it. As none of the maps i've found contain relevant data, i.e. civ-like terrain types. And they often have things drawn on top of it, e.g. lines fo...

I suppose ordinary Earth maps in Freeciv use Mercator projection ? Are other ones available anywhere ? (Obviously not just images but maps containing terrain type so a civ game can use them.) I'm especially interested in Winkel-tripel projection , which looked like a good compromise to me, at least ...

Yes. Just tried ship-to-ship transfer, with success.

It would be good if you could report it to the issue tracker: https://osdn.net/projects/freeciv/ticket I could, but i don't have an account there and don't necessarily want to create one. I had one at hostedredmine.com but it already felt weird. Besides, I'm afraid it will not be very useful withou...
