Aegean Strait v.1.1

Description
I have finally updated the map. First of all, ship line is now goung through the strait! I have also fixed a couple of minor issues with landscape like start tile flooding.

Aegean Strait is temperate map based on area around Chalkida, Greece but far from being 100% acurate. Map gives you many possibilities to plan and build your city on this scenic landscape located around narrow strait connecting two seas.

As this my first proper map I share on workshop please share any thoughts and give feedback and suggestions for the future :D

Overview
Map may appear as hilly one, but in general there are many flat areas you can build on.
A few steep mountains and hills add variety and split map into smaller areas.
It is good for either large city or a few smaller ones.

Aegean Strait has lots of shoreline and beaches which gives you even more possibilities to plan what kind of city upi want to build. Would it be tourist / leisure oriented coastal resort or large, capital city with lots of industrial zones is up to you.

Features
- Optimised for 25 tile gameplay.
- 54% terrain suitable for building.
- All resources available, lots of them.
- Many trees but far from limit.
- All outside connections available.
- A few sandy beaches, mostly on the southern coast.
- Sea currents (water flows from north to south)
- Tiny bit of real life inspiration.
- A lot of patience and time spend in map editor ;-)

Final notes
I strongly suggest using 81 tiles mod
Gula's Tall Grass is recommended, but not required.

Don't ask about LUT I used on screenshots. I do not remember. I suggest using Definite Vision LUT which looks good and pretty similar with my recently published Aegean Map Theme.

Mate, I loved your map coz I'll be able to put some Maltese stuff now. But the problem is with the water. Looks like there are multiple water sources which are flooding a few regions and suddenly hitting the coast of 1st tile like a wave. It's a lovely map but an upgrade would be welcomed. Thank you. :D

I can't tell for sure. That is possible at some point. I do not have much free time lately and thus not playing games much.

Are you gonna "upgrade" (putting in some more recourses around << in 81 tiles> and in-sea oil and ore fields) after Industries DLC mate ? This map is fantastic but it needs to get more matured as the game itsealf does

Ok, tnx for reply mate

@liak_attack, remember that dam will not work if there is water source upstream which is below dam's edge. You might subscribe to Extra Landscaping Tools mod to change water sources.

Hey Khanador, I tried to build a (rised) dam between the hills on the exit of the "southwest" lake just to create an (bigger) artificial lake. Game saved , fastest speed, the only result was that the river dried up. The lake's water level never rised (I've been waiting for a long long time). I don't know if it was a result of game mechanics or yours. Pardon me, I just thought it right to post it here for probable improvements. Thanx for your time and once again thanx for this wonderfull map
