Map editor - Rivers
First things first, I love how this editor works. The way you shape everything up is wonderful, and judging from the Armageddon map I still have some tricks to learn. Crater below sea level.

But one thing I am missing is a node to carve rivers or subtract from the land instead of adding. I was able to use a poly tool with flatten to carve a river, but it would've been nice to have a "linetool" instead of poly that you can tweak weights on points with and that has some fractal noise to make the shape more interesting.

I'm aware I could do multiple islands to get a river as well, but figured I'd throw my wish out there. A river carver would've been very neat and fun quick way to add some spice to the map.

The devs might add Rivers to the game at a later point, but they pose some problems for the current design, as they'll be suggestive of the potential for hydrolelectrical Power, and also serving as source for fresh Water, something that's currently intentionally difficult to obtain in large quantities.

So I'm thinking, either they won't add Rivers at all, or else it's somehing they have in mind for Update 6 or 7, a couple of years from now or so.

If it's salt water it doesn't necessarily have to be easy obtainable clean water
