Zetnus's Improved Nile Delta

Description
This is my attempt to improve some aspects of the Nile Delta map included with African Kingdoms, as was requested by Alkhalim.

I've done the following:
>Randomized map orientations (players can start in any corner of the map)
>Significantly more land on the sides
>Fixed bugs in the objects_generation section
>Slightly more trees and gold/stone/berries
>Slightly larger central islands
>Removed the elevation_generation section because it was not working at all
>More trees on starting islands
>Added transport ship

If you have further ideas/suggestions for changes to Nile Delta let me know.
I will warn you that the map is not scripted in a straightforward manner, so not all changes will be easy/possible to implement, but I will try my best.


To play choose the following when setting up a match:

Map style: Custom

Location: ZN@Nile_Delta

Updated this map to v3. The main change is that you now get a transport ship and more trees on the starting island.
Also, you can now get this map for the Definitive Edition here: https://www.ageofempires.com/mods/details/2861/

Good! I like your taste. Think of something new! Me and my buddies love to play Zetnus maps. We play Pangea and Hidden Valleys like always!

That was a joke of course. I'm not actually dead.

@JPence14 - I'm sorry to announce that I did, in fact, die, about a week ago.
I haven't really told many people yet. It happened on April 1 and it was a rather unfortunate occurrence. I’m not very happy about it because it means that I won’t be able to write any more scripts for the foreseeable future :(

Are you dead, Zetnus? I miss your new map scripts coming out, as I think yours are definitely the freshest.

@Nobody - The transport ship might be a good idea, although giving people starting ships is always a bit wierd and doesn't work on all terrains for some reason. I'll take a look at Serrengheti and Kilomanjaru as well.

Great work. A request, can u make a nile delta where u start on the island like normal but u get a transport ship? Also I would appreciate a Serrengheti or Kilomanjaru with for a tiny 2pl map an extra stone and gold, a little more starting food for each player (maybe 4 goats), and trees that arent as dispersed per clump. Keep up the good work!
