Hey!
In EB 1.0 I've noticed quite strange region boundaries on Peloponessos, at the southern tip of the peninsula. There's something like a "meeting" of 4 regions: Lakonike, Aitolia, Krete and Kilikia (in Asia Mnor :!: )
Why is that so arranged?
As I looked into MAP_REGIONS.TGA and MAP_REGIONS_safe.TGA files, the "safe" file has proper region boundary, with no "intrusions" of foreign regions on Peloponessos. Now I'm thinking on changing the file (and of course deleting map.rwm file to allow the campaign to be continued, as I understand...), yet I wonder why that was so arranged?
Just a mistake? (though I doubt whether EB team makes such "mistakes")
Or maybe this is to force other powers, who own the provinces so "hooked" in Peloponessos, to intervene there in case that someone marches into "their" territory?
Though I wonder why there is Krete so marked - it starts the game as independent and I never saw it being conquered by anyone... so maybe chosing some Egyptian province would make more sense?
I'm asking 'cause I don't like such "strange hooks" and I'd like to delete these 3 "unnecessary" pixels from the file, yet I wouldn't like to make some crash or so...
And - when I change the pixels in MAP_REGIONS.TGA file, I should ALWAYS delete map.rwm file and let the game create it again anew, right?
