Ok Thanks spud.
The problem with Hawaii, Iwo and Guadalcanal early is that they have a limited file size for the land masses. Then in the load.ini of the map, water is tiled around that map to create a bigger map with ocean around it. So in reality, Hawaii is really 320x160km, with game added tiled water around it.
I will look into making a few different maps using New Guinea as a template. It would have been really nice to have the entire Solomons chain but I'm afraid this may not be possible, and also a reason why Oleg and team have ignored this map for so long.
