While I have a nitpick, it's nothing that would keep you out of the forge... The leftmost edge of the map (from the 'Impassable' text to the top of the map) is very straight, while every other edge has a bit of weathering added to it. - It would be nice to see the straightness reduced just a tiny bit.

See you in the forge :P

Does Aonikenk connect to Selk'nam? Either way, could you somehow make it more obvious? I'm thinking this may have been addressed before but I didn't feel like rummaging thru old posts.

They don't connect.. it seems clear enough to me.

Agreed. The islands of Selk'nam and Yaghan have explicit connections to the mainland territory of Te'uesh, and the strait separating Selknam from the mainland is, if anything, wider near Aonikenk than it is near Te'uesh.

Yeah - the explicit line also infers an implicit impassable.

Anyways, back on topic! I don't find anything particularly wrong. Are we just waiting for Beta or what?

XML stamp is next. I do not think any XML has been posted here yet, unless it is a long way back. The first post doesn't have it.

well.. it's done, but I don't like the third 8 to the right..

Yes, Igneri and Yaghan are obvious issues, and if you can shuffle Guaymi and Kuna a bit so that the former is not prone to running into the latter, that would be great. (To make that work, you might have to move things in Choco a bit.) For the same reason, you might move Te'uesh a bit north to avoid Alakaluf. Lastly, for me, (and least importantly, I suppose) Cariri runs over a border and a river. Again, moving the number north (and possibly moving the name south) would help here.

Looks like ender has identified all the real issues with the 3rd digit; I'm assuming that you've checked that your XML passes the validation test and that you've checked all the border connections?
