Can we get this XML re-checked so the map can be put in play please.

I've checked the xml attached to this post --> viewtopic.php?f=64&t=156364&start=270#p3988624

If that one is the right file, there're few things to fix:

1. Oamaru is written as omaru in the xml.
2. Wakatane shouldn't start neutral 3
3. Nelson has 1 autodeploy on it, when it should be Nelson N.P. to have it
4. Hurunui shouldn't have 1 autodeploy
5. Gisborne has 4 neutral on it but they should be on Ruatoria
6. Mt. Taranaki should have 4 neutral, as stated in the legend
7. Tahiape misses the 1 autodeploy
8. Hastings misses the 1 autodeploy

I think that's all.
A final personal suggestion: I noticed the Q.T. white airplane is very hidden, but I have no idea how you can make it more visible. But it sounds like the hidden tribe name in your pot mosby map so take it only like a personal thought and not a stamp requirement. As said no idea how to make it more visible without having it lokking bad.
I was going to suggest to have matamata listed with the others, but after looking at the map on the whole and considering the size and the shape of it, I think you made a good choice in having that abbreviation in the top part.

Anyway...looking forward the final files, then we'll be ready to play!

Sounds close ... my 2c worth is that perhaps you could switch the yellows between Wellington and Otago? The deeper yellow may serve better against the white plane? But again, don't do that if it's going to make South Island look ugly!

Switching those yellows is not an option because the brighter yellow would become larger and draw ones eye to it too often...quite mucking up overall design.
As for the plane, tbh, if players don't bother to look at what they're doing (like happened on PM), that is their issue. The plane is quite clear on that territory. And if they don't see it initially, they'll soon find out it is there when someone attacks them from it.

Anyway going to check the new files now.

Guys, i am very touched that you post such patriotism. Superb. Always loved this anthem.
But there is one thing you have forgotten to attend to for all visitor before this map becomes live.

And i give permission for one good one in this thread.
