Ref

I noted that there was no readme with this mod. Since there is no “permissions” is it correct to assume in user / mod make can use your work without written permission?

Yes, besides the Kiel canal and scapa, that are usefull for the ATO, I thought that the Panama canal could be usefull for the PTO, at least for some special missions, Suez is just eye candy as to my knoledge no sub used it.

Ref

Suez was used by british submarines in transfers from the Med to the pacific, so it could be useful for allied submarines :hmm:

Too bad the way the terrain works forces a Kiel Canal that is three times wider than the real one. At least that's true in SH3. It would be nice if it could be the correct width.

Same size limit here 3 pixels = 600 meters.

Haven't tested, but should work ok, as the terrain files haven't changed.

Pretty cool ref, I only remember reading about the canals modded in SH3 (I haven't played it for a long time), so now we can enjoy this in SH4.

Will Sofu Gan be a possibility ?

That was one Seriously importent landmark for all the Pears boats as well as aircrafts and other.

It was used not only as a landmark, but allso to calibrate the radar, as its height were known.

You mean this ?

Sorry, but it's not possible to be that detailed both in size and height with the game terrain engine, remember that the smallest area is 100x100 mts. Also it's not possible to make soneting that small have that height due too the game smoothing the height values bewtween points.

Float a light house there, but without the light. Give it a rocky texture.
