Wow! Thanks.

Questions:

- Where did you get it.
- Is it scrollable to the right - into the Indian Ocean - beyond Oz?

It's from the latest written dev diary, and according to that diary, it is a complete world:

"In SH3 the world was kind of flat and the ships were very stubborn in not crossing the line when reaching the end of the map by turning 180 degrees. The Pacific Ocean was split in two beyond recognition. The first thing to do was to put everything on a cylinder so that the map scrolls, fish from both sides of the Pacific are reunited, the first AI trip around the world is actually possible..."

There is an option for imperial or metric system . The player chooses which one to use.

Good quote , but how about this one "I hope that the new capabilities will allow you to put in the game everything that we forgot or didn’t have a priority for it." I think you forgot wolfpacks again .

It looks kinda cartoonish. Can't say as I'm real impressed. Is this historical or something?

If you ask me, it's a huge improvement. It looks, far, far, far better than the SH III one. It's also supposedly using blocks of 400 m instead of 1 km, meaning it's far more smooth.

Okay, in that case I guess it's better. I just thought we might see something a little different from the old SH3 map, but the way you explain it sounds like it is an improvement after all. Thank you!

The map scrolls . Its the whole world , not just that part that you can see . You have to move the curser to move the map .
