World Background Maps

Thanks! It's actually a damn hell, trying to make a best fit of the background image
to map data produced during many years in different environments, like other map
projections, lack of Map Editor background image support among other things!

Take it easy, take a nice cup of tea, look at the stars, contemplate the Universe, all is gonna fit into place.

UK still glitch at Felixstowe... w/Promods.. (or it isnt fixed?)

Corsica and Sardinia seems a bit slighted... :)

@CAPLV

The Felixstowe problem is due to the fact that SCS scales in the game engine
the UK area from the 1:15 used there to 1:19 and Promods Felixstowe most
eastern delivery point is located outside that auto rescaled region, hence
that anomaly. The Sardinia - Corsica deviation is due to what I answered
earlier, the different circumstances that the map data has been created
under. What's your choice, best fit for Sardinia - Corsica or one for the UK?

wow so when i report something it gets completely ignored and then someone else reports it and you answer.
im not salty, as long as it gets reported by someone thats good, but its pretty frustrating.
i cant be bothered to start another argument here so guess i wont report anything then.

@BenganJ - i understand that.. you just mentioned, so i was thought you`ve fixed that, no problem for me.. UK.. atm i`m using old promods combo BG.. so i can live.. :D

for all users good it better fix UK, than Sardinia/Corsica.. (if its possible, no pressure from me)

I projected my own map using the same parameters and, sure enough, it matched bengan's.
SCS either have given us the wrong parameters or max was incorrect in saying that they are currently using the new parameters, so i asked on scs forums:

So Bengan wasnt wrong after all? That is a surprise...not.
