Map editor suggestions

1. Custom colours for individual countries, not just all countries
this would be useful if you were say making a provincial/regional map of more than one country Spain/Portugal would be a good example, if you wanted to show the borders of both countries clearly.

2. movable, and rotatable country names.

3.A country doesn't have to have a capital to be saved
this will one make it easier to save when in a hurry, and two mean that country labels on countries you are showcasing but not playing with are clearly labled

4. The ability to label seas
For OCD cartographers

5.A redo button. fairly simple, it very frustrating when you undo to much and can't redo it.

Yo man, I support you on most of these, however:
1: Custom colours for each country can mean a restriction in selecting player's colour in game
2: Country names don't need to be rotatable, just that it's auto centre and resize is bad.
3: Already done after my Scenic Country suggestion
4: Seas aren't that important as long as a relative position from a city can be given
5: Brilliant idea,but don't know whether engine can do that

Thanks, ezzatam

1. Not going to implement this, sorry.
2. Movable and resizable country names: coming soon. Rotatable: not.
3. Coming soon.
4. Please do it on the background image, in Photoshop. If you're not happy with the country or city label restrictions, you can do the same with them, and then make labels transparent in the edtor.
5. I'll ask Amok if it's easy to implement.
