Default Re: Height Maps

We will be looking for a way to allow water to be added to maps that will only fill in the level zero area with water with the press of a button that leaves all terrain >0 untouched. This will allow maps with island and/or coastline to add water without it being nearly so much the chore it can be now...it's "on the list" and it seems doable but we will see, hopefully, we can get it to work.

Don

Example This is what is generated for Latitude 45.41 Longitude -80.33



This is what the code change we are looking into would do






Also there seems to be a new problem. I tried to use the info generated in the txt file

https://www.venhola.com/maps/geo.php#45.41,-80.33,0

but all I get when I try to use it is a spot on Antarctica not 45.41,-80.33

This is what it should be....at least according to the info the map shows when I get the area I want

https://www.venhola.com/maps/geo.php#-80.33,45.41,0

so lat and long are being reverse in the txt file info or the generated info
