VERSION 1.4
Changelog:

Graphics:
- Made gray terrain 20% brighter.
- Fixed gray terrain and minimap appearing completely black in LOS view mode.

Map geometry and terrain:
- Added new terrain geometry for map center (lower terrain with ramps).
- Dynamically increase width of lanes between bases the more bases there is, to make more room for armies moving around center (only on maps with 6 or more bases).
- Made base entrances slightly less wide (width 600 -> 550) so that they are more useful as last line of defense.
- Made bottom deeper (-150 -> -200) so that it is more costly to build there. (Singu terraform cost about 400m -> 550m)
- Removed move-speed penalty on bottom terrain so that it is more suited to be used for bridges etc.
- Decreased ground hardness so that it is actually deformable by large explosions.

Resources:
- Added single Geo spot at map center (only on on maps with 6 or more bases).

Other:
- Fixed rare issue where base "A" would be second from the top clock-wise, instead of the first.
- Changed minimap label to not contain word "Random" as it confused some people. Changed minimap label color.

Enjoy! :)

how come its named violet rampart generator anyway and not azure generator?

but the map is so much more like azure, maybe we need more colors to pick from

for some reasons i often get massive fps drops on this map.
sometimes it goes down to 4 fps making it unplayable.

dumno if it's because i use an AMD graphic card, some drivers, or juts a bad setting i activated in the options...

sounds like an issue caused by drawing too much water suddenly.. i made a mod for you to test it.. just make swifts as normal they have full map vison.. map is also flooded.. it may be a good idea to change it to dry aswell to test if thats any different.

nope.. reason 1.. if whole map is water i think its always drawn and not suddenly called into being drawn on fog reveal .. and maybe possibly while being drawn at another loaction simultaniously..

nope.. reason 2.. maybe revealing map with the modded swift does not cause lag ???

yes... reason 3.. maybe this mod will cause extreme lag ???

need test no water to see if its water based.

ok so testing your mod: The moment my first swift completes the game hangs for a number of seconds, so i guess your theory could be right? It does manage to catch up to current game state after a bit however, something that never happened in my tests, perhaps because your mod kills the swifts over time so there is no backlog of unit orders to catch up with?
Perhaps other generator maps has this problem as well? Hmmm doesnt seem that way

My testing suggests that the Swift scouting latency problem would be completely solved by briefly granting global vision, which the map script could do between terrain generation and commander placement, but which the game host could also do during pregame with cheats.

good work. =)
