This is a small Ocean map with lots of islands. Map radius is 250.
The spawn is a large wooden raft floating between the islands.
There will be boats around the spawn to make travel more convenient, everyone gets a boat!
I'm mostly done with the terraforming and started adding foliage to some of the islands.
There will be some small villages and lots of caves and dungeons, and at least one pirate ship :D
It's just me working on this right now, maybe i'll get some helpers for the building part.
Heres some screenshots:









Of course, a pirate ship will be in there







What do you think so far?

Maybe have more placeable boats spawn in chests? They still break easily...

Only problems I see with this map, is way too much water. The amount of water in maps such as breeze drives me mentally insane. As soon as you get the upper hand on your opponent, they just jump into the water with their fishing rod. Extremely annoying.
Another issue, is that boats can be easily destroyed. If someone was to ignore the corn chests, he could destroy 5-6 boats in the time that it takes people to loot the centre chests!
I like it though:p!

Thx for the comments guys!
And, Yes I was thinking of this water problem too. I think the boats will help, and technically, this has actually many times more landmass than breeze, while the glass dome is the same size. So the ocean in the middle seems big, but its not bigger than the vast ocean around breeze island.
Also, since the islands surround the map, and there is and will be a lot of cliffs and other obstacles, it should be easier to corner someone somewhere.

Personally, I don't bother much with people swimming away from me. If they can, then mostly I have failed to properly ambush them and kill them right away, so I rather look for the next opponent than swimming after them for 10 minutes.

I can see that it might be a problem in deathmatch tho. Best thing would be if it was possible to make the radius after which you get hit by lightning so small that you can't jump in the water in deathmatch at all. If not, I'll probably have to make it bigger or think of something else.

Is this land a vanilla map or is it worldpainted?

The terraforming looks great, but it could use some structures like a ruined castle and a ship etc.
