Vnlr: I was wondering a while ago, if you made all the units, buildings, trees,... smaller, wouldn't that make the map seem larger?
I'm not sure if it hasn't been done in the Realistic Mod (

I personally can't make such changes in the "unofficial patch" for the following reasons:
- The patch shouldn't modify game too much,
- It would be harder to play with smaller buildings / units, and that would affect multiplayer gameplay :(
The "patch" should not modify game, but add features, fix bugs (especally on the newer operation systems), etc, that's why unfortunately I decided to stop with the modding part. I also know that some people didn't like gameplay changes in 1.5 (that's why I added an option to disable new buildings / units in game by the configuration utility

But I appreciate all the ideas, and I know that it would be good for the game. I just simply can't do it to not lose "happy users" :(
