Phantom land tiles for island groups

Would it be possible to either add a new row of land tiles or tweak the currently available small island land tiles in order represent large groups of small islands? Functionally these tiles could act like solid land tiles while showing of as several micro land masses within one tile (i.e. Micronesia, Polynesia, Marshall Islands, Gilbert Islands, Caribbean, etc.), so placing units and infrastructure would be possible on islands.

I guess technically it is already possible to redraw the last couple of solid land tiles in the first row of the png image, and the desired functionality could be achieved this way, however these would then get mixed in with other regular solid land hexes when the editor randomizes them at saves.

Any chance of such development?

Hi

You can certainly mod this, and it might be best as I'm not sure that an official change is likely, at least not in the short/medium term, if it were to happen.

Though if a resource is placed on the island there's normally not a great deal else that can be seen, e.g. Malta.
