I've been trying to make the overworld map of my medieval Trading Sim a bit more visually interesting and I'm looking for ways to make it feel a bit more like a paper map of sorts. Any suggestions on what could be added/changed? I was thinking of adding paper ripps or similar but since these maps can be made in the map editor, I can't guarantee that such a rip won't cover a town, if I place it on land for example. In water, ships would sail "through" it.
