Yes, yet another stupidly simple tool to ease your modding experience
With this tool, you're able to draw the coastlines yourself. It even reads the current coastline data, if any.
* Left click to start/keep drawing,
* Right click to place current line and stop drawing.
Quite intuitive. Try fiddling around with it, it won't bite!
I chose the pink colour of two reasons:
1. It's easier to tell where you've drawn already.
2. Pink is the colour that's least likely to dominate your map.
If you already have a 'coastlines.dat' file in the 'data\earth' folder, the tool just appends to this file. Else it creates a new 'coastlines.dat'-file.
After you've drawn what you want, boot up Defcon and ... look! (The coastlines aren't spot-on in this picture, since I didn't feel like making a perfect coastline. Keep in mind you'd rather draw a pixel off the coast than a pixel in it)
Keep in mind this application is very simple, and it only specifies coordinates as integers. It's meant as a tool to ease coastlinedrawing (duh²) until there's a Map Editor available

Yes, I did just copy all that from the CityPlacer post. I think it's okay to be lazy after 2 hours of bugtracking
