Hi,

a comment by Kamos ( 
http://sourceforge.net/p/freecol/wiki/WWC1D%20-%20resource%20output%20v2/#cd6a 
) made me check major rivers in Col1 .

This is what i've found :

Col1 has minor & major rivers
Both are terrain features , NOT terrains of their own.
Ships can't navigate major or minor rivers
Major rivers seem to appear on coastal tiles and can occur on both land 
& water tiles.
I haven't checked production effect of major rivers, but it seems likely 
they'll give bigger bonuses then minor rivers.

Freecol only has 1 type of rivers that functions as a terrain feature.
Great rivers are a terrain type in freecol, which doesn't seem to have a 
counterpart in Col1.


Adding major rivers to freecol will (at the very least) require changes 
in map creation and in formulae used for resource production .

Is it the wish of freecol devs to have both major & minor rivers in 
freecol ?

If so, the production tables for Col1 will have to include both river 
types.
(this will probably double the number of columns in the tables).
A new feature request should also be opened to track this issue.
