Create a real world political map

so one approach for anykind of map is to use a “clickmap”.

basically an overlay texture. with solid fill color for each region you want to be clickable.
When the map is clicked, look up the pixel in the clickmap.
The rgb value maps to the lookup table so you know what area was clicked.

This lets you easily know when complex regions or areas are clicked.

Hope that helps…

Sorry to Necro the thread, but could you in theory just turn the alpha down on the Overlay texture so you could see the real Earth color and still do your solution?
