Sea at half height.

[athanasios]

Actually, the current sea in ottd behaves as if it's a bit higher than flat land, doesn't it. It just isn't drawn any higher. So if we'd raise the sea drawing level by say 4 pixels (half a height), and change the coast graphics to match, it'd be correct again.

As later discussed, it seems it is very hard to do this. Many things have to change, but I believe it will worth the effort as game will look much more realistic.

Anyone willing to undertake this great task?
