djmrFunnyMan 4b7bd3bcdb Add a new Mars (Revised) map (#1435)
Fixes #1559

## Description:

The current Mars map has several issues:
- The map is very underdetailed
  - The coastlines are very smooth and visually unappealing
  
- The map was created from an incompatible source image, which results
in the height data being very wrong
  - As a result the map hardly resembles Mars at all.
  - There is too much land
  - The major landmass is almost entirely covered in plains
  - The ocean doesn't match the heightmap

- The gameplay is boring
  - The map is very succeptable to snowballing issues
  - The map seems commonly disliked in the community

I attempted to remedy this. 
- The water level and elevation are calculated from accurate height data
- Water level is much higher making the map much more interesting, both
in the gameplay and visual aspect.
  - The map has several contitents which should slow down snowballing
- The map is much more detailed overall
- I added a lot more NPC's. 8 for such a big map just wasn't enough.
