Has any one explored the possibility to mod the map to make it represent the earth as a globe (i.e. the way it is in eu4 etc..). Vanilla IR seems to be a flat earth.

Eh... the earth in IR is way more globle like than in EU4. Did you turn off 'allways face north' in the settings?
I don't remember EU4 having a globe in any sense... didn't played it for a long time but where was the globe? It was a flat mercator like projection.
Let me clarify. It is not about the map projection. In euiv, vic2 etc... you can take a ship and like Magellan circumnavigate the globe. I.e. sail west and end up at the same place. That is the map represent the world as a globe. The IR map crops the edges as inaccessible. Is that the only thing that stops a circumnavigation or is it an actual flat earth - have any one investigated this?
During the launch stream I believe I recall the devs stated it was NOT possible to have the world wrap around because of the way the pathing is calculated for unit movement in I:R. I can't point you to exactly where that was at unfortunately.
