It looks like normal outline map tsx relies on basic outline map tsx. When I change config.ts for basic outline map, it does not appear on screen after build. Do I only need to change config.ts for normal outline map? Changing this does show change after build.

After multiple tests, I don't think the config.ts file from basic outline map is used when normal outline map/scatter outline map viz is used. The country json file should be configured within config.ts of normal and scatter outline map only.

There is also specified requirements for geojson files for the map to display properly. The Aliyun site used to generate the geojson files for china and china-city does not cover other countries.

Quick update. I was able to add a new map for Philippines. The geojson file is about 1mb. Other countries can be added the same. How can I change the map icon to a globe icon for internationalizing the map function?

If there is interest to include this as additional feature, I can submit a PR to include few other countries.
