"...my favourite snowfall map of all time" - BonBonB, map expert

### Grimsoy made it into the top 17 maps selected by BonBonB. Feel free to go over to his channel and check out his videos!

### New version uploaded to fix the points highlighted by BonBonB: No more clipping pillars, dead end shipping route in the bay and some modification on the highway ###

***Map reviewed by BonBonB's What Map. Obtained the BonBonB seal of approval. Thank you for the nice review and the kind words.***

Welcome to Grimsøy! Welcome to the north!

An exploration team has recently found a huge oil reservoir off the coast. More people will move to this abandoned region and it has been decided to found a new settlement on the island of Grimsøy.

Information:
Thanks to Mother Nature for this awesome height map. The real life location is the island of Gimsøy in the beautiful Lofoten archipelago. However all highways, railways, rivers or the vegetation etc. are different on the real island

I recommend to use the Väterchen Frost Theme and the Realistic LUT V1.2

Currently, it is spring, the trees are flowering and I’m releasing a winter map. Probably not the best timing, but I hope that many of you will enjoy it anyways. This is my second map in the steam workshop and I was very motivated by the feedback I received on my first map.

If you like it, please consider leaving a like. In case of bugs, please report them in the comments.

Have fun!

Within the base game, regular weather can be enabled/disabled in the OPTIONS menu, in the GAMEPLAY subcategory. "Use Dynamic Weather".

If this is enabled, then it can only be a mod conflict, which would involve checking over and over again with unsubscribing and re-subscribing.

But maybe you are lucky and it is only the above setting in the options.

Im using this map with the recommended theme, no weather mods, .... but it never snows in my city???

Perfect! Enjoy your city build!

Never mind, I got it figured out. I was dumping all my city's traffic onto a series of exits along the same highway, which all fed into one highway interchange. Adding a few extra interchanges to make exits to the other main highway helped untangle things!

@TrueVCU: no, there are no settings. you connect the roads to the edge and the game spawn/despawns the traffic to/from a destination (another edge of map or sth in your city). So if there is an edge where you see no traffic at all, then I would check for broken roads, wrong orientations, etc. Which might have happened during your build. If it is only the case that there is one edge which has simply more traffic, then it is the game mechanic which might direct the traffic from or to the "fastest to reach" edge (the game does not include traffic jams in its "fastest" way calculation).

@Ingenium It's a beautiful map and I don't blame your junction design since it wouldn't even be a problem if 95% of all traffic weren't using the same route out of the city. I've never made a map so dunno if there's setting to determine where traffic comes from/goes outside the map

He, thank you for the feedback :-)

Unfortunately I am more of a map maker than I am a city builder and never had such big city on this map. Besides the usual tips and tricks from traffic guides on the steam workshop or youtube series (I think Biffa and SamBur have some traffic fix episodes), I have no other. Sorry

Hey, loving building on this map but my city is approaching 60k and I'm having issues with the highway: traffic leaving the city all uses the same highway route out and the backups are starting to accumulate back into the city itself. Any tips?

Thank you. I hope that you will enjoy your city built on this map again and again :-)

Beautiful map. This is one I will return to again and again. Just right for 25 tiles.
