And here you go, @JeffisOrange! It looks SO much more beautiful than in the... not so attractive temperate landscape. I think I will have to play it as well, it is really different with many more adventures possible. Have fun and post some screen shots if you have time! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=456163959

Sweet man. I was so excited to see all your cool maps after taking a long break from this game. Keep up the amazing work!

Hey @JeffisOrange, I'm doing a ton of work on it to make it really great, adding all the things I've learned along the way. Should be done tonight (European Time) or tomorrow.

Funny you should ask, I thought about that last night. Happy to do so!

Can you please make a european version of this map?

Hey @aubergine18, I just uploaded the new map, and I want to thank you for the ideas you contributed to it! It has the ability to have a 1600 MW hydro dam (lol!) and I used the resource as paint, but in a very different way. Also, I included islands in the mist ;) Thanks again for these great ideas, and I hope you share your map, too!

Glad to oblige, @Ozymandias. I feel the same way, which is why I create these maps for myself. It's even more fun to share them!

Ah, the Temperate version! Thank you uploading this. I'm usually very (very) picky about my base map. After all, who wants to spend countless hours on a boring map? But this map looks like one I can use many times. Thanks again, Sartiblartfast would be proud.

@aubergine18 I saw some images of maps from Stronghold2, looked amazing! It'd be great to have more textures: I would be making little Irish fields on this new map with a hundred varieties of green ;). It is pretty good, though... at least when we put in water pipes it doesn't warp the land like in Sim City. That got annoying

Yup, I long for more textures and ideally terrain tint tools in the map editor. Best map editor I ever saw was in a game "Stronghold 2" - the gameplay was somwhat broken, but the map editor was epic in terms of the level of customisation you could do.

Hi @aubergine18, great!! Yes, I love what Scotland Tom did in Copper Creek. That would look GREAT on a map like this, wouldn't it? I think of it as really his idea, and also... wow, the HOURS he must put in! :D Maybe Colossal Order will make some farm models that have multi colored fields in the future.

btw, have you tried using resources as texture tint tools? used to great effect in the Copper Creek map...

great map! exactly what I've been looking for!
