Объясните пожалуйста как работает мод

this is porn

WTF did you do in {LINK REMOVED}mod.lua?? This is not really useful. What the HELL?

Is it possible, to comment out the option to change the day cycle? For changing the daylenght i use a other mod. :)

The parameter "townArea" is a number of square kilometers per one town, so an inverse of density

I still don't understand town density. Seems to sometimes make the map only have 2 towns.

I would also like massive seas/ocean :D

Is it possible control water?
Wider rivers, bigger/more lakes etc.

Excellent mod Gwinda, thanks for making it. I put a shortcut on my desktop to edit the map config file. I'll remind people again ... make the mod active and then edit this file:
\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\794729114\config\config.lua

Create a new map and it will follow the config specified in that file.

okay thanks

@david_anime I don't speak German, but If I understood you right: Yes, this mod is for generating new maps. You can't change the physical map of an already saved game.

Remember to edit the config file to set the various map parameters before generating the map.

geht das auch bei bereits bestehenden savegames oder muss man neu starten?

As the description says. Open the file
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\794729114\config\config.lua

All .lua files are plain text files. You can open and edit it with for example Notepad.

How do you open this mods config files?

Thanks

DropBox link updated. DropBox has changed some policy so all links needs to be recreated.

Seems the dropbox link is dead. Any chance of a re-up?

@Planemaster3d
If you look at the bottom of the mod description (here), you will find:

"Edit the parameters in the mod's config file.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\794729114\config\config.lua"

Where is the terrain customization? i don't see any of the options.

@Tossi Ya, seems a bit sad, especially given how simple the implementation is (didn't take too long to deobfuscate, with just the Lua interpreter :) ) -- it primarily overrides values from 'res\config\base_config.lua' with values from its config file, and optionally adds a file filter to remove any rock assets.

wie nutze ich den mapmod? Ins spiel eingefügt habed ich ihn aber i weiß ned weiter

Did you have to write this mod in such a way that you can't learn anything from it?

There is a TF Editor on Transport Fever.net worth checking out if you are having problems with getting Rid of main connection. It has a lot of other features aswell and works great. Download set your preferences and save. Then you can close it. Done. But this mod is still the best for Flat map generation.

I'm updating the mod but I'm also off for a nice vacation. I'm back next year! :D

Have the same problem like baracus37 since the last transport fever patch. Only small town are growing :/

My guess is that you have not read the instruction (at the bottom of the description tab).
..OR the pinned thread "How to configure the map mod":
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/794729114/224446432325144060/

There is a configuration file where you can select what kind of map generator you want. The default is "Flatt".

"Edit the parameters in the mod's config file.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\794729114\config\config.lua"

I have installed this mod, and uninstalled it as well. It flattens out hilly maps. So hilly maps are just flat maps. So unsubscribing.

1) This can't be modded
2) If you set modConfig.generator = '00' you get the original map generator.

The list of generators are documented in the mod's config file.

1, Can we have a setting that widens rivers and creates lakes?

2. Can you include the original random map terrain (hills & mountains) in the choices?

Damn, well thanks for the intel :)

The useMainConnecion on/off is a global param in the game allowing you to let towns and industries to have no connections. I don't think you can control this in a heightmap mod.

I'm trying to making my own map, and I'm trying to find out how to stop cities from making main connections (to create islands). Any idea how to stop a single city from making a main connection? (I see there is a function for main street connections on/off in your tool).

I tried this, but it doesn't work:
{pos = { ####, #### }, name = _("$$$$$$"), sizeFactor = 2, useMainConnections = false},

regard ai traffic you may should remove it out of the desrciption ^^ is still there when you load the map in tpf menue.

But as fares I know you can slow them down to 1 km/h per hour the problem than is some of them still would use the car and that will cause some mayor problems.

So I have been using this mod for 60 years in-game time and none of my towns which are connected by train/bus routes grew at all.

-- Town parameters
modConfig.townArea = 10 -- Town density
modConfig.townInitSize = 2.0 -- Initial town size
modConfig.townGrowthSpeed = 1.5 -- Town growth speed
modConfig.townGrowthExponent = 0.95 -- Towne growth exponent (factor)
modConfig.majorStreetAngle = 10.0 -- Angle within town major street directions are randomized (in degrees)
modConfig.maxTownSize = 0 -- 0 (unlimited) or a number >= 500 (limits all land use counts)


Initial town size was ~700-800 for the biggest ones and they still remained at 700-800.
Can anyone help?

I have my day setting on 2 and Industries on 3200, when first starting up the map it does not show the original indutries that are generated or the ploppable ones as 3200 production. But when i add 2x slower mod they all show the Map Mods setting. Just a tip for those not noticing any difference in their game. Toot Toot.

If you do find the file on a Mac please share with us :)

ok its all good thank you so much

I don't own a Mac so I have no Idea how Steam organize the downloaded mods on a Mac.

On windows the file is located here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\794729114\config\config.lua

Maybe it is somewhere else on a Mac, you have to search for it.

Hi as a mac user I can not find the config files and same as the gentleman below can you please provide separate instructions for mac users thanks

@Aquapainter
Sorry but I don't speak German...
Check the description tab to locate the configuration file.

Macht einen netten eindruck. Und wie verwendet man das nun? Die Mod ist abboniert und beim freien Spiel eingefügt. Was und wo kann ich denn da nun ändern?

What isn't working? Have you activated the mod? Have you opened the mod's configuration file?
See the Description to find the mod's config file.

it doesn't work for me how do I use it

ps: I'm on a mac plz don't h8

I want to make my cities grow faser

What do you mean with "control city population?"

Hi have a question is there a mod for transport fever that I can control the City population

its ok i dowloaded it again but from the other file that you have postet in site and put it manually now it works but thanks for the quick reply :)

I haven't updated it since the 6th of November.
What error do you get?
Have you added some other mods? The order of mods may be important.

Thank you @Gwinda :) Much appreciated. Keep up the good work !
