Thistle Island

Description
Thistle Island

This terrain is based on the real life island of Thistle Island, Australia. Creative liberties have been taken to make a more unique, interesting and engaging terrain.

"Thistle Island / Noondala is in the Spencer Gulf, South Australia, some 200 kilometres (120 mi) west of Adelaide, and northwest of the Gambier Islands. The city of Port Lincoln lies to the northwest of the island. Between them, the Gambier Islands and Thistle form a chain across the mouth of the gulf between the southern tips of the Yorke and Eyre Peninsulas,[1] sometimes referred to as the Taylor Islands group.

The island is approximately 17 kilometres (10.5 mi) long and varies in width from 1 kilometre wide (0.6 mi) at its narrowest central part to 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) wide in the south-east part. Whaler's Bay is a wide bay on the east coast of the island, and Albatross Island is a tiny island to the south."

I've no idea why they don't remove the broken rocks lol

If you exporting from Eden to TB, make sure you use E2TB as official export from eden is broken

Also some objects have land contact points (which can't be disabled), so these slope to the terrain! Just place them flat in eden and TB will do rest.

Example from my terrain, you place it like on left and it will show like on right when imported

@Ice
Appreciate that.

I'm hoping I'll get back into it at some point and I'll fix them up. I've moved entirely into the weapon modding front at the moment. But if free time comes back my way I'll get tracking.

I have to be honest things like the rocks and objects not translating like they should into TB killed my mood 😂

Went over limit lol

There is 2 sets of rocks, one works and the other is broken. You need to add to template library in TB, the rocks in the folder below these one. No idea why the dev's don't remove them!

I think it's control + m to lock an object position, then just shape terrain around it. Also only says locked until your close buldozer

They mostly OK, easiest fix is just locking them in place in buldozer and shaping terrain.

This is too high

Hey Ice, not auto generated. This stuff takes ages. I'm not aware of any buildings with that error, where are they?
Ice 17 Jul, 2024 @ 4:22am 
Was this auto generated? Loads of buildings have doors you can't get into due to being higher than the terrain

Hey @DogOne
Cheers!
I ought to get back into working on it a bit more, detailing the Northern portion of the islands certainly been on the list along with re-doing the cliffs in particular. When I get back to it It'll be right onto the list!

We have been using this island for c010 Escape missions (modified). Great terrain for that style of mission. Highly recommend.
