Vanilla Lake – Updated 2019
2019 Update: WAY more hydro power! Lots of fiddling with sea level, lake flow land and river. Electric production now between 600 & 700 MW. To build your hydro dam, click the dam function once on the end of one of the walls (super easy – the wall end snaps together with the dam end), then drag your cursor over to the other wall end (again, snaps for you), click again and done!

It’s another vanilla map with a creative name! XD This one has a 25 square area that has some more variation in terrain than Vanilla Coast.
Hydro Dam system and tested. See images here for instructions, you will find guideline walls for where to place the dam.
4x all connections
The terrain in the heart of the map has several different elevations of leveled land, with gradual, sloped transitions between each level for a natural look. Only the slope to the shoreline is steep but is still relatively smooth
If you’d like the start square’s traffic circle highway exit, you can find it here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1277038290
On that listing are some explanations of why traffic does some weird things on these circles, with strategies on how to reduce (non modded) or eliminate (modded) the impact of strange vehicle behavior on them, which helps to keep the traffic flowing quickly as originally when you started your city. To understand vehicle AI, read up here on the wiki and a brief youtube tutorial. It helped me go from traffic mayhem to traffic heaven:

Not what you’re looking for? No problem! Check out BonBonB’s "What Map?" series where he reviews maps. You*ll get to see some maps from map makers you might not have heard of yet, or some up and coming map maker stars, so it’s well worth taking a look! 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOdJfwm1gxph00eeu9X6nvEWQEEFsX_e3
