Description:

Another map for the builders!

This map I built around the idea of minimal asset usage in order to give freedom of choice what assets to use yourself.
Hence, only 2 items are required! Even better, only 240K trees used so it’s a light map suitable for lower end systems as well.
Also this map was built with Mass Transit and Parklife dlc’s in mind, this is a solid map if you want to play out those dlc’s to their full extent.

Regarding Mass Transit, if you would like a Network Extensions 2 version of the map, eliminating the need for Mass Transit dlc, let me know in the comment section. If this map gets enough demand for it and overall interest, I’ll probably upload another version of it with NExt2.

UPDATE: NExt2 Version can be downloaded HERE

Considering playability, this map is a very easy-to-play map.
• Plenty of flat buildable areas (see the screenshots at the end for a heightmap).
• Rail connection reaching throughout the map.
• A couple solid main highways through the map. As usual in my maps, I tend to keep the networking light to give freedom to create your own networking.
• Extensive shipping routes running all along and inside the bay, allowing harbor placement anywhere you like.
• Air connections present too of course.

I built all but one intersection (agusingnavy’s Moselle) from scratch, let me know what you think about them. Would greatly appreciate your feedback, as always. Should you want them as separate assets to be uploaded into the workshop, give me a holler.

Screenshots taken with Owl’s Cinematic v1 LUT + Daylight Classic.
81 tiles strongly recommended. Or at least 25 tiles. 90% of the build plain is within the 25 tile area, but I still do recommend using the 81 tile mod to access the edges too. And as always, when using 81 tiles I also recommend the clouds & fog toggler to disable edge fog.

Now, I do want to mention that these maps take a fairly long time to create (this one took maybe around 70+ hours).
Considering the amount of time I’ve put into this, it would be amazing if you were to spend a few seconds to leave a like 🙂 (or a dislike if you just happen to dislike the map for any reason..)
