Den Drommel -Z- [REWORK]
Credits disclaimer:
All credits goes to the original map author, please give him upvotes.
The original map was uploaded on 01/01/2016.
I only want to share modifications I made on his project, if this can interest someone.
The map is (should be) mods free and should not require any DLC in particular, but since there are some users with issues, I recommend you to have the Mass Transit one, at least.
The theme on the screenshot I used is “Monte Belo” Theme, by Mark Fire. Think about giving it a look.
It is not required to have it to play.
As the original, the map is designed to play with 25 tiles mod (by tomdotio), so I highly recommend it, it’s a must have.
Ground deepest elevation is at 0.
Water related areas are at 47.
Flat ground areas are at 60.
Changes from the original map:
– Main “in lands” highway removed to have more free space.
– Reshape the coastal elevation around some places (more rough).
– Removing few trees and forest areas (mainly to “create” buildable zones).
– Removing “farm/fields” trees layout inside the 25 tiles.
– Reshaping “main” (with outside connections) train tracks.
– Adding oil and ore sea zone (to be able to build the offshore platform and the dragging harbor).
– Flattening most of the lands, on the 25 tiles and out of boundaries.
– Train tracks are elevated with 4×12 units by 3m elevation (for more smoother effect on trains traffic).
– Terraforming areas for sea connected buildings, aligned on sea water level.
– [Sunset Harbor] Sorry, no tuna.
– More details…
Please, see dedicated screenshots to see where I think different districts/facilities should go, but it’s clearly up to you.
Personal disclaimer:
I really enjoyed the map as the author built it. I played a nearly +70h save game on Den Drommel before thinking about a few updates.
Those “updates” reflect my own gameplay style and how I see things.
For example, I love to build on flat lands, because the game doesn’t handle perfectly terrain elevation differences when building (for example : parkings lots are going crazy with some 85° degrees angle … I mean : “Yeah, go park your car on that spot” ^^).
Moreover, I changed the layout of the main train track and highway to be able to build without “restriction” in the middle of the map, and I also terraformed some spots regarding “harbor/dock/water connected” buildings.
You may doesn’t like that … I can understand. Just remember that the “bulldoze” button exist before leaving a comment or a dislike.
If you spotted something that can be improved, let me know here.
A bug ? Tell me there.
