Hello everyone!

For a while, I have been working on recreating Drevet into a more manageable ‘guided collaboration’ country, similar to the Ardisphere.

(http://wiki.opengeofiction.net/wiki/index.php/Talk:Federation_of_Drevet_and_Wustesonne)

I’d like to hear any questions and/or comments to the Collaboration Page.

Thanks for everyone’s help!

Hi! There are some problems with the standard layer of the map - it took a lot of time to render changes on zoom 13 and still hasn’t finished on zoom 14 - on zoom 15 it’s okay again. The edits were significant (adding a lot of roads and landuse) and made quite some time ago (at least a day, I couldn’t remember). What’s the problem?

Hello everyone!

My countries are located on the edge of a desert. I am interested in finding a way to identify a region within the desert where sand dunes are generally/typically located. Since dunes often travel, using a ‘mountain’ marker would not be suitable.

Thoughts?

Let’s clarify what have I said in the post about holiday travel tips:

“Since Conabaras is currently having a civil war…

EMERGENCY TIPS IN CONABARAS

• Whenever encountering any tribal nomads, please show them the security card you gained in the airport, since these nomads are rebels that Conabaras is at war with.

This card means that if you are a tourist, you can show this card to prove it. Civilians also own this card.

• If you’re being attacked anyway, please report to the nearest building.

This rule applies if you have lost your security card or you haven’t gained it.

• In any case of an alarm, please evacuate to the nearest War City.

As basic as it sounds, just go to the war city. Learn more about them here.

• Outside of the hotel, wear a blue tie so you will be protected or noticed by the government. Whenever a raid or a bombing occurs, you’ll be protected.

This rule gives knowledge to the government that if you have this tie the government will know that you are a tourist.

• In case of bombing, please go to the underground shelters and bunkers, and the government advises to stay in those Shelters at least for 2 hours.

Simple as it sounds.

Even if there’s a war, remember, Conabaras will protect you, and during civil wars, all prices are lowered by 50%! So thanks for visiting Conabaras!

Now this one is a bit stranger, since it says civil WARS rather than the civil war. The prices that are lowered are mainly for resources or whatever equipment is required during the war. Not a new pack of video games.

HOPEFULLY I HELPED

I’m going to start mapping in Agarderia. However, I have no idea what to map there. I have completed the basic layout of the country, having mapped the locations of rivers, forest cover, roads, railways and settlements. I am unsure where to progress after this. It would be best for Agarderia to have an eastern European feel to it, much like its neighbours Karamsk and Latania. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should progress or what I should start mapping first?

Context for Agarderia:

1. Agarderia is a developing nation. It has an HDI of 0.732.
2. Agarderia has been in a civil war since 1998. However, fighting has been isolated and rare since 2010. A largely unrecognised breakaway nation, the Social Republic of Glastian Agarderia, lies to the east of Agarderia.
3. Agarderia was a communist nation before 1986, and a fascist nation from 1936 to 1946.
4. The most populated regions of Agarderia lie to the south, near the coastline. Most of Agarderian industry is found here.

The Agarderian wiki page is found here.

Since it is a holiday for most people now, share your country’s travel tips here if anyone is going to visit your country. For example: Commonia- Before visiting, make sure you have enough Commonian Buc with you as there are very few money changers In Commonia. Other currencies including the USD is not accepted as legal tender, with some exceptions of the West Commonian Buc. Bringing ten thousand Buc into Commonia is like going for an out-of-money experience. These travel tips will be posted here . If any errors found in that article feel free to edit the wiki article yourself.

This is part of your creativity, and based on your country’s unique characteristics and state of affairs. Happy Holidays! Zhen Kang

I have two things to say.

First, I’d like to say sorry, I really messed up, I just barged into other people’s territories and had no idea that I was going where I’m not allowed. Thankfully, those edits have been reversed and I’ve started editing where I should.

Second, I’m pretty sure people have done this before, but this one place in Commonia, a small, barren island across from Cascavade City, I have just lightly edited to include some stuff, like a town I have named Lunaris, you should be able to look it up and find it, plus some ruins on the other end from the town, along with a railroad splitting from the main one and reaching towards the town.

Anyways, I wanted to ‘open’ this town as some sort of collaborative mini-project, where you guys can help add things to the island and town. Again, I’m sure someone has done this. I just wanted to see if the community could build a town together.

Cheers, Nomine.

A couple hours ago, I requested the territory of Fleeteles (AN129). I’m still waiting, and I haven’t gotten a reply yet. I asked somebody how long does it take, and they said it took them one hour. How long is it supposed to take, and what is the longest it’ll take? Thanks!

In JOSM i did the exact thing to make a city, went to presets, and selected city from making the area, it shows up in JOSM but dosent show in OGF please help

Why are the awkwardly placed countries like Slavonia, Florescenta, Scandmark and Swaldia so empty?

I thought a mapper was only allowed to work on 1 project, and when he/she works on one for considerable amount of time, and maps it out in enough detail, then he will be allowed to work on other territories.

Meanwhile @Andy breaks the rules, somehow aquires 5 territories, and leaves them half finished. Also i would like to know why he used multiple real place names in his mapping(Ljubljana, Zagorsk, Hastings, Königstein)

This is not an attack on @Andy, rather just constructive criticism.

Everyone is welcome to build an embassy on Embassy Road in Carran. If you want you can also build a Embassy of Auleus in your country

I am rather new here and I have created a new city in Meridonia called Auxuburg. It’s a work-in-progress and I would appreciate some tips, comments, and even some help. (Though not much, I’m pretty sure I’ve got this so far, I actually read the FAQ)

The only thing I see wrong with the city so far is the population I put in the note, it maybe a bit too high.

Also, I’m not sure if the city’s loading properly, can any of you see it?

Thanks, Nomine.

Hey guys, Froggychum here.

If you care, Ive been gone for a few days…

This is because me and my family had to head up north to go see my grandfather in a hospice.

Sadly, he passed away.

Im still not sure if Ill be here for the next couple days (I might have to go back), but thats why I couldnt be on recently.

Anyway, I’m fine, and I hope you all had fun without me.

Will be coming back ASAP

<3 for all

Am I doing this right? I’m not so sure about this: http://opengeofiction.net/#map=17/11.17113/37.04390

Hey all, I created a national flag. What do you all think? Also, I can’t figure out how to add it to the country list.

Thanks!

Hello, Can someone create a video (walkthrough) on how to use JOSM for editing the OpenGeofiction map and displaying the OpenGeofiction map as background in JOSM? The section of it in the FAQ is a bit hard to understand.
It can be useful to future users of Opengeofiction

Hi! I’ve done an airport. I have never been on one (and hopefully i won’t need to), so I’d like to ask you is it okay. I know it is really basic and propably lacks some major feature, but hopefully with your advice I can do better. What do you think? By the way, the airport is open to flights up to 800km, so if you want to fly here - message me. And one more question - i’ve used Key:name:de and Key:name:en here, does it display correctly on your computer’s language settings?

Hello. Can I create islands within my territory? If so, how?

What do you people think of Palaseskia so far?

I still have tons to do.

Be sure to share your opinions and suggestions.
