CheesyTaco21 —> Logan230.

The islands west of Marshall are open for development. Just thought I’d put it out there if anyone’s wondering about them.

The constant flooding due to improper coastline editing is getting ridiculous. We need some kind of list, check, or sign in before they touch the coastline, so we know who did it and when. I understand noob mistakes, but honestly, people need to read the FAQ before going to town on the coastline with wreckless abandon, which effects all of our countries. Nothing grinds my gears more than seeing blue for 2-4 hours or until someone gets around to fixing it because people don’t READ instructions. The last person didn’t even bother connected the ways and left a big gap. PAY attention before you upload anything involving the coasts.

Just saying. I know the intent is to show roads, but subway tunnels under streets are entirely hidden. (This is less of a problem for OSM because of their “transport map” layer, but even that has issues with bus routes covering subways.)

You’re asking for trouble. TEG24601: You are editing in someone else’s PRIVATE country. I’m sorry to say that, your city is actually very nice. Also, Picard is the name of another country on that very continent. I just thought I should warn you. You are welcome to edit in Drevet, my country south of Picard. Thanks, Logan

I cannot get JOSM to talk with OGF at all.

I’ve spent ages trying to learn how to do this, but no joy.

I get messages about ‘Remote Control’ that I don’t understand when I try to get them working together.

What do I need to do to be able to get JOSM editing - non-technical explanation, please.

As I’ve been threatened with my territories getting removed if I don’t get ‘serious mapping’ done, this is of paramount importance… especially as I’ve dedicated a year’s-worth of my little spare-time to this project already (almost all of which is in the compilation of my many-tens-of-thousands-word-long side-work: “The Encyclopaedia Brythonnica”, and in study of the OSM-Wiki ~ trying to find-out how to do this ‘serious mapping’!). Due to that ultimatum hanging-over my head, I’ve been forced to “come out” as a registered sufferer of a physical disability that has, does and always will seriously reduce my speed & abilities in manual-tasks (such as using the PC-interface to do my ‘serious mapping’ here), for example: I’m reduced to ‘mousing’ every communication ~ making my current ‘typing speed little more than 15-20 w.p.m. at very best; an effort I’m not able to sustain over much more than about 20 minutes per session, as even this wracks me with activity-ending neuralgia.

I HAVE previously advertised here for assistance with this ‘serious mapping’, but no-one’s been interested so far. I hope that someone might now come forward and offer their help; aside from my initial query about the JOSM.

I don’t wish to be ‘kicked-out’ of here simply because I’m physically limited, but unless I can find a willing ‘accomplice’, that looks like it could be likely, whether that be right, wrong, justifiable or fair!

I guess if you don’t hear from or see me/Brythonn again ~ I’ll have failed to entice anyone to help me with those ‘serious mapping’ things!!!

Hey everybody. Recently tom_m7 and PColumbus73 have brought up good points around the fact that there are way too many numbered routes in Drevet. With that being said, I’m going to revamp the TR system.

The main change here is that all tertiary routes will be removed of numbers. I’m hoping that everyone will agree with this change. Once again myself and others feel like Tertiary Routes can be unnecessary.

EDIT: City routes are hereby decommissioned. Also, to clarify, TR’s still do exist, and still have names. Just not numbers. EDIT AGAIN: Guys, if you agree with this, please help with this. If you see a TR that needs its number removed, please take a second and do it.

Thanks, and sorry if we’re flooding the User Diaries page. :3 ~Cheesy

In the Kuhn-Labrie area of Drevet, I think there are too many interchanges on the south end on Crystal Rd and Reback Rd. Not only that, they are too closely spaced. Also, I think it is unnecessary to have interchanges on Crystal Rd considering it runs parallel to MW 73 and MW 173. The same can be said for the interchange at Ruby Rd, Rocket Jump Rd, and Monroe Expressway. The interchange in place is not needed.

Just my opinions.

The relation says it’s owned by MassMapper, who did in fact do a bit of mapping within the country. But there is no such user and AN127 is unassigned on the overview map.

Thinking about languages in a “more seriously” way, hehehe…

I claimed the TA121 thinking about create a motherland to Luslandese language (Portuguese from Portugal) and Brasonian language (Portuguese from Brasil)

But, exploring the OGF world, I found two possible countries with the same idea I`ve had.

In http://opengeofiction.net/#map=5/-43.835/34.014 there is a “República Portuguesa” (Portuguese Republic), and in http://opengeofiction.net/#map=8/56.541/30.850 there is a country with names from Portugal (A little explanation: For example, in Portugal, a man`s name is “António”. In Brasil, the same name is “Antônio”)

I will follow my “Gran-Luslândia-TA121 project”, but I would like to know more about these countries and ideas because they have a influence in the history of the languages, and, for extension, my GranLuslândia.

Hello guys. I just wanted to ask for some more help with the expansion and growth of Drevet. Remember that everyone and anyone can edit at anytime. If you are interested PM me. Thanks, Cheesy

EDIT: Obviously there is confusion with how the highway system works. Let me explain.

Motorways (MW) serve as equivalents to Interstates or M-Routes. They are four-lane or more and have no at-grade intersections.

Primary Routes (PR) serve as equivalents to US Routes/primary State Routes or A-Routes. They are often national and can be two-four lanes wide. They also serve as trunk routes, and range from three-ten cities/towns.

Secondary Routes (SR) are equal to State Routes and primary B-Routes (NOT STREETS). They serve one-five cities/towns/hamlets.

Tertiary Routes (TR) are your County Routes or secondary B-Routes (still NOT STREETS). They are local routes and serve mostly small towns and hamlets. They may also provide access to lakes, forests, mountains, etc.

EDIT AGAIN: Tertiaries are no longer numbered. I’ve also fazed out city routes. See my post on the TR revamp for more info.

If a road is a MW, PR, or SR, it must be numbered! And don’t use trunk routes. Just don’t. Thanks all, Logan

I notice that in some places like Roantra and Khaiwoon, if you turn on TopoMap, the topography is shown in the typical “3D-ish” way a genuine topography map would be. How exactly do you do this? I’m finding it a little awkward to make larger mountain ranges out of “forest” (even thought it’s probably a lot easier to do it this way anyways…).

the guy that created Ingerland and the main historical western Uletha areas? What happened to him? Is he coming back to finish or write a history on this area, and does he know that his countries have been labeled some of the oldest on the map? He hasn’t made any edits in nearly 8 months.

Oi!

Where the heck are my outer Islands/Provinces - West & Southwest of Brythonn?

I checked-in today to discover my two outermost Island groupings; BOTH OF WHICH HAVE & SHOULD CONTINUE TO EXIST IN A NARRATIVE BELONGING TO AN ONLINE GROUP OF PEOPLE OUTSIDE OPENGEOFICTION; have simply disappeared!!!

Those islands are an integral part of a Project based upon this MAP, much in the same way that ‘ordinary’ OSM is integral to say, Wheelmap.org and others. Parts of my (or anyone else’s) works on OPENGEOFICTION should not be open to being ‘abused’ like this. Presumably the party responsible would now like to rewrite the ±200,000 word narrative we’ve put together involving those islands ~ in light of their sudden disappearance? That’s the workload I’ve now to face in order to ‘make good’ all the ramifications of my islands’ disappearences.

NOT HAPPY guys.

I am not one of the oldests users in OGF, but the new users may consider about the languages.

http://opengeofiction.net/wiki/index.php/List_of_languages

There is not “English” in OGF countries, but “Ingerish”, for example

But anyone is free to create your own language to the country.

Hello, now it’s been a while since I came here, and recently claimed my own territory UL016 after one week of my membership, is it possible to get my country’s name Belphenia to display on the world map?

Also, is it possible to add states and provinces within my territory, and display the names like the others?

Never mind. I was reading the link wrong.

I don’t see anything on http://opengeofiction.net/util/coastline_info.html or in a careful JOSM check to explain why the island that includes Commonia has flooded.

Does anyone have advice on building airports and seaports? Thanks!

Excuse me if anyone just ask about it before, but I am having some problems since yesterday using the JOSM I edit and create a lot of streets off-line, but I can not send it to the site,

-Comunication time with OSM server “http://opengeofiction.net/api/0.6” is over. Please try again-

I try again, and nothing… I did not change any configuration, nothing that could cause this What I can do to fix it??

Bruno

Aditional information: It starts to send… so, a long time ago, starts a “repetition” five times, and finally says -Comunication time with OSM server “http://opengeofiction.net/api/0.6” is over. Please try again-

Maybe because I am sending 5.172 objects???

The newly created SH 163, also known as the Monroe Expressway is designed to be a bypass of central Duranth. Please do not add intersections with SH 163 with anything less than a Secondary road, also, please keep intersections spaced a fair distance apart.

I’ve added the SPUR 163 (Parkland Rd) to connect to the Grainger Industrial Area.

Interchanges are not necessary through the Duranth area.

I made a simple connection to Kuhn-Labrie, feel free to edit.
