While still building up the rural areas of Antigo, I need this question so at least I cam design nice farms by myself. (Honestly there should be a guide on this; this is very important.)

Hey Guys,

Hope everybody is doing great!

I just had the idea of founding an insta accoubt for OGF. I mean that what a lot of you doing is real art! And I think it would be great to share this with others out of OGF.

Ofc someone has to dothe whole work to lead that Account. But Im also thinking that something like this would be worth the work and that we definitely will find somebody which would do that.

Just an Idea…

Marry Christmas and happy discussions

Hi, everyone, I was editing on the map when I saw that when I was tracing a line, it did not appear, and when I was done with my approximate vision of the line, it was all over the map. Is there something wrong with my computer? Or is there something wrong. with the map/program?

-Sincerely, iiEarth

I have made a little region in this Commonia called San Marcos, inside of Tintaille region.

Well, Tintaille is not a great region, and there are hardly any cities, so I ask you all to help me creating cities around San Marcos.

I have created San Marcos with the idea of making a “little special region” in Commonia, where the taxes might be lower, there are different laws… You know, like a special region in countries like China (Hong Kong and Macao) and Sweden (Äland islands).

Thank you to everybody if you help me

Bye

(Sorry if I have made mistakes, I’m already learing English!)

7.2 earthquake hit where I live (IRL, not on OpenGeofiction), so I probably won’t be on for a while.

Commonia’s land area relation has all its members accidentally removed two months ago.

Could someone fix this relation for Commonia?

Thanks in advance,

hello there

ok so here i’ve got a mix of palace-castle (more like a palace than like a castle) and I really like how it looks! but… I made a weird mess by doing it TOO BIG. I’d love that there was a way that it could be copied and pasted but less bigger…

Anyway if there was a method, it’d be impossible for me, as I map on iD and can’t get JOSM because I don’t have a computer… So if someone knows how to help me, I’d give permission and I’d be so pleased!

I made a template to count inhabitants of my country based on mapping, but it can be used by everybody:

• add to each residential building the key “ogf:count” with the value “inh_?_” (many values between 1 and 250 inhabitants are available)

• use the template {{Count population

  area = name of the country}} in the wiki

• more can be read in the wiki

so I was looking at my cities till i noticed that people deleting and changing Them!!!! please stop! cities : Banlo, Actertoin(lost)

Something’s gone wrong when I try to save my edits. It gives me the text box to describe my change, but it doesn’t give me the option to actually save it. Nothing really seems to be wrong that I can notice, the edits that I haven’t uploaded are on my screen and my internet seems fine. Is there anyone who knows how to fix this?

Hi,

I have been playing around praticing different mapping skills on Läxland. Now it’s probably time to decide how Läxland should look like geographically.

I have always loved lakes, so I am thinking of a lake-land-landscape like one in Finland with Saimaa lake which could be fun to map, but perhaps doesn’t suit with my location geografically.

Or a lake to the south like Lake Lagoda in Russia formed by continetal glacier or was a part of a primitive sea.

What do you think i should go for to be realistic, should i stick to large areas of forest, rivers and bog?

The “Zalghira Space Center” in Gardensa is now fully mapped. I hope you think it’s good, otherwise I can correct anything. As I said in a previous post, the Republic of Gardensa is small, and so the Space Center (also because of its tropic-equatorial position, suitable for the orbits of the rockets) hosts missions from other countries. Then, who among you is interested and think that its country can benefit from it, please let me know, so I’ll take it into account when I update the Wiki. Thanks eleinads

I am now at a stage of mapping the rural areas outside Ellmouth. Is there anything I am missing or could improve my mapping? I am not particularly experienced in rural mapping.

Does anyone have a list of special amenities such as sewage disposals, landfills and power transformers I should consider putting in? For most of my mapping I’ve operated on a basis of ‘if I haven’t mapped it yet it must be somewhere else’. I’m running out of the ‘somewhere else’ space now.

Thanks!

Hi!

As I’m working on the history of Nordurland, I wondered about some assumptions I’ve made about the period of the totalitarian dictatorship which the country went through. I imagined that Nordurland used the most possible amount of its GDP for military purposes - so much that it was close to financial breakdown after 35 years, with a poor and undereducated population, strictly monitored by the security service.

Now I would like to ask for your opinion: how much would this be for a nation that big, quite rich in resources (oil, coal, uranium), probably around 20’000’000 to 50’000’000 people, with ridicculously large military forces. I assumed around 50% GDP. But could it be more? Or is this even too much?

I ve saw a project called f4 that mainly consists in 3D building rendering wich looks very cool specially for that shadows. Also stjurs diary about skeptchup

Just imagine how beatiful will be to see cities like Odrava, Gobras, Abralona, Beregorod, Antigo, Baradin, Vodeo, Khaiwoon, etc. Instead of being plain 2D, it will be 3D.

Could one day can have that 3D building here in opengeofiction?

-Jesús Antonio

I am noticing that on the rendered map, roads are rendered as really thick lines, which makes complicated intersections in cities look pretty ugly unless you reaaally zoom in on them. For example, I am working on this area

You cannot really even see all the roads as separate roads although the two motorway links (in between the tunnels) to the west of the square are actually drawn 10 meters apart. To the east of the square it is even more of a mess…

Since we create OGF maps for enjoyment and aesthetic beaty, my question is: How do you deal with this?

Have I drawn this way too small? Or should I just ignore it?

I have to ask a question of general interest.

Are you able to tell me which and how many are the space centers in OGF? By “spatial centers” I mean those of great dimensions and global interest like, in RW, the Kennedy Space Center (Florida), Bayqoñyr (Kazakhstan), Kourou (Guyana) and Jiquan (China).

I ask this because my intention is to insert one in the map of the Republic of Gardensa. This is also because it is a territory suitable for this, because of its tropic-equatorial position.

The candidate place is in the eastern flat land between the Carminio Lake, the Western Rain Forest and the sea, here. Obvioustly I can modify the nearest towns and infrastructures.

However, before mapping it, I have to involve all you, because a launch base is not just for one country and, for reasons of real likelihood, there must not be too many in OGF. If there were already several, I would not put mine.

Moreover, since the Republic of Gardensa is small (even if it has a large city, Giliarca), it is clear that it would be a base that hosts space launches on behalf of other countries (this would be very important for the budget of the Republic of Gardensa).

So, short question: how many (and which) space centers or launch bases are already present in OGF? If I put one in Gardensa, it would alter some balance?

Thank you!

Hey guys,

Big news out of Aludres: We have a writing system for the Everian Language! How exciting!

Anyways, this is a question geared toward those REALLY talented with computers: If I wanted to somehow type my writing system, how could I create the glyphs to do so? I think this is something that could very much help move my country along!

Cheers, Geoboi

Here’s the thing: If I could, I’d go back in time, slap myself in the face, and say, “Don’t name your country Peaceland.” The name feels unrealistic, and it was more based on a history I scrapped a while ago. I’ve considered changing the name, but my worry is that my country will then feel like a completely different country from the one I’ve been working on for about a year. I also feel like I could make the name work somehow, but that may just be unnecessary work, especially since a name is based on history; not the other way around. Should I change the name?
