Should this really be here? I was looking around history when I found it. In a do not edit and the person who did it had no other edits made.

I’m currently mapping a commercial area downtown and would love to see restaurants that represent different cultures. However, despite some detailed description of cuisines of several countries (like Kojo), there is just a general lack of idea of what people in each country eat.

I’m not encouraging overwikification here - As this is a necessity for commercial development - so, if you have an idea, describe your cuisine in just a few sentences, so that I - and possibly others on the same path - would get an idea of what restaurants to put, instead of just fast food, y’kno.

I looked at some in my city and one of them is marked under commercial and the other one isn’t. I’m quite confused which landuse fits with a Recreational Complex.

HI fellow mappers,

This is not a post to criticize anything. I just want to congratulate everyone on what you have done. If you have not already, just take a second to look and see what you made. It is a really good feeling to see what you have made and what it looks like! Anyways, keep mapping and making this world better and more detailed(remember - details matter!).

Regards, oof boi

Hi,

while waiting for my own territory I started working on a small part of Mecyna. I used it primarily to work on my JOSM skills (there is a big difference between using JOSM for mapping satellite images in OSM and using it when you have to set scales etc in OGF). But I find it difficult to proceed as Mecyna has a lot of unfinished towns, roads going nowhere and making no sense, Mecyna is missing a good topography layout, …. I don’t want to destroy other peoples work but what is already on the map limits what I can do.

Therefore my question: are there any suggestions for ‘open’ or collaborative regions to work on? I would like to map in European style and prefer a doable small city + rural region over a big city. Any suggestions are appreciated so that I can practice a little before getting my own region.

Hello! New user here! I have extended some existing highways into a blank space, and laid out the primary highways and some new rail lines for a small city (Renfield). I am hoping not to interfere with anyone else’s projects, so I have not altered any existing towns (with the exception of the small town of Bromsburg, and the only edit I did there was to put in a bus station on an already existing street, since this town is the closest existing settlement to the site of Renfield. I left plenty of space between my other edits and Bromsburg. I established a small village called Bromsburg Junction where the road to Bromsburg ended confusingly at a railroad. There is also a highway at this junction now, which wiggles along following the railroad, as highways often do, to Renfield.) There was absolutely nothing else within miles of Renfield, so, again, hoping not to interfere.

(Location shown is the center of Renfield.)

I finally requested a territory while following the little instructions per request.

…aaaand obviously it had to be reserved. I checked just now. R.I.P.. All the other territories available are tiny and you can barely do anything with them.

Made for the town of Bonnatale, the island would serve that town but it currently is serving nothing. I don’t know if I entered the id wrong or something but I can’t see the island in its place outside of the 5 mi, 10 km view or it just disappears. I’m scared to start editing on the island in-case the edits them selves disappear after a certain distance, but I just don’t know what else to do.

hola, Saludos desde México.

Quisiera saber cuál es la Ciudad más grande de OGF para visitarla y observar como esta construida, tengo un proyecto de Ciudad de Barranquillo en Rhododactilya y quisiera ver más, para ver que debo de construir más.

Hello greetings from Mexico.

I would like to know which is the largest city of OGF to visit and see how it is built, I have a project of Barranquillo City in Rhododactilya and I would like to see more, to see what I should build more.

Hello everyone,

Recently I have been working a bit on the main railway station in Neu-Erneerik. It is meant to be the railway hub of the west coast of Midistland, and the west end of the Neu-Erneerik–Bend railway section, with regular train and high speed (Alta Velocidad) connections to Bend main railway station.

What I intend to do is add more crossover tracks, a railyard/service area in between the station and Bendstraße, and finish the basic railway network in the city.

Is it a good station for the second-largest city in the country?

Is it good for high-speed railways?

I’d like to hear your thoughts.

Happy mapping!

Had a crash on the PC which wiped out my JOSM settings. Managed to get most things back to the way I had them, with one exception: when I ask to download an area, I get a real-life map (of somewhere in Russia). The FAQ gives an indication, but that does not work. It’s no great problem, but a little hint would come in useful.

Thanks.

Today out of nowhere, instead of finishing up some of my routes that needs attention, or finishing up the road networks in Ykphane, I moved further north to work on the large island that sits in the North of Aracadiana. For one I had no intention of working on the island until I move one of my major highways up there, but I decided to start working on it. Further-more I am beginning to lay out some of the major roads that will soon be a basis of Corona and Madansky (Both areas will occupy the northern half but not yet existing). But I have a question for y’all to decide upon, Should I continue on my work in the South, or finish the island and connect it to the already existing infrastructure? But trust me there isn’t much there to connect to so that’s why this question is important, But otherwise thank y’all very much in advance and Happy Mapping!

Hi there guys! Last year I started working in a London-like city by taking advantage of some nice river features I saw around those coordinates, north-west of Gobras City.

https://opengeofiction.net/#map=16/21.0096/86.1431

I left it abandoned and I’ve returned for a bit, but I think I am currently overwhelmed and I definitely made many noobie mistakes, such as the ambition of creating a gargantuan urban area, completely not fitting the overall Gobrassanya style, etc.

A bit of backstory: My previous edit -and the first thing I made in Opengeofiction was Minato in Rhododactylia:

https://opengeofiction.net/#map=13/-10.7621/170.6501

(Disregard the weird harbor/pier shapes, it was only an experiment and I don’t know how to use JOSM -or even install it, it’s like rocket science for me- and this affects a lot the quality of any bigger shape I’d like to create)

After that I requested a territory but again it looks like a lot of work -It is my fault in any case, maybe I don’t have enough time or dedication for this task- and they told me I was using real life names, though many people use them and I think most of my names were more or less original by that time (after that I may have used more real life names as I gave up the idea of getting a territory-. So I finally found that location in Gobrassanya.

The good thing is that the region looks super cool and active. The bad thing: me. I am afraid that I am destroying the quality of the Gobras City surrounding with this massive London like city which style doesn’t really fit the tropical - hi-tech style of the country.

I absolutely love OGF and its fun but I have a conflict because it is too serious/professional for me at the same time: I don’t want to disturb the work of other people (and Gobras City is a very professional collaborative project) but I am also afraid that the criticism (that I want to receive with this post in any way, to be honest) will make me finally leave the site.

Hello OGF community,

Can somebody with JOSM please revert changeset 726734 please? Somebody added a massive motorway right down the spine of Commonia that definitely vandalizes several towns such as Feilerville and Colbrook. The motorway that was mapped was done so without the thinking of how it logistically affected the areas it passed through, as most of the motorway was built over surface roads with at-grade intersections and such.

I would do this myself, but I don’t have JOSM, and piecing the old highways back together would be too hard due to the motorway being built in ONE MASSIVE SEGMENT FOR HUNDREDS OF KILOMETERS.

I do not think the user had any ill-intention at all. Rather, I think the user may just have simply not been familiar with the site rules and with the geography of the area the motorway passed through.

Thank you to everyone and happy mapping,

I’m editing my county’s wiki page to look somewhat similar to my county’s real life page (different names obviously) and there is a “radio” section. Does FSA/AR120 have a callsign system similar to that of the US? I’m sorry if I should do it some other way, but this is what came to mind first.

Hello my OGF people,

I just figured out how to use JOSM (with PicLayer) well, hopefully. Take a look at my new city layout and let me know how I did.

I’m talking like the names (like how Ingerish is the British), but what about the Spaniards and French? Scandinavian, German and Russian? African-American too I guess. Anyone know the names for these or do we only truly know the Ingerish?

Lai’uo’wea is VaAnu’s Most Populated and Highest Town of Cygagon. : I’m still working on the accomodation I’m not doing houses I may be adding to the amount of parks. I haven’t finished adding beaches

Also , is it allowed to have names of non-famous people? Otherwise it’s extremely hard to be creative.

*DON’T COMMENT ON THE ROAD NAMES *- it helps me map.

It’s finally the moment. It’s time for Adaria to open to the outside world and have visible relations with the outside world.

I have opened a wiki page in order to organize the embassies located in the Embassy Avenue, close to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For now there are 40 slots for embassies, but if they end up being too few I’ll consider expanding the area or maybe finding another site to place embassies, maybe in a more dispersed manner. I’ll also be placing embassies myself abroad as things develop.

Happy Mapping,

Martinawa

What’s the best option for a regional organization in Archanta?
