Welcome to the OGF community!

I think you should do the mapping part yourself, but I’ll give you a few tips for mapping in Commonia.

  • It is a poor, undeveloped country undergoing a civil war. Modern infrastructure is rare. Don’t overuse highways.

  • New users often think “oh look, an english town, a german town, boom I’m gonna place a spanish town here.” No. Please respect the surroundings.

  • Don’t make the city too large. Small, detailed villages are often nicer than huge grey areas with “population=5,000,000”, a few trunkroads and nothing else.

  • It’s a blue country. That means there’s going to be a lot of “quality level trash” mapping breaking all the rules above. There are people fixing it, but the process is slow and is often ruined by new unaware users.

  • Check Commonia’s page on our Wiki.

Hope this helps. Eklas from Drabantia
