Okay so this is a bit of a stretch, but I need help finishing Ykphane in the lines of Zoning and creating a capital district of the city. Honestly, I would also like help with a larger project that is the coast line of Aracadiana. I’m half tempted to open up my nation to more mappers but I also am scared of losing progress. So if anyone is interested in these following projects please message me:

  • Ykphane (Capital District )
  • H5, H5W, H6, H10
  • Districts/Oblasts
  • Coast Line (More Islands)
  • Villages along Route 41 (Islands)
  • H49 Corridor
  • H7 Northern Terminus near Emedekee Basin
  • Route 27 Removal
  • Route 88 Removal
  • Route 73 / H7 Interchange Removal

…

If you couldn’t tell by the list, I have trouble finishing projects.

Bonnatale Island, Arcacadina

Posted by TheAquaBarron on 3 June 2019 in English.

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.

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!

So revisiting my old project, I found something that I didn’t like to see. In-spite of me calling off the Mostock Metro Project, I found it somewhat disturbing that Hwy 3073 was removed from Turnpike 98 to Mostock Freeway (Now former 3073 – into Slavutych). 3073 was the one thing that defined the grid of Mostock, a city built off of 3073, Hwy 999 was meant to act as an inner city freeway, and Hwy 76N was going to serve the northern suburbs until the project was canceled. If I have to I will return to Commonia to restore the history of Mostock and Slavutych that has been deleted and/or referenced. This was also notated as the Hybrid Springs area in Watamak. I also noticed that much of the was going to be neighborhood of Kremastre’s road network was also deleted (At the time of cancellation, 3 roads.) If it concerns me most was that the gap that now has to fill 3073’s spot, but keep in mind for whoever is going through removing most of what defined Mostock, That 3073 was the start. It is obvious in Mostock alone that the grid was built around 3073. There was also going to be suburbs north of the lake which would have made the Mostock City area larger than what it actually became. Slavutych was to be meant as smaller suburb but eventually became a city with-in it’s own. For further reference, please message me if you’re the one “Cleaning Up” the area before you remove something that has history to it… no hate, but thank you in advance.

Names of Places and Roads.

Posted by TheAquaBarron on 12 March 2019 in English.
  Before I get started the Mostock Area Project just west of Hybrid Springs has been both fun and stressful.  I know what shape I want  these areas to be but I literally struggle with naming areas and roads. And yes, I have resorted to the real world for help. 
 One of the biggest rules of Opengeofiction is to always have a creative name, but I struggle in that department. I have always liked designing maps that probably would never come to life but at that stage I could imagine the name of roads and what the shield would look like, But recently it has all been coming to a halt. And here's a few examples of the real world coming to my OGF mapping.

Route A1A, Mostock, Watamak, Commonia: Surrey St. In real life, Surrey St serves as a spur route to LA 728 in Lafayette, LA.

Route 339, Loxley, Watamak, Commonia: Chemin Agreadable RD. In real life, Chemin Agreadable serves as the SPUR Route for LA 339 in Youngsville, LA.

Route 99, Slavuytch, Watamak, Commonia: Caffery St. Otherwise in the real world as Ambassador Caffery PKWY (LA 3073) in Lafayette Parish, LA.

Route 89E and onward, Mostock and Slavuytch, Watamak, Commonia: Kaliste Saloom Rd. Serves as unsigned LA 3095 in Lafayette, LA.

Loxely: Name based off of Loxely, Alabama. Slavutych: Name based off of Slavuytch, Kyiv Oblast, Ukraine. Volga: River in Russia. Duga: Radar in the Chernobyl Zone……

I could go on and on, but the list would be the longest thing ever. If you have any comments, Go right ahead, I am open to criticism and we are all friends here….

21.965, 149.7196 …. These are the cords for the area, Enjoy the orderly chaos that is this region
