I do not think you get new friends, if you delete this shipping-lines. Yes - like Gibraltar this strait is heavy busy. A lot of OGF-user here draw its lines. And to draw such line, it needs some work.

The second is, that there are works in progress, to unitify parallel lines to one “main” shipping line. So please wait, til this work is done.

And third: A plan was, to show this lines only in the histor-style and not in the standard-style. In the standard-style only the “real” ferry-line should be to see. But to do so, there is more changings in the software necessary as only in the style-files. So please be patient.

Why not read [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation] ?

As Toadwart wrote: It is a difference, if someone maps without asking others or if someone ask in the forum or diary for feedback. If someone ask for feedback it can be possible, that the feedback is realistic - means, that the comment declare clear heavy mistakes (as too small curves at railways, to much motorways, spaghetti-junctions, no rectangled houses and other beginner mistakes). I think, in OGF are many examples of better mapping and a beginner can see, what is important, before asking for feedback.

Sure you can use friendly words - but why not say, what is wrong?

Not bad at all. But why no shops, no restaurants, bars, cafés? This you can add to your town.

To edit you have to catch a node of the line. May be at this straight line nodes are only at the end of this line, so please look there.

You will tell me seagoing ships go this long and winding river up to Uleroland?

HMM - why should any seagoing ship use this border strip? There is no port at the end as target. So I think - what do this 40 ships a day there? Sightseeing?

Whow - pretty railway curves …. [https://opengeofiction.net/#map=19/-26.85338/145.92299]

Yes, the romantic pirates … Seemed to me more realistic, one seapower in the near sails with some ships to the islands and take it over

But this bridge is real [https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/31.2102/121.4986] - I drive about with a bus. And here [https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/31.22986/121.47244] you have a model of the town 1:1000 - where you can identify all houses (so your hotel etc.)

By building the canal. I was the first autor in this area. So I take the freedom to delete some rails I draw years ago to give Phoenix a better chance to devellop. I think, most of the town can be deleted, but there are some old embassies direct at the river, which should survive.

What also should be deleted are the silly circles in Guntrum- who ever has drawn them.

Sure Phoenix / Arizona is a real-life name. But named by an common mythologican bird. So here is not important Phoenix / Arizona, but the mythological bird. This name can be used everywhere and I think, on real earth are 1000 places named Phoenix. It is a trivial name like “Prettybeach” or “Ashhill”

Phoenix is a common name for a special bird and has its special meaning, to stay up and fly away after burning as a sign of hope. Plays a great role in the Harry Potter story, as you know.

So Phoenix / Arizona is not the original of this name, but only one of many towns and places carry this name of hope. Therefore I think Phoenix / Mecyna can behold the name.

Yes - in Mecyna is a lot of unrealistic mapping, so good luck.

** But please do not change the Canal of Mecyna as important seaway-connection. **

And what about a Ferry from Prood Eran to Bric Treuh with a streetcar-connection at both sides? (And yes, I have seen the Butallas-Street - thanks)

Well - Bremen has some more as 5 streetcar-lines, as I remember. But for Rasmus town a strretcar-net seemes the better soloution as this two subway-lines.

@ Zhenkang = that means, that “spur” shall announce a smaller gauge. The lines on the map are thick only few pixel (or parts of a pixel) - so I think, this 1.000-spur tracks must be very thin, to see a difference to the normal spur. And I am not sure, that the renderer will take a tag like “spur=1000” or “spur=1435” from the database. In other words: Few to see, but a lot of work to realize it not only in the style itself, but in the background also. But sure, theoretical it is possible.

You can differ between “main” (in red), “local” (in green - means commuter in english) and “freight” (in sierra.brown), if you tag this as service=xxxx additional to railway=rail. Also there are the other usual service tags possible as spur, siding etc. If you tag no additional main, local or freight, your railway will appear in the usual gray of the standard-style. Please see [https://wiki.opengeofiction.net/wiki/index.php/OGF:Histor-style#Tagging_List]

There is a bug with the colours in the moment, if your rails are in a tunnel - I work at this,

Your town-center looks fine. A lot of details.

But what about this subway-loop of 35 m? Good luck! [https://opengeofiction.net/#map=17/51.79048/129.48634].

@ iiEarth: Hmm, how many bus-lines you will have in your town? This system of coloured lines is state of the art 1870. I do not think, this can be a good soloution for today (sorry to Washington and its subway system).

@ austinhuang: Let me try with “route”, but this needs some time.
