hi guys and gals I made a small town on Harca and by small I mean the roads were 3ft away from each other so I made a new town near driambdara I think it is pretty good still a little bit small but that’s only the beginning of the place there is a piece of land there for sale if anybody wants it, I have some boat yards and some other stuff I am planning on useing the entire shoreline of the Joe river

Hi, Swissmapping.
I love the enthusiasm. There are some good things here: the spacing in the southern cluster between streets is logical, and the over-all size is nice and compact. Small towns are a wonderful thing. The bridges over the water are not as realistic, given that the town is small and there’s nothing around it. It’d be really expensive to have those connections.
The biggest issue, however, is that you mapped in a green territory you don’t own (controlled by admin) and not a blue territory. Mapping outside a controlled territory without permission is considered vandalism. I’d suggest moving into nearby Mecyna (just to the northwest of where you’re at). It’s a great place for people starting out. I started out there, in fact! If you’d like me to move your work there for you and save the time, I’d be happy to do that.

Is Walentia a lost country?

Swissmapping, I have moved your work to the island south of Silversea you requested. I also did a little touch up on some things to help you out: I resized the naval base and runways to something more realistic. They were too small. The naval base is still likely a bit small, but it could suffice for a small outpost. Another thing to think about would be that you have some roads going through the middle of buildings. Also, putting nodes at intersections is a good idea, too, if you want to eventually use the mapping program to generate directions! That can be a fun way to play around with things and see how you may develop infrastructure.
Let me know if there is anything else I can do.

A lost country is a country which has been abandoned by a user long time ago and ‘aquire by admins after the user has not been active for a loong time.
Anyway, that is not so important. Hope to see more mapping soon!
