New updates in Igwepir

Posted by tule00 on 7 November 2017 in English (English).

Most people who know me, know that my flagship city is Igwepir. Lately, I’ve added/changed some parts of it:

  • Bergtorf - made the street network more realistic
  • Flusstat - mapped the whole district from scratch
  • Neu-Igwepir - changed the streets around the railways

So what do you all think?

Well, I can’t always think of a name so quickly.

First of all, I think it’s a good start to develop suburbs by basing them on a historic centre, like an old village, as you did with Bergtorf. Having Neu-Igwepir based on a grid also makes sense historically, maybe some market squares would be nice there too. If Flussstadt is another city expansion from the time of industrialisation I think the general pattern is a good start as well, but maybe a very small historic core would fit in as well.

I find it really hard to give feedback on your mapping, because the general ideas of how the city is composed or what character the individual neighbourhoods have all seem to match up, yet it still doesn’t feel “right”. May I ask what software you use for your mapping? Maybe others find better words for what I mean.
