[QUOTE=Outcast_X]So my question is, does anyone care if I finish my map or not? I'll finish it I just want to know at least one person will play it.[/QUOTE]
I'll gladly reinstall the game just to try your map, I always wanted a big sandbox to play in.

Awesome. So I CAN have it done by the end of this week it just won't have much scripting. If you wait till a unknown date(I'm guessing next week) I can have traders, islands exploding. You know, cool stuff. What'll it be?

Cool stuff is cool.
My grape plantation.

I'm probably just going to replant those grapes after they've all spawned. It originally started off with only 6 vines, but then I just planted all the grapes from that one harvest.

If this tree wasn't in the way, that would have been a great picture of my camp from a top down view. Oh well, at least you can still see most of it.
I've already beaten Adventure mode, I just like to play on the first level because everything is where I know it to be. Random island is still pretty fun, but I could never find the second flint on the extremely huge island setting.

A big map i made some time ago.
May lag if you have a somewhat old computer, like me.
Contains lots of islands, yet no sharks.

Yuck. You didn't place any unit spawns so once they player kills the animals on the map there won't be anymore. A diary at the beginning to tell you what the hell is going on would be useful. It looks like everything was randomly placed, I know it's not but you spend no time fiddling with the props to make them fit in. I could go on for quite a bit longer. Nice try, but just doesn't cut it. Look at some of the adventure maps to get an idea of what to/not do. Seeing this map reminded me to finish my own map. Keep trying, the land looks fine, it's the bad object and unit placement that ruined it.

I'm going to fill a large part of the map left with this type of jungle:

This will fill about 10-15% of total landspace on the map so I want to get it right. Any ideas to make it look better?

Yeah, i know about the unit spawns, I were just too lazy to actually add the units myself. The rest, is "handmade".
This game is fucking awesome.
Add some small lakes with drinkable water, and lots of bushes.

Broke my edit :(

Is your map done soon?
Seems like an interesting map to play.

It'll be done when it's done. I only can work on it when I get inspiration.

You need some rocks, some water too. If it's a jungle it should be a little marshy, don't you think? Also what about hemp? I love making hemp farms :)

Rocks make it look too friendly, and I plan to have water once I finish mapping it. There's one hemp plant on the map for you to find, it's not out of the way just slightly hidden.

Ah I found it. Well the trees kind of look lined up too, maybe some hills or grass? Well not grass, but like bushes and stuff. honestly it's pretty much trees and ferns with flat ground. Since your adding water I can't suggest much else. It will look more lively with birds, maybe you can add a river when you add water instead of just pools.
Running out of ideas.

I'd love to make a lake it's just I'm only putting water rocks on the map so players have to build wells. If it gets annoying I'll put some fountains in.
I know how that is, making a well is... eh... Just make the fountains not regenerate (Not the sparking ones) instead. I always play on huge hard maps because it has the most satisfaction when you make a nice camp with tons of walls. Most of the time you don't die of thirst if you plan carefully or get a decent map, you die because you wake up and there's a raptor on your ass.

That's what I meant. I'm placing water rocks just not fountains.
Someone post so I can bump when I finish.

Will post because requested.
You mentioned something about traders, can you put some in with scripting? That'd be awesome.

Wait, do you have the map?
[QUOTE=Mango]Wait, do you have the map?[/QUOTE]
Nope. this is just a quick look at his picture.
I'll give it a go
Why the hell can't I plant anything? Using seeds in my hand says I need to use it on the ground. Help? Anyone?
Facepunch use to be big on this game a few months back. A group of us had quite a few custom extremely large maps and even a zombie mod that was never finished.

The large maps never went anywhere, and those that did were randomly generated piles of crap.
Fun, but when you reaize that you do everything by holding down mouse button 1 and waiting, it gets old. Fast.
I was on the first island, did everything needed to move on to the 2nd one, went to go sleep before I went on to the 2nd, woke up to a lion eating my face. Didn't save. Had to restart.

Not mine. I actually took time to build shit.

Is it done?
How big is it?
And do you have a link for it?
I wish you could disable the hunger and what-not.
I know it's a key part of the game, but sometimes it gets kind of annoying when I have to eat all my food after sleeping.

That was months ago. You may be able to check the FP archives, but I don't think I ever posted it here.
