Forum:Request help/Update to mapping of Exintor

Forums → Request help or feedback → Request help/Update to mapping of Exintor

I have tried to upgrade my mapping for more realism and even begun use of JOSM. I feel like my mapping is now good enough in order for it to be migrated into Archanta. Does anyone have any suggestions for Exintor and upgrading it, or do you think I'm ready to move on? If I need to upgrade realism much more than already done, please give specific suggestions. (Yes, I'm still to develop some of my provinces, and I do have some unorganised territory, but I'm currently working on other projects and cities, like Lotus City and Kumplas.)

Your motorway network is too large, nonsensical, and is overall poorly designed and mapped (e.g. the northern shore of Lake Breezer). Your urban street grids are similarly not well planned or executed, with irregular, illogical shapes and sizes, like kilometer-long blocks in Laketown. Your tram networks defy logic and realism, everywhere they exist but specifically in Monarchyaña and Lotus City. Your river network, sparse as it may be, is also poorly done, with rivers crossing mountain ranges in the far south and the Prishyerzo River doing unnatural things in terms of splitting into downstream branches, and likewise whatever’s happening with the Morris River west of Malstirrovile defies all logic.

We have some helpful wiki pages in the Help namespace that I recommend you review and consider implementing to improve the quality of your mapping. It’s clear that you’re having fun mapping and I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself, but at this point I do not think you’re ready for a standalone nation in Archanta. -TheMayor (talk) 13:21, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm going to fix Laketown (I forgot to add some streets). I really need some more feedback on the train network, i.e., what should I fix? The network is still in progress, and I've yet to add extra details. Thanks for the feedback on the rivers, I'm going to delete the Chatturbo river and remove the confluence of the rivers, and remove that weird branch on the Prishyerzo River. Likewise, besides the Northern shore of Lake Breezer, what should I fix on the motorway network? (EX3 and EX1 will merge) My inspiration for the network kind-of comes from the American Interstate. In addition, I'm definitely going to fix a lot of my much older mapping, which really has too many problems. Lastly, I got my inspiration for the rivers crossing mountains in the South from the Chinese section of the Bhramaputra River, which crosses the Himalayas. (But is my confluence realistic if I were to remove the Chatturbo River? The Wełna and Nielba rivers in Poland cross without mixing.) Eshaan011 (talk) 15:10, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
