Trading routes, roads, and rails of TSP |
I can't believe we don't have this yet. Can I be the one who's making the trading routes?

Oh, shush, Henn. If Hammerstar wants to spend the amount of time it'll take to keep this updated, then I don't see why not.

I think it seems like a good idea.
The roads, rails and trading routes are based off from international developments. If we really did make the international highway thing, I'd be drawing it in the latest map.

So, this is what I've come up with.
The maps of TSP made into like this. [Image: lJHULHI.png] The legend: Magenta: Air Cargo Orange: Roads Blue: Railroads What do you think I should improve?

I'd suggest adding more character to the lines. Make the Magenta lines be straight lines, and keep in mind the terrain when making the Orange and Blue lines. Not all roads and railroads are going to be completely straight, and will occasionally have a bend or curve in them. However there needs to be a sense of randomness involved, enough that people don't see a set pattern in how often the roads curve or how long the railroad bends are.
Make sense?
I understand everything you said until randomness. What do you mean by that?

Can I be the one who's making the trading routes? I agree it can be useful for RP. However, in such case it would be crucial to have the nations ask you what kind of roads they want (land/air/sea), and even what cities would be involved midway. Also, you could work together with the requesting nations in regards of the roads planning. (07-06-2015, 01:56 PM)Hammerstar Wrote: I understand everything you said until randomness. What do you mean by that? I guess he meant following up the maps' topography sometimes, so the roads don't become mere straight lines. |
