psyDelic Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I was about to make a post about this myself. I did a search for "map size" & nothing fruitful popped up but I find it hard to believe that this hasn't been discussed before.I have maps of 75x75 right now, but I haven't done any worthy testing. Frankly I want a seamless map. Anyone working on/with one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJMaxus Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Depends on what you're making. Before you make the map, think about the location. Is it a town? A village? How many people populate it? Is it just a road? A city?I'll usually make my small towns and villages around 50 - 70, larger towns around 70 - 90, and cities around 80 - 95 with multiple maps for different parts of the city.That's just me though.

DJMaxus Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 @psyDelic:> What do you do for the wild & trails to other towns, hunting?When I make a path running north or south, I'll make X much larger than Y, and vice versa for east and west. For a route open to exploration, you'll want to have the dimensions about 10 or 20 tiles apart from each other. I make routes around 50 - 70 as well. You'll want to place a few of them (2-5) in between towns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
