Maps do not work on start from scratch

Post by Frick »

I do not know what Giants check when they include maps in the mods, but some of them do not work with "start from scratch" because I have machines. One example is the map "this is Ireland".
Why is it so?

The map maker decides what is and isn't included in the different starting options. If he prefers so, he can make it so that you start with buildings and machinery even on start from scratch.

Yeah the maps not broken but you can easily get on it. Otherwise you could sell your stuff and change the settings to make it harder

Well, for me that is not the same thing
And it certanly does not fit the description for "start from scratch"
But I can live without playing those maps if the maker decides to do them that way, there are other great maps out there that allows me to play the way I want

Then go for it, no one is forcing you to play the maps :)

I, on a personal note, much prefer having multiple yards on the map prebuilt, then you have to work up to buying those different yards as you become more successful.

Or just sell the machinery and make the money go away. Easy enough to find something to lease a few times to waste money.

I would love to be able to build a good farm yard, but the peaceable system is totally busted so there is no point, especially on smaller maps I just play on new farmer and adjust the settings.

Exactly this, especially for consoles. Impossible to create tight yards on smaller maps

The way I see it, the modder put a lot of effort into the yards, so I'd play it how it's intended - nothing wrong if you choose otherwise, but that's my thoughts. :)

I like to build my own yard as well. This is why I enjoy the Pacific Southwest map so much. However, Lone Oak is prebuilt and is actually quite enjoyable IMHO.
