No mans land question

[allen-deckard]

Ok I’ve honestly looked everywhere google can take me. Yep 👍 I have now read the entire internet and can’t find the answer to my question so I’m asking this great community.

2 part question.
1 is no mans land a 2x or 4x map? Tried to do some measuring roughly and seems way bigger than a 2 x but what do I know I’m either way way off or it’s 4x.

2. And my second part is does anyone know how many acres one square is of the 60 squares?

Just started on the map seems really big but that might be because it’s open and an optical illusion.

I tried to plow 1/2 of a square as a test but to be honest I don’t think I did a very good job from what I added up seemed adding the acreage I plowed times 120 (only plowed half of one field) and added up the acres of wekler ranch and again unless I messed up royally no mans land was twice the size making it a 4x map but again I’m most likely wrong cause I did t think 4x was available on console and no mans land is available on console.


Anyway sorry for such a long winded question I just did t want anyone to think I didn’t at least try to figure it out on my own before running here to ask questions.

Search for a mod called "additional field info". It will give you the information you want just by walking into the field.

Have never played no man's land but a few of the maps I play on seem to be organized in sections and they are close to a real section which is a square mile and 640 acres.

@seadog .... Only problem with that, is that there are no fields (well, 1, but its really tiny). Its just one BIG open empty map. With a lot of trees.

Additional field info will tell you how big the total purchase lot is along with the field in it.

The areas marked by the grid are only so that you can buy one or more areas, they cost 85000 euros each. You then clear trees from your area, buy a tractor and plough and setting the plough to "allow to create fields", [pc keyboard Y] create your own fields whatever size and shape you want.

It is roughly a 2000X2000 map. (I think that is a 4X?)
Additional field info shows each land area was 17.54 acres in size, assuming it converts things properly. (Note it only shows up once you walk onto a field you created, won't show field area though, just the land area the field is in.)

To me it doesn't feel huge but perhaps that is because it is a more flatter map with a lot of open space, I know forestry ones with rougher terrain and a lot of trees feel outright huge.

The No mans land map is good if you want to start from nothing but yet be able to get into crops right away vs. typical forestry maps.

Does anyone know if you can sell lumber on this map? I am just starting out my property and cant find a sell point for logs.

The map has a placeable sawmill that you can buy, looks to be a building (for looks) and sell point trigger. I have not purchased it yet though to find out if it works.

It is under the misc. section for the placeables.

A standard vanilla map is 2000X2000.

Cool thanks.

the sawmill has a sell point button you walk up to press r. I love this map.

I'm not familiar with the sizes as I do not make mod maps, but it had that smaller map feel to it... Since I only play solo 4 - 8X maps would be the largest I go, anything bigger would be near pointless as it would be impossible to cover more than 1/2 the map in a given crop round.

Now, did the sizes get bigger since earlier versions of FS for the standard maps? I think they did but not sure. Would have to install FS 13 to find out.

Also good to hear the included sell point works.
