Description
A map for the builders.

A quick description of this map:
• Designed with large cities in mind. Plenty of flat building space for easy building! See the end of the screenshots for a heightmap.
• Pre-existing networking kept at minimum to have that sandbox feeling.
• Room to expand the existing highways. Up to 5 lane highways fit without clipping, the existing intersection can be expanded by a few lanes as well.
• Just 285K trees, only slightly exceeding the vanilla limit.
• Designed to look great from a distance. Not very closely detailed to preserve performance and playability. Do your own detailing at whatever level you like!
• All transportation connections present.
• All resources present, ore a bit scarce though.
• As usual, I also kept the required items list as small as possible to leave room to choose your own assets.
• If you play this "vanilla", starting with just the first plot of land, I recommend using water towers for your water supply until you unlock the other side of the bay to avoid waste problems. The use of water towers is recommended also due to the shallow coastline at the start square, which could cause issues (too low water level for pumps to function) if a lot of water is being drawn from the spot.

Mods used in screenshots:
LUT: Relight Average
Daylight Classic (all to classic)
Clouds & Fog Toggler (disable clouds and edge fog)

The laviante map theme works extremely well with multiple LUTs, hence I encourage you to test around with any LUTs you have to find out which one suits your taste best!

Other recommended mods:
81 Tiles. 25 tiles covers most of the map too. Even with just the vanilla 9 tiles you should be fine too regarding building space.

This map was a quick project for a city of my own, I spent only a day (~6 hours) to create it.

If you come across any bugs / issues, please let me know down in the comments. I'll do my best to make up time to patch up any possible errors! Also feel free to post any questions, critique, compliments, whatever you want to!

I'd check any network related mods you might be using and see if there are any incompatibility issues. I'd also check the unlimited trees mod: some have reported that the newest version (not the one listed) works on old maps, whereas some maps require the older version (the one listed as a requirement) of the mod to be used. I've not tested this myself so unfortunately I don't have any further information about that. The trees mod shouldn't affect roads though, but with Cities Skylines you never know. I hope this helps.

Yes! I like the maps to have minimal networking, as it gives more freedom to the builder and doesn't sort of lock you into a predetermined shape for the city and like you said, allows for a more unique city. Super glad to hear you think alike. Thanks for commenting, it's always a pleasure :) Have fun building!

Thank you for not going overboard with road networks. So many beautiful maps in the workshop and nearly all of them have so many highways and secondary roads that steals all the fun from building a unique city unless you spend hours deleting networks and tidying up the terrain.

Yeah, no problem, I understand!

@kaaskipnugget,
Unfortunately no, as the map is 3 years old, the brush has been lost. Reflecting back on it, I should've put the brushes used on all my maps into the descriptions as it's a really useful tool to alter the map more to your liking by painting more forestry, and having the same mix is vital to have a seamless look. I will make sure to include any and all brush settings in my future work. Glad to hear you like the map :)

Do you have the forest brush settings for us??? Love the map btw!

The outside connections work for me, as well as everything else has worked well for now :) This is my first map I've downloaded/that isn't from the game or packs. Even my laptop can run it
