Description
^^ Get it all done in one ^^

Disclaimer: I have not had the time to thoroughly test this map properly, so please feel free to give feedback if you decide to give it a try, so that I may update it when I return home from holidays :)

Description: Kangaroo Valley is one of 7 fully enclosed valleys in the world seated between Sydney, the South Coast, and the Southern Highlands. It is an idyllic location, with a small town and limited infrastructure, and funny enough, don't rely on the 'Kangaroo' part of the name, if you ever visit here there's close to nothing related to kangaroos. Which frankly speaking, doesn't make this place less beautiful. Thanks to having an annual average rainfall of 1269mm this place is very green and fertile that features rain forests, and lush green fields.

The valley was originally focused on cedar logging in its early history but as more land was cleared and more people moved into the valley, it switched to more an agricultural focus. Now potato farming and large-scale dairy operations dominate the landscape. The environment as you could probably tell from the screenshots are wet and filled with both typical Australian in the highlands and wet rainforests within the valley. Many creeks flow into the kangaroo river supplying the adjacent fields with irrigation and fertility. The windy roads and limited infrastructure will make it hard to deal with when building a large city.

Features: It’s a 1:2 scale copy of the real valley, the roads, trails, and waterways still follow close to the real thing. Being an enclosed valley there are no outside water connections obviously, but there are 5 creeks that all flow into kangaroo river. This map also may not be the map for an older computer as I admittedly got carried away with placing trees. As of the current version, there are about 1030000 trees making logging somewhat of a good idea ingame.

Credits: Thanks to all the modders and asset creators that made planting 1030000 trees look good and worth it, the earth would be proud.

yeah i have tried to follow the real life roads with out much consideration for flow i was going to redo it but i just might wait till cs2 comes out and see what the map editor is about then

Looks good aside from the fact that in Australia traffic drives on the left. I know we can change that ourselves but it would have been nice for it to have been made with real traffic flow in mind.

Thanks man. I haven't experienced that issue before on any of my saves. Seems to work for me at least, bit of a odd issue. My only suggestion that might work would probably be to delete all game files manually then uninstall and reinstall.

But yeah, I only do maps when I'm not particularly busy and given this map has not gained more popularity than my previous maps despite being the most detailed I have done so far it is unlikely I will continue on CS1. However if CS2 is in fact being developed I defiantly have a few ideas and locations in mind.

Gotcha. Will do that then. Is there a known issue with unsubscribing assets then re-subscribing every time you load a saved game file?? Seems like when I do a fresh Kangaroo Valley map everything is there as intended.....but when I load a saved game file of the map certain assets do not load....always seems to be Lost Geckos generic trees and one by Pdlemo. Never had this problem before.....its making me say screw playing this game lol. Time is of the essence and spending all of it screwing with the Loading screen Mod is not it.....I really hope if they make a CS2 they streamline the whole loading mods/map instance lol.

Anyways your map is the best I've come across, and sucks that I cant create on it right now, but thanks for your creation man, its a beautiful map. Anymore in the pipeline?

There is a distinct difference between highways and roads in game. Highways are used only for transport. I would just upgrade the highways to roads in sections you need for zoning as I am unaware of any mods that allow zoning on highways.

It seems unsubing and then resubbing fixed the issue. Thanks! I do have one other question.....other than replacing the highway used on the map....is there anyway(mod) to allow building/zoning on the current highway in game??

Sounds like you are not subscribed to all of the required assets. If that's not the issue try and unsubscribe then subscribe again.

I hadn't loaded my gamesave on this map since December, when I went to load it today all the tress bordering the roads and trees giving the map the field borders are gone. What would cause that?

That's odd, have you tried disabling all other mods and assets?

Unfortunately this crashes on load for me. Not sure how to proceed with fixing as none of the other maps or workshop stuff crashes for me. I've downloaded the map requirements. Is there anything else I need to do beside enable them in the content manager?
