Kolam Bulan

Description
Kolam Bulan, which roughly translates to ‘Pools of the Moon’, named after the distinctive shape of the volcanic pools in the north west of the region, has long since been revered as an area of natural beauty and spiritual significance. Conversely, it also has strategic and economic importance due to being the only area for hundreds of miles with road, rail, sea and air connections. Consequently, there grows a friction between conservation and progress, as nature makes way to concrete and the new builds over the old.

Though this map is entirely fictional it is inspired by areas such as Kelimutu[goo.gl] and Sumbawa Besar[goo.gl] in Indonesia.

There are four outside road connections, four outside rail connections with dedicated lines for passenger and freight, an outside sea connection and a flight path. There are plenty of natural resources, water sources and plenty of build space.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ
This map was created from a save game so:
  • Make sure that Prop & Tree Anarchy is set to ‘always on’ and that Fine Road Tools is enabled BEFORE you load the map (else you’ll see floating props, catenary chaos etc.).

  • Make sure Unlimited Trees mod is enabled with the slider set to 6 BEFORE you load the map (else you’ll have blocks of missing trees).

  • If you intend to use 81 Tiles mod DO NOT start a new game with this enabled! Start a new game with 81 Tiles mod DISABLED, save the game straight away and exit to desktop. Reload the game, enable 81 Tiles mod, load your save and unlock tiles required. Then you must save the game, exit and reload once again. Only after doing this will all the tiles render properly - yes, I know this is a pain, but you only need to follow this process once before you start playing on the map.

  • This map is highly detailed, so if you're planning on building a large/detailed city then you should be prepared to remove some of the decorative environmental props. Alternatively, if you are concerned about performance and/or prop limits I have provided a seperate low detail version of this map - Kolam Bulan (Low Detail).

Map Theme & LUT
For best results use Theme Mixer 2 and load the Kolam Bulan Theme Mix.

Highly Recommended
  • Extra Landscaping Tools – there are a lot of rivers and water spawn point on the map so, to make certain areas buildable, you may have to use the water tools in this mod.

  • 81 Tiles - to make the most of the map you really need to break out of the basic 9 or 25 tiles. Note, if you use this mod please read the notes above, also be aware that all tiles will appear unlocked already.

  • Catenary Replacer – though I took time to line up all catenaries, it’s always a bit of a gamble when loading the map so you could use this mod to remove them.

Finally
Credit to CreativeDEX as I copied the shape of one of his intersections.

Thanks to BonBonB for his continued support of the map making commnuity.

@djman311 and @Drakelord138 - see notes I added above about 81 Tiles mod.

I'm having the same issue as @djman31. Any solutions?

I'm not sure if I'm doing it right but every time I enable 81+ tiles when opening the game a second time all the tiles are all unlocked and the texture of the roads are strange. Not sure what the issues is.

This map is incredible. You're an inspiration to every map creator, well done!

@hectorkoolen - have you subscribed to all the tree assets? Have you enabled Unlimited Tree mod and set it to 6?

Trees are not appearing

@jvyce - this is a map, not a mod, so it's unlikely to be the root cause of any issues. The cause is more likely to be an incompatibility with one of the mods. Have you tried unsubscribing from everything and loading the map with only the required mods/assets? If you still get issues can you describe in more detail the problem your seeing?

Unfortunately either this mod or one of the dependencies of it just breaks my entire game :steamsad:

I just saw the full map in the review. Congratulations, you did and incredibly good job. Visually stunning. The amount of time you have put on this one is very well spent. I can't play this one, but i'm trying the lighter one. I relly was hoping to see a review of the full map, I was really curios about it, and I lije what I saw.
