Description
Welcome to Danubia

The flatlands around the Danu-River were prone to regular occurring floods. However, back in the 70s things changed... The River course got straightened and the riverbanks raised. Fertile farmland emerged along the sides and just a small sidearm of the once wide wetlands got converted into a natural reserve. The highway A12 along the Danu river is part of this environment since the 80s and connects the capital to the port city of Rengdon. With the recently finished connection to the A23 further east, the national government recognized the opportunity to populate this logistically well placed area and founded the municipal of Danubia.

Mayor, the future of this fertile land is now in your hands. Do you envision a vibrant city with a huge density, an industrial hotspot which brings the port closer to the capital or maybe just green suburbs as a refuge for the metropolitans?
Or should we even walk a completely different path and renature the area, recreate the old river bed of the Danu and create a coexistence between humans and the biodiversity of the area?
Choose wisely 😉

Facts

The agricultural fields aren't colored as I couldn’t use surface painter in the map editor and I didn’t want to change the color of the resources... If you have a solution let me know :) or just place real farms there, that would be even better - wouldn’t it? ^^

There are approx. 240.000 trees on the map. I used low poly versions.

I'd recommend to subscribe to all of those mods and to use the relight settings you find among the map screenshots to get the right aesthetics and to work properly.
The traffic flow is also higher if you use TM:PE and allow vehicle to drive into blocked crossings as a default.

I also recommend to subscribe to all off the assets from the collection to get the map working and looking properly. I know there are quite a few, but I’m sure you already got many of them…. ;)

Connections:

There are quite a few connections on the map
Roads: - there is one 3-lane Highway going along the river 6 incoming / 6 outgoing - one 2-lane Highway coming from the flat area 2 incoming / 2 outgoing - one national road along the valley to be expanded 2 incoming / 2 outgoing - one national road turning west to the hills 1 incoming / 1 outgoing - four national roads connecting the agriculture area to the surrounding 4 incoming / 4 outgoing Rail: - There is one double rail line going along the river 4 incoming / 4 outgoing - one rail line going into the valley 1 incoming / 1 outgoing Ship: - There are two Shipping routes along the main river 4 incoming / 4 outgoing Plane: - There are two airplane paths 4 incoming / 4 outgoing
All the roads and train lines have realistic inclinations, therefore it’s a bit of a curvy ride 😉 I’d slow down the speed limit with TM:PE to get a more realistic appearance.
Just upgrade the road system and intersections as your city grows.

Hints

Screenshots are taken with the LUT Relight Neutral. You’ll find the according relight settings among the map screenshots.
I also made a Theme Mix to go along with. Thanks to all the map Theme creators!

The national government couldn’t complete the highway-bridge over the Danu River so it's now responsibility of the mayor to connect the two sides of the river.... they didn't do a good job anyway… who the heck builds more lanes than a bridge can handle.... idiots….

I don't know how to fix the problem with the arch bridge. I tried different things but it always shifts underground when starting a new city... However, there is a work around description among the screenshots. If you find a permanent solution let me know :)




I hope I could eradicate some of the issues you had with my first map Narrow Bay , nevertheless, let me know about any problems you find and how to improve the map!
But most importantly... Have fun! Can’t wait to see how other cities will look like on this map 😊

Credits: Huge thanks to all the modders and asset creators!

Thanks to BonbonB for the great review!
The ugly trees are gone ;)


Experiment

Use the SaveGame as a base for your own game to have the lanes at intersections already connected, speed limits an the a arch bridge on the right height ^^

Oh thank you very much :) Glad to hear you like it! Yeah there are some similarities To Vienna I guess....

My city is still very tiny.. mostly agriculture an an smaller town in the narrow vallley.
But I'm also really curious what you guys build on it. Would love to see it :)

just starting with your map, Harry, but it's just so overwhelmingly awesome! and for someone currently living in Vienna... it's even better than some Vienna-look alike ones. thanks!

I really wonder how does your city using this map look like. cheers!

thanks a lot! And glad you like the map :)
I changed all the exits now. hopefully that solved the problem with the buses.
@ wubby . sorry I still can not figure out what's missing. Does the missing asset cause you any problem playing the map? I don't think you're doing something wrong....

Hey Harry!

If you have some question about it, just send me a message. I'm testing your map fully, and all works nice.

See you Harry, nice work with this map, ITS AWESOME.

hey there :)

Oh thanks a lot! Had no idea those roads would make problems... I'll change it. Should be free this weekend

Hello, Harry.
I have found a bug on your map regarding the intercity bus station.

Basically the buses are "confused" when they are generated in the station and are left wandering through the city, generating a lot of traffic and creating a lot of problems.

After much testing, without added mods, I have detected that the cause is the highways that lead to the outside, which are two-way and not one-way, like the highways created by the game.

Using Move-It, I have changed all the dual carriageways and the buses now work properly.

I hope it has been helpfull.

Thank you very much for your work.

Hey Harry :)
I have all mods, also the one fili posted, installed and it still says
"List of missing assets:
one way double station track.RailwayBridgePillar"
I tried to redownload it but still be same :/ Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Harry  [author] Sep 19, 2021 @ 9:39am 
Hey wubbi, I guess it's part of the mod fili posted... Did it solve the problem? Otherwise I have to check what it could be....

Fili sorry to hear! I replied to your comment on the save game. Hope it will help!

Has anyone been able to play this map without just having terrible traffic? Basically all my outside connection points are just red all the time. There is no traffic in my town of like 500 people (5 blocks, tiny).

I went through and replaced every road with a highway and interchanges with higher capacity ones and I can't get above 50% traffic.

I like the map but this is more than frustrating and bordering on unplayable. Should I just delete all the outside connection roads except like 2 highways?

Does it have to do with this mod? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=724382534

I have been able to play it. However, it did crash the first time (not sure why). Then I tried again and it worked.


I am having some serious issues with the traffic around the dumbbell interchange, it was getting below 20% (my tiny town with a few roads was all green). But that may be related to the save game, see comment there.
