Free road utopia created on map generation

[Roboron]

On map generation, a small neighborhood was created on one corner of the map, far away from any city hall. Even stranger: there is no roads! How are they supposed to move around without cars??? Insane!



If you join the Simutrans Public Server, you can see this for yourself. I have tried to recreate the map and the same happened again and again (with different buildings).

On reddit, there is a subreddit called /r/f***cars (I censored the word, but it's the "f" word in the name) that would probably love this. lol

I checked the buildings and they each belong to a different city. As such, some cities have their area going from (0,0) to (x₂,y₂) instead of (x₁,y₁) to (x₂,y₂). (As a side effect, what happens when such a city decides to build houses? Are they spread up over the map?)

[Andarix]

This problem has existed for quite some time in the server game.

Sorry, I can't find the thread about it anymore.

The houses would be spread over the map, although in principle limited to a suitable location (near a road or next to a hosue).

Ah, geez, the way I play is with -freeplay on with a goal of serving every house/factory/etc. This would be an *adventure* of a map. lol. Little busses all over!

I have created quite a few maps an never got this so far. Are there any addons, like multitile buildings in your pak128?

[Roboron]

No addons, vanilla pak128.

You can check the Simutrans Public Server map, and if you create a map with the same parameters it should happen again (it happened to me every time).

[prissi]

I created 25 maps and it did not happen even once. Sorry, cannot reproduce this.

I have had this happen before with pak192.comic. It seems to occur at certain densities of cities on map generation, but it has been a while since I was having the issue. Also therr has been the occasional very long or very wide city.
