Vancouver, BC, Canada
A map of Vancouver, BC, Canada and the surrounding lower mainland. The map starts you off near the centre of the map (near New Westminster). When using the 25 block mod, the entire area is playable from North Vancouver to almost the US boarder and out east to Surrey.
Everything (rivers, highways, trains, etc) on the map is as accurate as I could make it while keeping the map playable. It took some time editing it by freehand after importing the heightmap, since the heightmaps don’t work well for low elevation areas. I have added resources to the map where they would usually be found in reality, except for oil and ore which were added in what would be likely locations. Ships run along the coast, as well as into the Burrard Inlet and Boundary Bay for better gameplay. Air traffic takes a path across where YVR would be placed. Animal spawn locations have been set at the base of the mountains.
I have updated the map a few times to make it more playable. Smoother terrain, better bridges, straighter roads. If there’s any improvements you’d like to see, let me know. Enjoy!
UPDATE: I have uploaded a V2 of this map (see my other workshop items). The river north of Stanley Park has been widened just enough for ships to pass, so they now enter the Vancouver harbour.
