>>19805250Except it does. What part of "Even with gates, GF's routes still match up with the region map" did you not understand?
Gates have a fixed overworld size.
>>19805290>GF probably designs their towns before putting a moratorium on rout layout changes.Yeah, probably, and whose fault is it for voting on a map layout before deciding on routes? Not mine, I joined far after that happened.
>>19805292>What's even wrong with that city in your eyes?Nothing, actually. It looks nice, though it is a tad small. Unfortunately, it doesn't follow the very loose guidlines we have for keeping maps in rough alignment with the region map, so we can't use it unless we modify the entire upper right quadrant of the region.
Maps don't have to fit the region map 100%, they just cannot intersect with other routes, and their connections have to be in the same location as they are in the map. Those are very loose guidlines that offer a great degree of freedom, that nobody bothers to even try to follow.
It's an EXTREMELY simple fix to make that map compatible, just move the entrance to route 9 to be on the left instead of the right, an move back the ocean a good amount and make the city itself be taller.
