Backstory:


Alkaya, a beautiful region of a fictional eastern Europe place. It has been three weeks since the apocalypse had started and is at an all time high. Alkaya's region has been one of the most affected areas in the entire fictional world that it lives on. The world has taken a toll from the outbreak ever since leaving many deceased and coming back to life just to roam the streets of emptiness that is left of Alkaya - and here's where you come into play you've washed up on the other side of the shore as you passed out from exhaustion when attempting to escape a horde of zombies by swimming across the river, having to leave your family behind. But Before the outbreak you were living in the largest city beyond the bridge, it was a dream for you you were a successful business man who had a great company which gave you lots of income, but all of that went into shambles as it all struck at once. Millions of people within minutes were infected leaving cities going into a state of panic and leaving them on lockdown. Up until now, the city of which you've escaped from is being heavily protected from any sort of life that is to be come near it and that attempt entry into it, it is beginning to be stable there, though it isn't easy over there. Realizing you won't be entering back into the city and will most likely never see your family ever again, you get back up and start your own adventure in the lands of Alkaya.

How I got the inspiration to do create this map:

Me and my friends started playing our own survival lets play and as we were fed up with many of the maps and having to look through the steam workshop for hours on end just to find roughly 20 maps that all had at least one imperfection of which we could not play it and leaving us in despair (Yes this happened, yes I was looking for maps on the workshop for hours just to find maps that had imperfections that didn't suit our list of viable maps (also not saying all of the maps were terrible, they simply had imperfections of which we didn't want to play it.))

I initially started plans on this map on March 20th, 2022 and finished it for version 1.0 in April 29th, 2022. Starting with a few screenshots from Russia to capture the terrain colors to start my sketches for the map. After a week or so I was done with the sketch and started with my map:

I firstly laid down the terrain on which Alkaya would stand on, then cut out the rivers. After that was done I started marking down where everything would go with buildings representing the area. (ex. 1 story house - small city; 3 story office - a medium city; the 7 story office - the large cities; and so on and so on.) Then I started molding the streets for each city and after that - placing in buildings, with each city containing it's needs. (police stations, fire stations, schools, grocery stores, shops, residences etc.) after all of that was done, then came the hardest parts of map making: placing in interiors and placing in item, zombie and vehicle spawns. Now I didn't know too much about creating spawn tables so I took them directly from the Russia map files and imported them into my map, the same went for materials. (and if by any chance you haven't noticed, the map Russia was the entire inspiration of my map) After all of those things were done I started doing some lighter work such as adding in trees and finalizing everything which is on display for you to play on.
