SIS Map Settings

Description
Using 2km^2 maps can result in pathfinding issues for characters

What is this?
This mod modifies the world generation settings to allow creating bigger maps (2km²) with much more loot, towns, vehicles, survivor camps and more! Bigger maps are not officially supported, and they have an important impact on performance. Recommended to have a high-end PC.

You can now also choose how mountainous you want your maps to be through the "MapHilliness" setting.

I personally recommend to keep the maps to the supported size, and setting the towns/vehicles sliders above 500% for the best result. If you really want to play the Huge map, lower the zombies and survivor communities for a smoother experience.

Map generation will sometimes fail because of your settings. Keep playing around with them, and don't overly increase everything.

Just tried it without any other mods enabled, and the option does appear for me so it sounds like its an incompatibility. Do you have any other mods enabled? Are you using it on the default Sandbox story, or a custom one?

Not work. The game won't load this mod before creating new game. I have no 2km option even when I check this mod.

The closer to 0 the setting is, the less mountainous the map will be. So 0.5 would be 50% of the default hilliness, 0.2 would be 20% of the default hilliness. And with 0 you should get no mountains at all. You do have to exit the game completely once you change a setting though. So change setting, exit game, launch game again and create a new world. That should work normally

How do I change the MapHilliness? I edited the number in the xml file, but I am not seeing any difference in how mountainous the map is. Which number makes it more mountainous, 0 or 1? Thanks

Hey man, I'm confused how to use this in the main story. Just trying to increase zombie density for my coop session. Thank you.

@KnowChillx Just looked into it but the "Huge" map option is appearing for me. Could be an incompatibility with another mod? If not I'm not sure

@Beef Made I'll check for a Hit the Road fix
KnowChillx 11 Aug @ 4:11am 
It shows that I have the mod 'checked' but there is no 'Huge' option in the sandbox menu.

@SweetCaptn Is there anyways to "hit the road" and have the game generate with the settings of this mod? Usually it just defaults to the normal settings it looks like.
