Dwarven city Map

After a little dispute between Mattcraft and I, I have set up a general layout for expansion. I Used exact measurements (with the questionable size of the start area, which I currently have set at 200x200 but may change depending on Purple's choice) in my construction. By exact measurements, I mean I used the blocks from the game to build this map.

I don't quite understand this or why a new a topic was made.

This is all getting a touch on the detailed side considering that we have not seen Purples actual rules for Dwarves in R3... The "rooms" that he decides could vary considerably from those presented here. Also, 10 wide roads are huge and empty looking, we will either need to do something about their look or have them smaller.

It's not that hard to use halfsteps and cobblestone to break the monotony. These could be lanes or one block wide bands either crossing the roads or following them.
I think I would like to join Dwarfs this round btw, the plans are not only great, but they seem to attract motivated players.

I made a new topic so it would stand out for the time being.

As for the highways seeming empty, like decibert said we can place halfsteps and cobble also we could place lights hanging from the ceiling and in the walls.

But what about the "dispute" part? I was open to suggestions and corrections. That and I still dont get why 2x2x2 hallways between districts hurt.

I think, Keva, that the early planning paid off since Purple adapted the proposed rules.
2x2x2 is very small, like an alley or mining tunnel. I myself never build anything lower than 3 high, especially when you want to convey the sense of a serious metropolis you want to go at least 5 wide and 6 high or so.
10x10x10 is perhaps too large for a nation significantly disadvantaged when thinking in terms of land expansion (i.e. there's plenty to dig out) but the result will certainly look better and feel more epic-city-like.

Original map, slightly distorted but the halfsteps blocks are visble, try to use those as the key.

Flip the west and east layouts.

I have already gotten lost one time in dwarf city

That's pretty hard with only four roads that all lead to the same central area

Its just around the spawn and when you find the highways it's easy to orientate.

yeah, when the districts are up and running it'll be a sinch to get around.

How do you make these maps of yours? i wanna make one for our railways.
