A blast from the past
This is the first in a new set of maps created using elements of the Procedural generation system from 2020. The focus is to recreate the experience of older map generation, but with most of the new features and quality of life in the current game!
‘Enhancements’ and QOL Features
Making a playable map from the old procedural generation means coming in and making lots of interventions manually. This map is more custom than it is procedural at the end of the day. It is not a “true” recreation of a procedural map, but has been “enhanced” with manual interventions to improve the overall experience of the player. Here are some of the ways the map has been enhanced:
- The layout of monuments was placed manually in such a way as to evenly distribute loot symmetrically across the map
- Roads were laid down manually to be more straight and smooth, creating a more realistic and interconnected system
- Bridges were added to connect a few monuments over water
- patchy areas of cliffs were manually covered and adjusted to be more consistent
- Underground train tunnels were added along with tunnel entrances
- Manually placed all caves and rock formations in optimal areas

Setup
Map FAQ – How do I host this .zip/.7z file I just purchased on my server?
• First, you want to unzip the file. You can do so by just double-clicking it to open, then drag the contents to the desired location (you may need to install an external unzipping software if you don’t already have one)
• Next you will find either a structure of folders or just the .map file itself (it’s the important one).
• Once the .map is uploaded to dropbox simply copy the share link attached to it.
• You will first start off by uploading the .map file to an online hosting provider, I’ll include dropbox since it’s easy to get started with.
• Once you’ve copied the link paste it into your server’s startup .bat (batch) file. (You can leave the worldsize/seed. Custom maps override proc gen parameters)
• Example “levelurl “https:// www dropbox dot com/s/sdfagbragae/testmapname.map?dl=1”
• Make SURE the dl=0 at the end is changed to dl=1 otherwise players won’t be able to join!
• Now just start your server and it’ll boot right up! Below I’ll attach a video that goes more in-depth on hosting custom maps vs proc gen maps since it’s a tad different
Additionally, here’s a great video that easily covers hosting a custom map for the first time if you need it! https://youtu.be/y9vNvOIPyVM
• Installation is not included with any products on the site, however, if needed we may assist if you reach out to our support.
• If the product contains a plugin file (.cs) it’s advised to have it installed prior to booting your server with the map you purchased
Currently all products on Lone.Design will be contained within a zipped file which is the .7z or .zip that you see. I believe windows 10 and up can unzip on its own without 3rd party tools, but in that case, if you’re unfamiliar with zipped files here are 2 programs I recommend to easily unzip zipped files.
