    Here's a pic of a road layout in my new world. Roads across the water in this pic will be bridges but I haven't decided what ones yet.

    If oyu have any ideas on how to improve the world please let me know. Thanks! :mrgreen:

      Love the winding roads, but you might have problems lining up lots to them. Also don't forget to check them with the chunk boundaries on to be sure your lots won't cross them. I don't know if it's changed at all, but in the past it could cause issues in game if a lot was on a line.

      Very pretty world! Keep up the great work!

      I agree with shay480 on lot placement being a real pain. Also, it doesn't look like you'd have too many flat lots either. When I am doing a winding road, I turn on the grid alignment and make sure at least some parts of the road are straight for lot placement, and if you turn the grid to 45 degrees while placing the road you will be able to pop a lot or 2 right on target.
      Nice painting though :D

      I don't think you have to worry about the chunk boundary too much, if you look at most EA worlds, they have lots going right through.
