Does the mountain have dandruff now? Hmmm. I don't think they were there yesterday. They look like they are above the light yellow border to the region, but that's only at about 155m. They are only in the Sojisan NE region. The Shergood Aviation map has them as well. I positioned myself under a largish block and flew, rotating, up above 4000m and didn't see anything. Perhaps a corrupted map tile? Or, given how much hysteresis there is in the map, perhaps something that WAS there earlier, and is now gone?

Sylvia Tamalyn Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Do we have any idea what Kodokuna Josei will eventually turn out to be? It's the one that has the large water area leading into Jollly Serpent and on down to the stilt homes. I assume the rail line will continue down from Shobu, but am wondering if the park-like landscaping will as well, or if there's something else in the works. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Train tracks, landscaping, and hopefully some coastal details like fishing nets and crab traps. A small waterfront fish market would be cool too.

I find the big bay there suggestive, but I'm not sure of what Occam's razor, however, tells us that the moles will probably simply continue the park-like landscaping. Certainly it would be more entertaining if the large bay contained something like a coral reef or undersea aquarium. Perhaps patrolled by Gamera! Or maybe it will be a swampy area, difficult to navigate, home to Kappa and Funayurei! /me tries to lasso her runaway imagination. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4lice Cerise Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 I’m looking at the map at http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Menhaden/128/0/2501 (where Sakura meets Stiltsland): The edge between the two regions seems so sharp! I undertsand that Menhaden is unfinished and some nice landscaping might still de made — something like what’s at Too Salty or Dannielles. Yet much older such gaps were not landscaped, though, as those five from Grand Banks to Albatross Shoals, or the eastern edge of Waved Whelk. Would a JIRA help? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eowyn Southmoor Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 I don't think LL are going to bother decorating all those empty water regions which separate Bellisseria and other continents. Seems likes a waste of resources considering the how busy the Moles still are with the actual liveable area of Belli, and the little use these empty regions get. Maybe once Bellisseria is finished they will stick in a few plants etc but I imagine that might be not high on their list of priorities at the moment. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahKB7 Koskinen Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) WEST COASTS EXPANDED! Thursday 9th June 2022: The west coasts of the Newbrooke and Chalet sub-continents have been expanded (and joined) with nine new regions. The nine regions are located between SSPSome Pig (Newbrooke) and Hydrant (Chalets). They are named: SSPGrey Ghost, SSPFudge Ripple, SSPPerfect Seal, SSPWhatsup Dock, SSPLandho, SSPBikini Top, SSPLes Poissons, SSPTritons Daughters, SSPRum Tug. The railway through Newbrooke and Chalets will form a complete loop when railway track is laid between SSPSome Pig and Hydrant. Moles have already begun laying track from Hydrant northwards up the new coastline towards SSPSome Pig.

Will there be a track fork or triangle at that jutting “cape” on the coast of SSPGray Ghost, to connect with the Sakura railway? Will there be a Bikini Thong region next to Bikini Top?

They don't show up on the World Map for me either which is due to the delay in it updating. it's kinda kewl to see these new regions and watch the transition as they are built. I've been watching the transformation of the railway line along the northern part of the Newbrookes. Great job Moles! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Persephone Emerald Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) The Chalet-Newbrook railway line is now connected and runs all around the Chalet and Newbrook Homes subcontinent. No sign of any connection to Sakura or the Stilt Homes from here, so it looks like those are only going to be accessible by water or air. p.s. I note that Whatsup Dock has pathfinding enabled. Other surrounding regions don't. Make of that what you will. It might mean nothing...or maybe a sea monster? lol Edited June 10, 2022 by Persephone Emerald to add p.s. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahKB7 Koskinen Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) I've pieced together a better view of the new west coast regions by using a mosaic of mini-map screenshots. I've also added in the route of the railway line; green for operational, red for inactive. Edited June 10, 2022 by SarahKB7 Koskinen 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You moles must be really digging in those heels and moving fast down the coast. Moles are famously industrious little buggers, but it's okay to kick up those diggers and enjoy your handiwork and the sweet smell of virtual salt air.
