Nika Talaj 5,506 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'm looking at all the waterways through camperzone ... the twisty paths ... the tracks ... listening to Dr. John and I'm hoping Garden Mole is stocking up on spanish moss, cattails and darlingtonia, because it's all beginning to have a Louisiana vibe to me! Oh yaaaas! Bayou would be the only thang that would make me want a camper, y'all 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Polenth Yue 954 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Also notable that the actual trailers seem to be appearing on the green parcel markers (based on the way the trailers looked on the map on the preview sim versions). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Voyager 1,928 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) Looks like the Moles have put new Trailers into SSP277. New developments going on in SSP280. 7th September 2019. Edited September 7, 2019 by Daniel Voyager 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marianne Little 12,536 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 The trailers get all the small lakes and waterways. 😞 I'm envious now. Not because I want a trailer, but that landscaping. So much water. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Evangeline Arcadia 1,379 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Can't wait to visit the camper areas when this is released!! I don't want a trailer (too small for me) but I'm guessing the landscaping will be beautiful and I'm really looking forward to spending time exploring there. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like to drive the roads of Bellisseria, it's fund to explore that way and I plan to do the same from my trailer. I'm just wondering (and hopeful) they will connect the trailer roads in a couple areas to the main roads. Because every trailer will have access to a road (would be silly if not) and I can pull out from my camp site and go exploring the entire continent and then drive back home again. OH! I should ask @Patch Linden to PLEASE make at least one connection from trailer road to suburban road, PRETTY PLEASE (With fudge and cherry on top, honest)!? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Porthole has a road, currently ending at a rock and the end of the world, but will obviously go South / Southeast: In looking at the same area in SSP, the sim below Porthole is SSP281 and, unless they completely block the trailers off with mountains, the road should be able to connect up with something in either SSP280 or SSP297: 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I nagged @Patch Linden from the very beginning for SLRR tracks and I'm gonna claim credit (No, this was NOT planned two or three or five years ago already, it was my nagging! That's my story and I'm sticking to it! ~snorts~) - so if this doesn't turn out then I'll nag him about it again and again and again and again and... you get the idea! Hahahaha!

I know when I ride Henry through some of the newer regions, or the ones still being worked on, the WL changes between parcels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, it's when passing through and no matter the "smoothness" of the dissolve in changing, it's still rather... alerting... or "startling" (immersion-wise). At least it's not switching to night time when everything else is day time like it was LOL 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not totally sure I understand your question. Yes, the waterway is set up that way to allow the Belli continent to eventually extend south to Jeogeot. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Those regions have been there since mid April 2019. It's unclear if the lab/Moles will add more underwater areas/airstrips along that route. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Voyager 1,928 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) Latest developments - 9th September Looks like the south tracks have been removed. Maybe the moles have had a rethink because of the expansion In SSP296 looks like the tracks will have water either side of it The latest new addition of new trailers/campers in SSP310 & SSP311 and SSP312 Just thought it's going to be pretty tight in some places to get a boat though.

Though I am constantly peeking in on those (and have many "hope-to-get-that-spot" choices, I've been keeping a very, very close eye on SSP100 - I suspect they will flesh out the southern area first before returning to that northern section and SSP100 is already marked-up to be worked on I am thinking when they complete the southern area then they will begin on that region. Perhaps that's when they will pull the release trigger (to release the southern area first.). Obviously I could be wrong (and not gonna take that chance, still doing the refresh thing even now) - then build the northern as a second "wave", or ongoing work as they have been with the Traditional and Houseboats, etc. Edited September 9, 2019 by Alyona Su 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the moles have had a rethink because of the expansion The tracks on the west side now continue down through 309 and look to be turning south into 325. My guess is that the entire boot will hold campers/trailers and that the tracks will meander "roughly" near the outer edge south towards the mountains, then east to the boot toe, then north, and eventually back west to meet up with the track that is currently hanging in 297.

Are those train tracks or just bridges connecting the tiny islands? The path looks a bit different than the other tracks look. A look at a larger area, there are similar paths connecting other land masses, so I think they are just bridges: Edited September 9, 2019 by LittleMe Jewell 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
