Daniel Voyager Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 41 minutes ago, Lloyd Overland said: Thanks Daniel for sharing this news, I have been eagerly awaiting this development. When the connection is made I hope that there will be some additional regions along the south east coastline of Satori to allow onward navigation north. I can't wait for the continents to be connected at long last. This is a very big development for sure. 5 minutes ago, Evangeline Arcadia said: Thanks for this. The map is a real PITA, can't wait till it's fixed. This must be what Patch refered to in the recent interview (Home & Garden Expo) about continents being almost connected. Bring on SL18B for the next LH theme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is now only a few regions separating them. Map still not working for any region visuals. Looking at the region names, I think this might be the new Chalets theme, because there are alot of German names. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Voyager Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Some of these new regions are showing up on the map. I wonder if this is a mistake or sneak previews from the Moles ? Some are probably going offline or about to come online soon. Another interesting development I think above. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The terrain doesn't look very chalet-like, more like ghosts of private rental regions. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvia Tamalyn Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Some of those region names sound more like the wild, wild West than they do chalet territory. Ooh, maybe the new feature is we will be able to do shoot outs at the OK Corral! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nearest, Buffalo Springs shows on Grid Survey as in existence on 4th March 2009 but status inactive so it is a bit of a mystery but I think that suggests it is not SSP as such. Today it is not possible to teleport into it, not sure if this is a region owner restriction or because it has been relocated/removed. I am excited by the possibility as I said above that the new Bellisseria regions may connect along the eastern Satori coast allowing the most amazing intercontinental sailing possibilities 😀 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd Overland Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Regarding the sailing posibilities if these new regions become available in there current locations (likely I'd say) then the nearest to the southern tip of Satori Muesli is two regions west of Pounce which is a Linden water region off the south east coast. I've created a quick location map: What would be needed to sail from the new regions in the south to the orange dot on my second map is 18 new Linden water or mix homes and water regions north along the Satori coast then off we could sail to Nautilus, Blake Sea, Corsica and Gaeta V. How awesome would that be! What is obvious from the pattern of the new regions is that the are clearly headed, as we have seen for some time, toward Satori as otherwise they wouldn't go north then east then north again (repeatedly). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd Overland Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Looking west from Mango Salsa where the moles are working their magic bringing new regions to life, the nearest to me is the least developed. As this SSP thread is like the unofficial Bellisseria history I thought I'd take some screenshots. If you want to explore SSPE1754 has a rez zone that works. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fritigern Gothly Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I wish people (including LL) would stop calling the next theme "Chalets", they are Fachwerk houses.

Elena Blossom Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) I guess it depens on the culture. According to Wikipedia, this is a chalét, quite close to the new theme, but here, we refer to them with this idea in mind (and then you have the Alpine style, which seems to be a complete different world!!!). I understand the term can be a bit vague, so it can work for an architectural style that is inspired by a German theme. Belive me, the term 'Trad' doesn't reflect at all my idea of a Traditional house, but we cannot be too picky with terminology, considering we are from such many different backgrounds.

Sylvia Tamalyn Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 It's that time again, when we are about to get a new theme, so someone has to roll out a complaint that "It's not like Real Life". Can't we just enjoy the new theme? (Answer: Apparently not.) 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethelwine Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) Another view of the new regions: I can't see a connection from Jeogeot being put in all the way to Satori just for planes to get stuck in an orb in South Satori. They will have to build up a waterway along the coast to Atanua, which opens up travel all the way to Gaeta V. It is really exciting to watch this developing Edited March 11, 2021 by Aethelwine 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not name calling, mentioning observed personality traits is not name calling. Perhaps you should listen when someone tries to educate you. Also, if the moles indeed call them chalets in spite of Patch referring to them as fachwerkhaus, then yes, they must be ignorant. As for ignorance, here, let me educate you on the very meaning of the word: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
