[OTTD] Emperor Jake's Worlds - NetTrans - Tiger Island

[Emperor Jake]

Hi everyone,

I know I've been away from the forums lately, I haven't had time or motivation to create or update my NewGRFs but I feel like I've been neglecting the community. For that, I apologise. I hereby present you with this giant screenshot of the map I have been working on for the past year and a half.
The year is 4101. Four companies: NetTrans (blue), Fred's Transport (green), Red's Transport (red) and HFA Airlines (teal) all connect a densely packed 1024x256 map. Between them there are over 7000 road vehicles, 750 trains, nearly 8000 ships and 200 aircraft.

The giant screenshot can be viewed here:

Preview: Here's Daimyo Wafer station, the oldest station on the NetTrans network. (Updated screen, also smaller so as not to break the layout)


Here's the GRF list: (Bear in mind I started this game in late 2012 so many are outdated)

Welcome back Jake, beautiful screenshot Looked through a bit of the Giant one too, some amusing names in there too

[Dave]

Welcome back. What a screen!

[ISA]

Very very nice! Welcome back!
Where are those maglev tracks coming from?

[Emperor Jake]

Thanks everyone

Here's a bunch of detail shots from the map.

A maglev train passes under a busy road. The tracks are from SMITS (Shanghai Maglev Inspired Track Set)


The beautiful building of Primal pocky station, a major high-speed hub.


A fishing boat leaves a fishing harbour. You could even call it an ark. Full of carp, no doubt.


A brewery next to a busy shipping lane.


Energy Silo Aluminium Plant, the most productive industry on the map. Served by 67 trains and numerous trucks and ships, it produces nearly 40.000 tonnes of metal a month.


HFA SkyLink offers regional and long distance air routes, plus a cross-map Concorde service.


A train passes under a busy motorway.


Train no. 666, known as the "Red Devil", passes through a suburban station. Can you spot it on the giant screenshot?

[ISA]

Oh yeah! Thanks! I was forgotten those tracks already!

[Metrication]

Wow! Amazing.

How many citizens does the world have?

How many citizens does the world have?

The word population is 3,942,148. It's tantalisingly close to 4 million. Unfortunately, this map has gotten so crowded that my computer can barely run it anymore.

Here is the largest city on the map:


Second largest:


Third largest:

More screens from the world of NetTrans:

Wig Recycling Plant, a busy shipping harbour supplied by recycling trams and ships


For Dot Stockyard, a major freight junction and lots of stock trucks


A section of sea near Lace Newts, teeming with marine traffic


A container train passes through a rail junction while an oil train loads

[Emperor Jake]

A scrap train trundles through the fields next to a canal. Opposite a bauxite train pulls into the loading station. Both are bound for Energy Silo Aluminium Plant, the busiest industry on the map.


A supplies and machinery distribution station. A stock and an oil train pass by, while a busy road crosses over.


A busy sawmill port, supplied by heavy logging trucks and ships.

A Cliff Edge Metro passes over the busy river, while a regional jet soars overhead.
