The Impassable Map Maker Mod allows settlements on impassable tiles, letting you start a new game there or travel to one with an existing colony by caravan or drop ship.
Impassable Map Maker Mod Features
Impassable maps generate with one open area somewhere inside the mountain, hidden at first. This adds a different style of map exploration, with ruins and ancient dangers buried deep within the impassable mountains.
World pathing will still avoid impassable tiles, but telling a caravan to travel to an impassable tile will force them to go there. Travelling to an impassable tile by foot takes a long time.
Mod settings
- World Map Movement Difficulty: How long it takes to cross an impassable tile on the world map.
- Mountain Shape: Whether the impassable mountain is square or round.
- Outer Radius: The radius of the impassable mountain. Only applies to round mountains.
- Scattered Rocks: Whether rocks are scattered around the perimeter of the impassable mountain.
- Has Middle Area: Whether there is an open area in the middle of the impassable mountain.
- Middle Area Shape: The shape of the open area in the middle of the impassable mountain.
- Open-Area Width/Height or Radius: The size of the open area in the middle of the impassable mountain.
- Open-Area Max Offset From Middle: The possible maximum distance from the center that the center of the open area can be at map generation.
- Middle Area Wall Smoothness: Whether the walls of the middle area are smooth or rough.
- Edge Buffer: If the impassable map’s outer walls go past the map’s edge, this setting determines whether there should be a buffer along the edge of the map to allow passage around the impassable map. There will always be a small opening on the four corners of the map.
- Include Quarry: Specifically for the Quarry Mod.
- True Random: Every time an impassable map is generated, it will be unique. This is unlike base-game behaviour, where the map will be the same if the same world name and location are used.
Compatibility notes
The Map ReRoll Mod is incompatible, as it appears to cause issues if the map is rerolled.
