[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

April, 62EL: Return

Lyhoko: Due to a tie, the poll is still running.


Galesfeburg has expanded to the south as well. This area just looks like many other parts of town...


...but for the first time, the development has reached an area where it needs to be built on another level that isn't waterfront. Watch where you're driving at that 6 way intersection.


The area around the civic building has also been prepped, but for now nothing has been built here yet.


And here's some farms off to the north of the ununburg or whatever that place is going to be called...


And a region view! Some new development here, like the new town, and the airport...


Eh? This isn't a Simcity picture... This is the currently skeletal framework of a CS-2 starship... which I many make some modifications to in the future.


And of course, the map. Click for full size.

Lyhoko: "Kuu" is Zukish for terrace or whatever those walls between city levels are called.

[SimCoug 5,976]

I vote 3.  And nice retaining wall work!

[Schulmanator 5,812]

That intersection looks like one I'd better pay close attention as I drive through it.

 

And the civic building looks cool. I am not familiar with that BAT. I like it.

 

I vote 4. (And the simlympic team seems to be off to a solid start. Anyone from Galesfeburg participating?)

[89James89 1,169]

I like it. The new buildings all look so clean and modern and really fit in with the story of the region.

 

Cheers

[Luiz P. Romanini 132]

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

August, 62EL: Mountains

Lyhoko: The results of the poll are as follows: 1 vote for expanding around Bredli, 1 vote for expanding around Nyuumau. 6 votes for expanding to the mountains, and 3 votes for expanding Galesfeburg..


Burgburg has expanded somewhat, with a couple new blocks appearing. Also, it seems a bit dark... is a storm coming?


Several farms have appeared to the south of Burgburg as well, with the main road in town, An 32, now extending completely though to the other side.


As An 32 continues to the south, the hills get even larger, and it soon becomes hard to find sufficiently flat areas for the planting of crops, so most of the area starts to be forest, with only occasional farms.


An 32 soon comes to an end just before reaching the first real mountain in the area, but not before hitting some development at the intersection with An 41. Though this is just an unburg right now.


Following An 41 off to the west, it passes some more development before hitting a section that needed to be cut out of the hillside.


It then starts to curve around to avoid other ridges, but does manage to find some flat enough areas for more farms. It also finds some rain, as well.


It then reaches another developed area, though this one is even smaller than the first. The farms in this area are starting to get more densely packed, as well.


An 41 finally comes to an end once it reaches that one town that still doesn't have a name, which has expanded a bit as well.


And of course, the map. Click for full size. It's a bit bigger this time.

Lyhoko: "Shil" is Myonian for mountain, the other new streets are either letters or names of people.

I vote for A and Graskor. I also like your town so far.

Great map!

[simcity1999 34]

I'm late for reading this CJ, but it's amazing and inspires me in some ways. One of the best CJ ever! I've even bookmarked your CJ!

And for the poll, I vote 3,B, Graskor.

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

January, 63EL: Ramps

Lyhoko: The results of the poll are as follows: 1 vote for expanding to the north, 2 votes for expanding to the east, 1 vote for expanding to the southeast, and 2 votes for expanding to the southwest. The other two polls are still running.


A new interchange with S-3 has appeared between the unburg and where it originally ended at Galesfeburg, with the new development around it displacing the original farms. Incidentally, the unburg is just off to the east of here, and can easily be merged into the rest of Galesfeburg if there's any more expansion.


The mayor's house is no longer right on the edge of town, as well, and the original corn field in the area has survived the expansion.


Off on the other side of town, a new beach has appeared! This one seems to be a bit bigger than the one near downtown.



Just inland from the beach, a high wealth district has appeared, as have some more hills requiring the second level to be continued to the south.


Some development has occurred along the main road, as well.


And of course, the map. Click for full size.

May, 63EL: Connections

Lyhoko: The results of the poll are as follows: 4 votes for expanding around Bredli, 1 vote for expanding around Nyuumau, and 4 votes for expanding in the south. For the town name the decision was unanimously for Graskor, with 7 votes.

Lyhoko: First Minecraft, then Simcity was being slow, then a power outage, then traveling... How is Lyhoko supposed to make updates with all of that?


Last time we were here, it was a bit wet... but now this town actually has a name! Welcome to Graskor!


And goodbye, as there hasn't been any notable development there since the last time. However, there has been development up around Burgburg. First up is a large group of farms to the south of Galesfeburg on An 101, finally completely surrounding the town.


Most of the development has been on the west side of Burgburg, with a whole new level being added between the new farms and the rest of town.


There's a bit on the east side as well, but not much. Burgburg is also pretty much surrounded by farms as well now...


Continuing east from Burgburg on An 101, there are several more farms, and some hills, but nothing like the mountains to the south of Burgburg.


And soon we come to the unburg on the stream, which is now more solidly connected to the rest of the development in the region, instead of being at the end of a single road. It's still an unburg, though.


North of the unburg, a new road, An 65, also connects into the region. Head to the west on it, and one will soon reach the southern part of Galesfeburg.


And of course, the map. Click for full size. It's a bigger one.

Lyhoko: "Weþur" is Myonian for water.

Nice new area. My vote is 1B. Graskor is looking good.

May, 63EL: Connections, Part 2

Lyhoko: No poll results this update due to tie.

Lyhoko: Lyhoko should sleep sometime, as Lyhoko has been up over 24 hours straight now...


The main street in Bredli has been upgraded since the last time it was seen. After turning to the left just past the farms here one will eventually reach the airport area.


Some additional houses and farms have appeared on the west side of town as well.


And some more farms in the area along An 97 between the airport and Bredli


At the end on An 97, head north on one of the two roads to get to the airport, or head south to get to the airport ferry terminal.


Meanwhile on An 72 to the north of Bredli, more farms have appeared.


As well as another unburg. Hopefully they don't mind planes flying overhead, as the airport runway is directly to the west of here.


And of course, the map.

Lyhoko: "Pyan" is Zukish for moon.

Why was Lyhoko up 24+ hours straight? I flew across the pacific but slept some on the plane. I recommend what I used on the plane: warm milk and enya music. Worked like a charm!

And I vote 1b this time.

Maybe one of the smaller agriculture towns wants a farmers market?

[simcity1999 34]

Nice update, I vote 1b.

[SimCoug 5,976]

3C for me - great looking farms.  

 

Enya...  that takes me back 

[Dazzyls 576]

Could you tell me how you make those maps? I love them!

August, 63EL: Diplomacy

Lyhoko: The results are 6 votes for expanding onto the island, 6 votes for merging with the unburg, 1 vote for expanding to the mountains, and 0 votes for expanding along the coast.

Lyhoko: Another tie?


Hey, that one intersection between S-3 and An 92 has finally been turned into an actual overpass!


Meanwhile, the crazy interchange at Mien St. has also been modified into a much less chaotic arrangement, with the train tracks being offset slightly to allow for more room. Additionally, the unburg at this interchange is now an actual part of Galesfeburg.


The area where the rest of the interchange was now has room for some additional development.
 

Bit steamy around the original power plant in the new industrial zone...


Development has spread down to the main road as well.


And now the new development and the surrounding area at night. Seems like it's been awhile since a night picture came up...


Meanwhile, plans are underway for a meeting between Myon and Schulmania, possibly along with the Blitkarni, a race of humanoid cat-like aliens who spit off of, and are an enemy to, the race that attacked the CS-1 back in updates Contact/Census 60EL. Details about the trip have yet to be released to the general public, but are believed to relate to the current conflict between Schulmania and Queensferry.


And of course, the map. Click for full size.

Lyhoko: "Rnüyc" is a type of tree, as well as a mouthful to say.
