New page

The ''Map'' is an ongoing project by [[User:BKERR]], [[User:FlatPepsi]], Kazter, and Amazingbroo. Their goal is to get the map accepted into the official [[Grassy Landscape]]. There have been two previous notable map projects, one started by Salted_Spaghetti and another by FlatPepsi. The current project has been going on for the longest and has the most team members; the driving force is Bkerr himself, who keeps the others motivated and works on the map himself every once in a while.

The map will contain many large islands in an endless ocean. The first island will be the largest of them all, and is planned to be larger than the entire map of [[Metalworks Sandbox Demo]], whose map is around 10,000<sup>2</sup> studs in size.

== History of map projects ==
There have been a few different map projects for Grassy Landscape,

On 03/20/2021, Salted_Spaghetti offered to make a map for Grassy Landscape<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/823029021364453386 Salted_Spaghetti: "can i make"]</ref>. TerrodactyI accepted the offer, offering to give credit if the map made it into the game<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/823029031758200883 LoganDark: "if you make map I give credit"]</ref>. After a bit of back and forth, Salted_Spaghetti produced a first drawing<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/823029782706257941/823041177192104026 Salted_Spaghetti]</ref> of what they planned on the map being. TerrodactyI was unhappy with the first drawing, and criticized it for being too small and cramped<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/823029782706257941/823041677274775563 LoganDark: "I think your island is a little small"], [https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/823029782706257941/823041687302832138 "And a bit cramped"]</ref>. At this point, the map of the game was planned to be 2048x2048<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/823029782706257941/823041854789386281 LoganDark: "If you work with a 2048x2048 image, each pixel is one stud, which will give you a good reference to use for scale"]</ref>.

Pending the next drawing, on 03/25/2021, FlatPepsi came along and offered to make a map as well<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/824658717463150622 FlatPepsi: "I might be able to build what you are looking for"]</ref>. TerrodactyI agreed to this as well<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/824660626277924885 LoganDark gives a file to FlatPepsi, marking the start of map development]</ref>, declaring "best map wins". At this point, he had a better idea of what he wanted the map to be: a collection of very large (10k x 10k studs) islands, positioned in the middle of an endless ocean. On 03/26/2021, Salted_Spaghetti gave up<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/825001598274502688 Salted_Spaghetti: "i just dont have the time"], [https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/825001606663372851 "to make the map"]</ref>, admitting that they couldn't take time off school to work on the map, passing the buck completely to FlatPepsi.

On 04/05/2021, FlatPepsi invited Salted_Spaghetti back to work on his map<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/823029782706257941/828787524724850699 FlatPepsi: "ive got my good man Salted_Spaghetti working on the map now"]</ref>. However, by 04/06/2021, Bkerr felt that not much was being done for the map, so he decided to start his own map project as well<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/829201697359396884 Bkerr: "so me and u spring break are gonna make our own mws map >:) cuz flatpepsi aint doing nothing"]</ref>. They invited Amazingbroo<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/822231269484003408/822231269484003411/829202385963712543 Bkerr: "cmon broo"]</ref> and began work.

At that point, there was only one ongoing map project.

== History of this one ==
Of all the map projects, Bkerr's is the most notable because of its long life and steady progress. This is partly due to Bkerr's dedication to the project. Bkerr has made many drawings of the map, communicating with TerrodactyI frequently to make sure their goals align.
