Out of beta!
Added 2022-05-17 14:59:58 +0000 UTCFantasy Town Generator is officially out of beta! This means that any settlements created from now on will NOT be deleted, so create away! I want to thank everyone for supporting me and helping me reach this point, I really appreciate it. I can't wait to see where we can take this!
Update notes:
- A proper login flow (email/username/password) has been introduced
- Road editing has been updated, see the previous post about the snapping features
- Settlements have been wiped, but any settlements created from now will not be deleted by me. If you have a settlement that you want to migrate to the new version, let me know and I can try and help you out. Fair warning, the roads in the migrated settlement may cause you issues if you try and edit it. If you never placed roads in the old version, this shouldn't be an issue.
Membership tiers
There are now two tiers of membership - free and premium. To become a premium member, become a patron of mine on Patreon. The email of your patreon account needs to match your Fantasy Town Generator account email. Since Patreon only charges you at the start of the month, you can effectively get a free trial if you sign up mid month and then cancel before you are charged. It can take up to 24 hours for your membership status to be updated.
Currently, the only difference between the two tiers is that free users have a limit of 10 settlements, while premium users have access to unlimited settlements. In the future I will be adding more premium only features, but I haven't yet decided on the scope of this. All currently free features will remain free.
What's next?
Next up I'm going to be working on the editing controls some more. I'm going to add controls to allow you to place and remove fields/mines/etc, and add better building placement. After that, I'm not too sure yet, I might work on custom religions and races.
Comments
Thanks! I'll note that feature down, it definitely sounds useful. I'll DM you about the bug.

2022-07-14 18:19:12 +0000 UTCThanks for sorting out my membership over the last few days, very much appreciated. Just signed up for Premium. Love this system, it is by far my preferred town mapper and prior to the update in May(?) I had around 10 towns. May I offer a feature suggestion please ... some means to exclude (that is prevent) buildings of a particular type being generated and/or a maximum number of that type. For instance I'm currently seeing to many schools. And what may be a bug: Just playing around and trying to create locations specific to my milieu and that means custom religions. But, even if the fantasy list is all unchecked and a replacement religion put in the custom field the software still creates religious buildings from the fantasy list and not from my custom input.
