Hello my dear utopians,

It's been a while since I solicited your precious voting power! Well, now's the time to remedy the situation today! 😁

A little message back from my vacation

Hello utopians!

It's been a while since I posted anything and I apologize for the lack of information. I posted a message on the Discord from memory to let you know I was away, but not on the Patreon, I think. 😬

I'm now entering my last week of vacation. I wasn't available last week as I was away visiting family in Dordogne. Now I'm back home, I'll be able to continue mapping Akokan Island over the coming week.

That's it, just a quick message to keep you informed!

I couldn't wait very long to start mapping again, I must admit. 😁 So this week, I reopened the island of Akokan in my editor and began placing the first road sections, as well as the 6 new villages that will make up version 1.1 of this add-on.

As a reminder, the idea is to finish this add-on 100% with the next update. And, despite a fairly high n...

Which sign to use to indicate the dirt roads on Akokan Island?

Hello dear Utopians,

Today, I'm giving you another opportunity to use your patrons-only voting power!

As you know, I'm taking over the creation of the Akokan Island add-on, and the main feature of this exotic little island is the almost total absence of paved roads.

Only the towns of Port-Méli and the village of Vieux-Habitants will have paved roads. The road linking these two communes will also be asphalted, so that everyone can enjoy this add-on. Some people don't like ha...
