There is no real scheme for building a map in Rust… you use the Procedural engine and tada, a 30 seconds map is auto-generated for you.  But these are crap.  Always the same borrrrrrrring maps with the same elements.

Here we build maps based on ideas, concepts, scenarios and gameplays.  You can even decide if you want a Winter-only island, or a Desert like in Madmax – Beyond Wasteland…

But as an inspiration for some cool features, I always use a list of needed elements… and sometimes known scenarios that I build the maps around. Here are some examples of scenarios. The maps are not always everything… most of them need some plugins, and the Umods.org gang is providing the bests there is!

########### Extreme Survivalism:
Pure Survivalism Enhancement where everything is just a little bit more than what it is in real life. Follows most of the vanilla setup, but with some explainations:

ex: all animals are agressives because humans are enemies in all states. even chickens hates us. Zombies spawn in the middle of the night and vanish when the sun is up…

################## Advanced Reality:

While you are a survivalist in a harsh world, your own house can become your only path to advanced tech. Automated CP, etc bring you to the age of 2020.

################## The Reality Show:

Remember Truman Show? The Prisoner? everything you do on this island is controled so you can not act aside of the goals of reality.

ex: Agriblock forces you to plant specifid seeds in the planters or they would not grow. If you break something provided by the higher mean, you are punished or removed from your loot.

ex: when you break a vending machine to loot it, everything in it will vanish. same for the CP.

ex: on first spawn you are given a startup house, and until you break it, you can not build another CP.

################## The Feria World:

Survivalism in the magical path. Automation of certain actions when you’re in your house, as the CP act on its own.

################## Back Story Plot Revealed:

When you first spawn, you are informed of the whole mean of this island. The back story, the objective of your presence here. Just do what you think is good for you to get out of this hell.

################## Down to Earth Life Endangered:

You live on this island as you were born here, with collaborating with others, having the more « down to heart » living. It can be endangered by raiders etc though… outside of the vacinity, life is harsh!

################## Science to its own Path:

All human spawn on the island is regrouping to survive against the scientists. Like in Westworld, humans have to survive against the NPC that wants to control them.

################## Suburbia:

a vanilla map with ALL the monuments in the middle, and surrounded by habitable places. the monuments have roads etc, and they will be connected properly.

################## Isekai:

asian anime type for scenarios with heros in fortified cities. Random villages built across the map, walled or shielded Safe-Zoned. everything outside is PvP etc

################## Mad Max Beyond Wasteland:

Part of the civilisation wants to keep the PvP and rusted raids, when the other part of the civilisation want to restart life as it was before. A vanilla scenario where two teams struggle for their survival or the disparition of their enemy.

ex: one team use the rusted elements to make war and live based on decay, use cars and build weapons. the other team is building life, plant fruits and veggies, recycle metal to peaceful usages and defense, build houses. Both protect their territories, and loot others properties.

################## toxic world:

the game is already toxic enough, so we have to deal with it… RAD elements everywhere, just avoid scraping your own life.

################## UAE Concept:

Like in Dubai city, where the entire city and attractions are built from dumping sand to create fake islands, our map is dumped islands as well… the north limit of the map is the continent… but unreachable!

################## The Barricade

is a PVP / Raid / KotH map where you have no chance of survival if you take a minute to smell flowers.

This is the place where you spawn for a fight, sniping, roofcamp, or anything related to violence… because the entire map is a vast region made for claiming victory!

There is no rule. Just do your own business. No hack or permission given. The only two plugin we installed to give permission are the « anti noob raid » and the « free home » which will protect you for 15 minutes when you first spawn, so you can take a look at install yourself.

################## Faubourgs or Total Roleplay …

Subburb from a Big City, you spawn on the beach and are welcome by the cheif of the village. You receive a home you can place anywhere, and you have to trend, exchange, loot everything to make a living.

Forbidden that leads to a ban:

violence is prohibited in the vacinities of the village.
Raids are also not allowed, and you will be banned from the server if you just try.
Toxic language or actions, like stealing or destroying other’s stuff.

Promoted actions that leads to a great server:

Participation
Teamwork
Professions: like you can be a farmer, a collier, a huntsman…
Protection: you can go to war, raise a peacekeeper team, combat the scientists… etc
