We are off to Tarsis31 and Yagisan's Lakeside Cabin - a quaint rural location located near Wicked Shipping.

Requirements:
  • The settlement must have a City Planners Desk and a Beacon.
  • All city plans must contain all 4 levels.
  • To encourage MAXIMUM CREATIVITY we will not be imposing any other plot, food, water, defense, or happiness restrictions on entries. Mod added, Creation Club added, and Plot Cloned static objects and SCOLs are illegal.
  • Please use the Contest Holotape and check your settlement before submitting. Entries with Purple/Illegal items will be ineligible.
  • All entrants MUST upload their saves (Levels 0, 1, 2 and 3) to here for validation. Please follow the instructions on that page.
Please note: If you don't want to post your entry to Nexus you can post it within the Entries forum!
Your entry will be considered complete after both the saves are uploaded to my dropbox link and the entry is posted on either the entries forum or Nexus.

Please post your entry here in the forums

Things to be aware of in this settlement:
  • You can not scrap the traders house. This is by design.
  • You can kill the trader, but why would you want to? They are a level 3 general trader.
  • The trader is not a settler and can not be commanded.
  • This settlement is right on the edge of the game map. You are strongly encouraged to not build out of game boundaries. Players and NPCs can not travel out there.
  • This settlement is close to both Sanctuary and Abernathy farm, but far enough away to be outside of the triangle of death.
Competition Entries Close on 11:59 PM CST on the 28th June 2023!

Finally, Looking to get started quickly and easily in the contest? Why not try our SimSettlements 2 City Plan Contest Helper wabbajack.

It could not be any easier - it's already set up with the correct custom settlement.

In this tutorial video, I'll take you through how easy it is to get started.

Considering the settlement location, strongly consider using the Cinematic Markers when designing your plan. Being next to the edge of the map makes it difficult to get wide cinematic shots in the automatic mode.
