This world is a completely empty map with plenty of space for you to put all of your lots and housing onto.
The inspiration comes from a mishmash of Armiel's original "Builder's Island" -- which I use for all of my
creations and play testing -- and from the fact that it is too small to actually hold all of my things (if you look
at my upload history, you will see that I haven't uploaded a lot in quite some time; while that is true, I still have
15+ lots that are sitting in my game waiting for me to just furnish them. God, do I hate furnishing.)
I solved this issue once before by making my own map for myself, but it is unsightly. I can't give you, the
people, an ugly world! I wouldn't dream it!
So, I made this. A large, basic, neutral world with plenty of flat spaces for you to dump all your W.I.P.'s onto.
Revolutionary, if i do say so myself! Anyway, here is a picture:

All of the rocks are hand painted, and the entire thing was done without height maps or anything along those
lines...mostly because I am not entirely sure how to do it. But, still, it is a talking point and makes this otherwise
plain world, sound a bit more impressive. Here, I'd like to diverge your attention with another picture:

WOW! Look at all that space! See, I like to spend absurd amounts of time making 64x64 lots
(then never finishing them *cough*) so I went into this with the "I need room for big lots, damn it!" mentality. So,
I feel like I delivered on that front, while still making the terrain a bit more interesting to look at. As you know, the
pictures are the selling point of your lots, so having a scenic view is prefferable to a large, flat, boring map. By the
way, speaking of views:

Just look at that! It's calling your name, builders! Move all of your creations over onto (Bigger) Builder's Island, today!
PATCH LEVEL:
1.63.5 (older patch levels might cause the world to crash if you load it in game)
