FS25 Small Town USA V1.0

All beta notes have been moved to a dev log:
Welcome to Small Town USA. This is a fictional midwestern USA map with very large fields, rolling terrain and a small town.
– You will spawn at Diamond Jim Johnston’s house over by the sawmill. Buy a vehicle and you can teleport to MB Dyson John Deere right in town.
– I recommend using the DevCommands to buy all the land.
– This is a BYOF (Build Your Own Farm) style map. Meaning that I have created a smaller number of very large fields and left open area for YOU to build things. I am going to play this as a “Farm the Map” game where 1-farm takes up the entire map.
– I’ve added some fun easter-eggs to the map. Check them out in the woods.
– The state park camping, hiking and forest area is fun.
– Strange things happen in the woods though at night. Big crash site over on the NW corner of the map by Johnston’s sawmill. I think something got hold of a could six packs and decided to fly. Not good.
– You’ll find some history over in the woods by Whiskey Creek Road. The long lost art is still alive and well. Maybe someday this will actually produce something.
– The map gets 100% snow coverage. Or close to it. Yes, all the roads will need to be plowed in winter.
– You can buy fuel at the fuel station or the tank over at Johnston’s.
– You can sell all your items at the farmers market over on Elm Road. Signs point to what you need to do.
– The stripped grass comes from combining Meadow Grass Cut and Grass Cut together. They are basically the same texture but one is just a slightly different shade of green.
– The shop trigger is at MB Dyson.
– If you find anything, or have suggestions for improvements, please let me know.
– I made the map for fun and to personally play, but wanted the community to enjoy as well. I’ll update when there are major improvements (like traffic).
– Sorry I don’t have traffic yet. I still need to learn that.
