PINECREEK HILLS V1.2.0 FORSTEDITION FS17
I Description
Welcome to Pinecreek Hills. This map takes the map that comes with the game as the base and builds on it. At the beginning you are the owner of two farms:
Your home with chickens and the possibility of further animal husbandry (sheep, cows, pigs) directly at the farm. There are plenty of shelters for a large fleet.
Your forestry in the east of the map with a crane, a machine hall with woodchip storage and space for a temporary storage of trunks. There is a huge forest which includes flat (for beginners) and hilly / rocky terrain for advanced. Professionals can try to get the dead trees out of the river or fall the trees on the rocky and steep slope at the pumped-storage power plant.

IV Worth knowing
Despite the tests in the single- and multiplayer, mistakes can not be excluded. The following is a more detailed guide:
The implement of well known and often used placeable objects (seeds, workshop, …) was intentionally renounced in order to grant the player more liberties. On the farm is enaugh Space for small to medium placeable objects.
Due to the high number of trees, players with weaker Computers can get lags in the forest area. In this case we recommend to downgrade the visibility or the graphics-Settings in the general to get a smooth game experience.
On one of the starting fields, the Easteregg built by Giants on the original map was implemented again.
Due to the attempt to create a effective fields, there may be helper problems (machine-dependent) in individual cases.
Due to the setting process of the trees in the editor in connection with the form of the object of the trees as well as by changing the terrain, trees or other objects may occur in the air, although we have passed the forest and changed parts of the map several times (with 3-5 players). In this case, I beg your pardon and ask you to send me a message with a screenshot where the mini-card can be seen.
