Description:
Robillard Flats is a real farm in Vermont. Built in 1908 by George Metcalf, Guy and Helen Robillard bought the farm in 1960 (there were other owners in between) followed by their son and his wife, Bernard and Denise Robillard. The round barn burned on August 23 2016 It was sad to see the photos of it burning as a little bit of history was lost. I was asked if I knew how to make a map and I only played around in the editor but this is my first full map build so please be kind if you notice something not quite right. The map is error free with a clean log thanks to Maverick the creator of Mavericks Multifuit map a massive map with many of the same things mine has. You should look him up if you have not already played his map. As well as BDBSSB the creator of the Westbridge map and many great placeable mods some of which are used in my own map. Check out his mods at his website https://bdbssb3.wixsite.com/mods.
As for the map itself it is a 4x multifruit with a lot of different crops. It also has Advanced Animals on a second stand alone farm. Grazing Animals mod installed, Mud and Chopped straw installed as well as the water trough addon that you own from the start.
There are close to 50 different palleted good you can create. Most of which are in a industial park and all the products have product names of things made in Vermont so if your from New England you might know them.
The seasons mask is installed but not ready to be used. JohnnyHughes in my discord is working on a GEO for Vermont specifically for this map. Thank you Johnny for taking the time to do this for the map.
There are 38 fields ranging from 1.026 ha to 148.327 ha. I have started you off with all the needed equipment but you will need more with a lot of horsepower to make it over some of the fields as Vermont is not a flat state so my map is terraformed and some field on the mountain are very steep.
There are also 3 forestry sections and in the mix of trees are larger ones that will need a special harvester you can find on many mod sites.
Due to the size of this map as well as the many many crops and productions you may have lag and lower frame rates. I built this on my gaming pc so those with lower end pc's may have fps issues. This is not seasons ready so I would turn it off.
So enjoy the map and please report any problems to me via my Discord channel https://discord.gg/zu6TQuU or through my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/jimsgamestreams/ I will not answer them here.

Error free log as tested with no other mods installed.
Map update:
Version number is not changed and no new save should be required as the changes made should not effect gameplay but it is advised.
1. Signs and some ground markers added or adjusted.
2. Productions with wrong output type fixed they should now show what they are actually making.
3. Floating trees. (Those i know about have been placed in the ground and there as you know are a lot of trees)
4. Missing texture file for a static tractor at the dealership linked to the proper file.
5. Pallet autosale triggers fixed (TY Maciej for your bug report it helped me find the issue)
6. More map markers added. (I do not want to clutter up the mini map with tons of markers.)
7. Sheep loading/ unloading and purchasing trigger fixed. (No idea why it was above the fence.)
8. Smoothed out one of the bumps in field 4. (Please note this map is not intended to be smooth. It is meant to have bumps and sinkholes for lack of a better description. just this one actually upset the equipment to much so I smoothed it out more.)
9. Made the opening in the fence at the sugar factory wider.
10. Adjusted the amount of pallets per animal at the butcher.
11. Eggs spawning in the wrong place.
12. Potato chips not working right. Salt and vinegar removed for now.
There where other things adjusted.
13. Grazing animals installed
If you see pallet mover not working right please report it to me in my discord channel. The map isnt perfect i know it has minor things wrong and i am trying to address them.
Please note The file is coming from my personal google drive. I have tried uploading to modland but it give me a error. for those wishing it was here I tried but it does not work. I refuse to upload to those sites that make you click links so they can make money rfom my files.
Thanks for downloading it.

I would like to thank renebqc from modland.net for giving me permission to use his map as the foundation for mine. I would also like to thank the modders at Marhu.net for the scripts that help make this happen and all the modders out there whos mods, buildings and textures you see in the map. There are way to many to list and I am sure if you have read this and looked around on the map you may see your work. Thank you all for letting me use your work my only changes for the most part are color changes with only a few mods being rebuilt a little different. Most of all I would like to thank all those working with me to find erros and bugs and JohnnyHughes for working on the season and GEO file for the map.
