I mean there are many maps and some of then doesn't have a safezone or something like this.
Some of them have some thing...there and nothing to stay in creativity.
A map should be created by some rules ( these are my rules )
- chromatical tiles
- brain workout
- a logical order of houses, even buildings, wheather , sound
Ex : You wanna create a tavern? you need some tiles with some barrels of beer some tables with some chairs ...and of course you need the atmosphere , for this we use a sound where you can hear a happy and traditional music and you hear too some voices of a drunk and of other people are talking ...you need to USE your brain to make something.
- attractiveness
- and the scope of the map.
