Anno 117 - Map Template Database
General Info
- In Anno 117, maps are generated based on predefined templates that function like coordinate grids, where each position determines the potential location and size of islands (small, medium, large and extralarge). The game’s generator populates these slots by selecting islands from the corresponding size pools. In Anno 117, the system uses sampling with replacement due to a smaller pool of unique islands in order to fully populate all designated slots (see Known Isses #2).
- All Map Templates use a base size of 2048×2048. However, a new feature has been introduced in Anno 117 that automatically shrinks the playable map size to the hitboxes of the spawned islands. Therefore, maps created using the ‘Atoll’, ‘Rift’, ‘Corners’ and, in particular, ‘Island Chain’ templates vary in their actual playable size.
- All Map Templates spawn 10 Deco Islands in the playable area.
- Additional Deco Islands can be spotted on all map templates in the non-playable area called Horizon Islands. There are 14 appearances of those islands in Latium and 13 in Albion.
Known Issues
- The ‘Regular’ and ‘Small’ ‘Island Chain’ Map Templates in Albion spawn with one fewer large island as intended due to a island size tag mismatch in the template files. The map generator attempts to spawn an XL island, which does not exist in the Albion island pool.
- Some Map Templates spawn with duplicate islands (extreme example from v1.1) because the number of islands placed in the template exceeds the pool’s maximum capacity (see Island Atlas for more information). The number in brackets behind the one for the amount of spawned islands indicates how many duplicated islands to expect in the session.
- Some Map Templates (especially ‘Island Chain’) have issues with missing NPC islands. For example on ‘Large’, seed 9760, the Raider island is missing in Latium, probably caused by the new play area shrinking mechanic. On ‘Regular’, seed 1984, both the Raider and Lady Diana’s island are missing. The Raider is still visible and interactable in the Diplomacy menu, but no ships are spawned. Same for the NPCs trade ships.
- Selecting the ‘Island Chain Small’ Map Template results in an infinite loading screen due to a size missmatch bug in the Template’s asset.
- Many maps look and feel almost identical (ignoring island rotation), and you’ll encounter the same island layouts repeatedly across different seeds. For example on ‘Corners, Large’, seeds 1,2 and 3 essentially differ only in one or two small islands. Every other island is identical.
