edit: oh I forgot to mention I’m @[email protected], I was just on this account because federation issues which seem to be worked out now 🤷♀️

I think that’s not actually Pangea (the past supercontinent), but a rendition of Pangea Proxima (the future supercontinent). So just gotta wait a while…
It’s definitely not pangea. For one, South America and Africa are not connected (which is the one thing everyone knows about plate tectonics). However what initially jumped out to me was India and the Himalayas (which are a relatively recent geological event).
We can do the structures now, and wait for them to match like legos by themselves
If every country would just build for the future Mother Nature will eventually finish the connections.
So what you’re saying is, we have a chance?
it was a simpler time
Where did these mountains end up???
The image is of a hypothetical future Pangea not the original, so those mountains would form due to re-collision of Europe and North America.
Oh great, so in a hundred million years Iceland is going to be crushed? We should be thinking about evacuating the puffins.
The idea makes me think of The Centerfuge Brain Project where the doctor, talking about a gondola-type… ride, says, “people would fall asleep, miss their stop, and have another 14 hour ride, and you can imagine the problems that caused.”
They would still be bitching and bickering about it.
Suddenly I want a Pangea Factorio map.
The factory needs more land
As much as Factorio’s map gen algorithm is great for ensuring balanced access to resources and (functionally) infinite sprawl, I would love some handcrafted maps that involve feature scale and fractality (fractalness?) approaching real life. The default map gen is too samey after a certain point and size reached.
Companies would still make flying around the waterworld the default. Claiming “sound issues” for the people below…
Was there enough fossil fuel to run these trains back then?
And somehow we would still have US americans tell us, that pangea is too big for a usable railway network.
I want to see it.
it would also be incredibally hot inland too.
See what they took away from us!
they
Plate tectonics?
Psst! Don’t say their name too loud. That’s bad for the algorithm
Need me a Pangea openttd map
OpenTTD in the wild.
Rail network?! That’s commie talk. Real patriots would have an interconnected highway system.
The factory must grow. Only took me 7,000 hours to start using trains.
Think of all the mega parking lots this bad boy could fit!
Hell yeah! I love a good mega parking lot!
just 1 more lane bro, we’re gonna solve traffic dude just add 1 more lane
