About Synecdoche
Welcome to SYNECDOCHE!
Synecdoche (noun) Sin-eck-doh-key: A figure of speech in which a part is made to represent the whole.
Crafted over the course of years, this map offers something extraordinarily rare in this community. Custom monuments are amazing and fun to explore! I've seen so much hard work go into them and people have made some really cool stuff. However, custom monuments are only a small part of the level design in Rust. Wouldn't it be nice if we could get as much unique design detail out of the rest of the map? Wouldn't it be nice if your server felt like a real place, instead of a procedural blob map?
A Map Focused on Detail, no matter where you are:
But who would be insane enough to do such a thing? And how would it be possible? A 4k Rust map is 16 square kilometers. To make this feel like a real place, and give each space the attention to detail it needs demands thousands of hours working with consistent standards. This is why almost all of the maps aside from a handful on these sites will choose to use some form of procedural generation, and what makes synecdoche so uncommon. Every square meter was hand crafted with care, to make a place that feels alive and fantastical. it's what makes the map feel so beautiful.
Still Not Convinced?
Well, here's some of the feedback we've gotten from the community!
Where Reality Meets Fantasy
Each and every spot on the map was precisely manicured to feel unique and significant. Every rock has its purpose, and every nook and cranny was deliberately sculpted to inspire exploration. There are no locations on the map that were forgotten or left behind. Each location plays its part to represent the world as a whole.
Information and Specifics:
This map includes only vanilla monuments and can be run under the community tab. It does not require any 3rd party dependencies, not even the RustEdit Oxide DLL. However, you will need to place the included Harmony mod in you harmony folder to prevent Cargoship from leaving the map while it docks at the northern harbor.
