Category: Maps

Maps are the regions where Beavers are born, work, and relax. They contain varied geography that can be altered by the Beavers using  Landscaping tools. Maps provide various  Natural Structures needed to sustain Beavers, such as flowing Water,  Food sources, and  Trees to fell for  Logs.

Timberborn has official Maps that are described below. Players can create and upload their own Custom Maps by using the Map Editor provided with the game. Other players can then download the Maps by using the Steam Workshop or selecting Custom for the map type when starting a new game.

Official Maps

👀 Note: - Beginner friendly

Map name	Size	Source strength		Underground Ruins	Flavor Text
		Water	Bad
Lakes	256x256	16.0	7.0	3	These days, areas rich in lakes and rivers are scarce. What little remains shows that there is still hope for Earth, though.
Plains	256x256	9.0	3.5	3	With expansive areas as flat as a beaver's tail, this region makes for a safe testing ground for novice engineers.
Waterfalls	128x128	12.0	4.0	2	It's an old parenting trick to tell kits that a waterfall is just a big floodgate. Here, they will spend weeks looking for a shutoff lever.
Beaverome	192x192	21.0	10.0	2	To build the legendary metropolis, the beaver ancestors drained seven mighty craters. Even with today's timber-tech, that's no small feat.
Canyon	128x128	4.0	4.0	2	In the desert, beavers always seek valleys where the rivers still flow. Easily dammed, this canyon will become a safe haven for all.
Cliffside	100x50	5.0	3.0	1	Remains of ancient human architecture are scattered across this secluded valley. The beavers aspire to leave a similar mark on the world.
Craters	192x192	10.0	8.0	3	Nobody knows how the craters came to be. Preliminary excavations suggest hoomans' violent involvement.
Diorama	50x50	6.0	2.0	1	Before they're allowed to oversee large colonies, aspiring builders are tasked with running small-scale projects like this one.
Helix Mountain	256x256	12.0	13.0	4	Even though they find the riverbed shape impractical, the beavers acknowledge hoomanity's limited water engineering skills.
Hollows	192x192	7.0	9.0	3	These bountiful hollows are a prime area for prospective settlers. The carved out landscape hides many opportunities - the eldest beavers even whisper of buried treasures.
Meander	128x128	11.0	2.0	2	Beaver engineers are keen to exploit the natural curvature of the river banks. Planning out the best usage of limited space is the tricky part.
Mountain Range	256x150	8.0	12.0	4	In desperate search for fresh water, beavers are ready to climb even the highest mountains.
Terraces	256x256	15.5	11.0	4	Many societies choose to settle on elevated areas, utilizing the beavers' newfound knack for vertical building.
Thousand Islands	256x256	54.0	27.0	3	Even for natural born swimmers, turning an archipelago into a thriving industrial colony is no easy task.

History

• Update 7:
  • New map: Hollows (192x192)
  • Every map except Diorama changed to make use of new 3d Terrain mechanics.
• Update 6: Can upload maps to Steam.
  • New map: Cliffside (100x50). Do you like the challenge of growing a settlement on a narrow scrap of land? This one is for you.
  • Updated all other 12 maps to a varying degree to make them work with 3D water physics better, use the Natural Overhangs, and accommodate more flexible start options. While at it, we also solved many minor issues with their older layout.
• Update 5: Updated map: Waterfalls.
  • All maps updated to included Badwater Sources.
  • Plains, Canyon, and Waterfalls are now marked as beginner-friendly maps.
• Update 4
  • New map: Craters (192x192).
  • Tweaked the layout for Plains, Meander, Waterfalls, and Lakes so that these maps are not too easy play better after the removal of district limits.
  • Since Maple and Chestnut Tree are now faction-specific for Folktails, all built-in maps have been updated to replace the faction-specific trees with other plants.
• Update 2
  • New map: Beaverome (192x192)
  • New(-ish) map: Helix Mountain (256x256)
