      Yeah I love seeing governments and researchers do stuff like this. Years ago a country released a 1to1 scale map of their whole country, denmark I think.

        I remember reading about the Denmark 1 to 1 map, that was pretty badass…Given that Denmark is so small, it was an easy ask to make a Minecraft map!

      It would have been great if it was released for luanti, an opensource clone.

      Minecraft is a paid game controlled by Microslop and isn’t accessible to all freely.

        You have to remember that most know about Minecraft more readily than Luanti, so…It makes sense that Minecraft was chosen for this specific map. Hell, general people are more likely to know about Minecraft vs Luanti, so if we want more maps in open source projects…We need to make sure that Luanti becomes a household name like Minecraft to get that treatment.
