Making a game like Jalopy

Help and Feedback Game Design Support

If you haven’t’t heard of Jalopy it’s where you are given a Lakia Jalopy, and you drive it with your uncle across Western Europe. Overtime you could face problems like you would in a regular car. (Breakdowns, Flat Tires, etc) So I was wondering if making a adventure game like this would be possible in the Roblox Studio Engine?

I could definitely do terrain but parts like map transitions not so, meaning I’d have to stick to one map instead of picking a map as you couldn’t load terrain through ServerStorage…

This can definitely be created with Roblox.

It sounds like this is a single-player game? Single-player are generally less common than multiplayer games.

You can actually load in different SmoothTerrain.
Take a look at TerrainRegion.

The following code will save your whole region as an Instance and return it.

local SavedTerrain = workspace.Terrain:CopyRegion(workspace.Terrain.MaxExtents)
SavedTerrain.Parent = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
SavedTerrain.Name = "Map1"

The following code will load your region.

local function loadRegion(Terrain)
    workspace.Terrain:Clear()   
    workspace.Terrain:PasteRegion(Terrain, workspace.Terrain.MaxExtents.Min, true)
end
loadRegion(game.ServerStorage.Map1)

Is there a specific size needed for this?

Nope. Not at all. This exports the whole terrain
