Problems with loading in

Hello, I am currently working on a game called “Dawn of Destruction” where the main point is to survive the night and prepare in the day. There is only one big issue; the map (which took 2.5 hours to generate) is presumably too big for Roblox servers to handle. It is a 16,000 x 16,000 map made with Roblox’s built in terrain generator. I assume the problem is to do with the map size being very large, but apart from that I have no clue. Any help is greatly appreciated, as regenerating the map would be a long process.

(EDIT: Game loads in fine in studio, it is only when you join in the client it just doesnt work.)

Notice the retrying 55 thing at the very bottom.

You can try using streaming, or maybe create your own map generator to load the necessary parts of the map at the necessary time. This way, you can minimise the amount of the map being loaded at any given time. If you make your own map generator, make sure to run it in parallel.
