100% map exploration - impossible to achieve atm?

[Knightrider]

I got covered all the places steve mentioned.. not a single gray spot ouside of texas.. (not counting the wallbert in sheridan which is a known bug)

@pigbrother if like me you got everywhere else covered outside texas, the 'culprit' might be those 'lines' of very small undiscovered (and inaccessible) sections in Texas.. I counted like a dozen of them. too much of a hassle to teleport to each and every one of it.. i took some shots of those using a map discovery mod... https://imgur.com/a/STi8O85

I have already encountered several such small pieces (some of which you might not have, although I don't recognise all of the places in your screenshots, and some of which I need to revisit to see if I can trigger with just the tractor) and perhaps there are enough of them (along with other known problems) to prevent you reaching 100% without teleporting. However, you might find the following post interesting in terms of just how many pieces you can be missing when 100% rolls around: viewtopic.php?p=1765177#p1765177

Also, if either of you would care to share a saved game (both info.sii and game.sii) via PM I can run them through my map discovery script and see what that tells us about what you're missing that counts towards discovery.

Steve, check your DMs. Had to sent game.sii split into 4 parts because the forum was giving me 'http error'.

The split game.sii was no problem and I've replied to your PM. I will repeat here some of what I said in the PM because I think that it is of interest to all:

That save throws some interesting light on the potential size of the issue here as I see 38 road or prefab items in the Texas DLC area that you've not discovered. Some of them will obviously relate to the items you've already found in the map, two or three may be impossible (two of them match the prefab ids of service station buildings in other states that cannot be discovered) and the rest I cannot say for sure other than that I have discovered three of those items so we at least know that those three are possible.

According to the info file you've discovered 99.9903440475% of the map, so you probably need to discover at least half of those missing items to reach 99.995 and thus 100% in game.

[Knightrider]

yep, still quite lot of work to do.

thanks steve for the in-depth explanation and tips.

[Steve Pitts]

Let us know, when you get to checking out what I've found, whether you can actually get to 100% without teleporting. In the meantime I will plug away myself but still have just over 10% to do (and the last couple of percent always takes the most time)

[pigbrother]

I was at 100% before Texas, I was stuck to 99.99% after Texas and last night I was bored and decided to activate all viewpoints (they were just discovered, apart from one in Cali between Eureka and Redding). At one point I realised I jumped again at 100%.

Free shrugs.

Am also on 99.99% I’ve found quite bit or gray but still stuck don’t know what am missing am I’ve also have all States

[CarbonGTGaming]

I’ve found another few gray but still on 99.99% i also found a another few again but still same resuit

@Steve Pitts I did all the tedious teleporting to the places in Texas I screenshoted on an earlier post, I cant see anything left to discover.

I looked with a map discovery mod the entire map (zoomed) several times and there's not a single gray spot (red using the mod) in the map other than the wallbert bug in SHeridan, WY. It seems to me that its impossible to get 100% in conventional ways, so How did you do it @pigbrother ?

SCS Should lower the threshold for triggering 100% or something, because its such a hassle as is now.

best regards everyone
