Okay so you guys added Orkney, Jersey, Svalbard Islands, the islands near Estonia and the Isle of Man. I am not trying to be picky but PLEASE add the Åland Islands I cant believe that they arent added yet they are the under islands of Finland you can easily add Mariehamn and Godby or Havsvidden. Could you please please add them in one of them upcoming updates. I am waiting for your guys answers and hopefully this inspires you guys to maybe add something



Regards, Joseph

And I could maybe help telling you how the Åland Islands number plate is atleast at every begining there is an Å hopefully this helps

We are definitely going to build it, there's no need to worry about that.
But it will take some time, sorry. It's not a priority at the moment, the focus of Finland project is currently around Kokkola (finishing vt8 between Vaasa and Oulu) and in eastern Lapland (connecting roads to the Barents Sea Project areas).

I'm not saying that Åland can't appear in the next version. But it's extremely unlikely to be there before some other towns, such as Kokkola, Sodankylä, Ivalo etc.

I hope you understand it. Mapping takes a huge amount of time - just for me it's around 1000 hours spent in the editor, and if you add up all the team members' working hours, you'd probably get more than 2 years of working time.

I hope not to disappoint you either - our goal is to eventually finish the whole Europe, and Åland is definitely one of its parts :)

In that's case, it seems, that we should create new "country" with unical license plates with template "Åxx 123".
But only, when time comes. At the moment we have priorities in another areas, and as well as Želva mentioned, complete some connectiong roads.

Regarding Åland numberplates, I thought I did a template for Åland or Mariehamn, but.... I can't find it...
