- The page names a two-kilometre playable radius and says the map stops where the remaining streets have not been built.
Field notes
The interface provides a minimap, several camera distances, time-of-day and weather controls, and keyboard or phone-based steering. The maker distinguishes municipal geometry from photo-guided reconstructions of selected landmarks, and notes that terrain, some façades and tram operations are simplified. The map uses an HSL route snapshot rather than live transit tracking; the page also credits its data sources and states the applicable open-data license.
