Yes, long overdue in my opinion. Population is spread far too thin over far too much space. No matter how many props, how much stuff, or how many NPCs are filling in that space, only population density can make it feel anything but empty.

We peak at under 50 players, AFAIK. We have over 200 maps.

In order to guarantee each map has more than 1 player at a time, we would need to cut so many maps the PW would be unrecognizable... and many of our players may not agree on which handful of maps should remain.

Well the concern is file size. Gonna target big maps that dont need to be so big in tile size and if not ideal to reduce the tile size then by other means like reduce the grass and stuff
