Seems very interesting tho. Maybe pre-generate the three "prompts" that you show when I open the page, and load them from cache when I select them? At least I can see how it should work.

edit: in 2d the map loads, in 3d it doesn't load. But when it works in 2d it's VERY COOL!

Here's my example: https://mused.com/map/sim/3129/roman-civil-wars-of-the-1st-c...

Cool idea, can only use 2D at the moment. Looks like the 3D tile quota is exhausted: "message": "Quota exceeded for quota metric '3D Tiles root requests' and limit '3D Tiles root requests per day' of service 'tile.googleapis.com' for consumer 'project_number:1016378558728'."

I don't totally understand this, but it has the potential to be very, very cool. (The satellite imagery doesn't work in Firefox. Just clouds.)

If this was just a post about generated clouds I would have upvoted anyway. They were cool. Love the vision!

Update: sorry google maps 3d tiles aren't displaying!

The Google Maps 3d Photorealistic Tiles are returning 429 Error too many requests Looks like will need to build in the ability for people to bring their own Google Maps API key. Fix up shortly

Asking for a quota increase with support! Will build in bring-your-own-key

Sorry, exhausted quota on the 3d tiles from Google Maps Platform -- should have workaround up shortly

Mostly I seem to be looking at some pretty great looking clouds and some (fake?) satellite imagery, but not seeing any people or armies or anything. And then every now and then it sort of glitches out and resets everything. I'd love to see a video or something of it in action. ... Oh, it seems to work much better in 2D. Now I see markers and stuff.

3d version exhausted quota -- will be back shortly! Video of the 3d version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXS9sNcDLJU

I asked for a large asteroid impacting the Pacific ocean. Interestingly the resultant tidal wave apparently heads directly to Honolulu, then to Terminal Island, then reverses course and visits Sydney before traveling overland through New South Wales and Queensland, causing some earthquakes in Papua New Guinea, and coming to rest in Tokyo Harbour. Also I just realised I can talk to the asteroid. It understandably seem…

This is the best thing that anyone has simulated yet hahah

Couldn't help but start humming Queen's Don't Stop Me Now after reading what the asteroid said

Hey defaulting to 2D map temporarily! 3d will work shortly
