This is yet-another Catan 3D set. But bigger. 

Differences

This version combines the two versions mentioned in the remixes, but also ditches the annoying connectors, enlarges everything by 1.25x (because 1.5x is too crazy!), includes 3mf files for multi-color layering, avoids wasting filament when coloring, and takes the best (imho) pieces from both models. 

Multi-Color

The 3mf files included were made with BambuStudio and include color change markers. You should be able to do similar in prusa slicer - I did with my mini. I've also flattened the sheep field in some parts, so the sheep can be just be printed on top with color change easily.

Maths

I've tried to include maths for everything I did to make these models, so others could tweak. Obviously, it's likely confusing since it's a lot of numbers. I recommend understanding hexagon maths and making sure proportions are proper.

Dimension Changes

Tiles are now 100mm x 115.47mm. This follows the hexagon ratio 1 : 1.1547005. Tile heights are increased by 1.25x as well, since taller is better, right? Btw, I originally tried 1.5x and the tiles were massive… 1.25 seems to be a sweet spot to allow for a 5-6 player game on a 40" gaming table. 

Male and Female connectors are placed ¼ and ¾ on the edge of the tiles. This is ~14.44mm from the vertices. If you are keen to change things, please feel free to fix my math on the male and female connectors as it is slightly off on the tiles but everything does fit together. 

The settlement tokens have not have their height increased, to make them more visually distinct with the cities, which are taller than ever.
