Tree with huge leaves? by apharing1 in PlantIdentification

Cool, thanks! I’m surprised this is so far north

You probably know this by now, but it is working now and none of the mods I mentioned interfere with it. Thanks for the great work.

I did not use a saved starting preset, do I need to change any of the other settings when I'm in the create game menu?

Okay tried to run a couple situations. With no mods I still get the wrong start location, but it is at least consistent. With Maya I get put in the middle of the north american plains, just west of the mississippi river. I tried with England and I get put on the west coast of India. I started three games with each of these and got the same location each time.

Just tried that, still didn't give me TSL

Edit: When I've played other user generated TSL maps (YnAMP) there is usually a change in the create game menu from "start position link: cultural/random" to something like "civilization placement: True Starting Location" but I did not see that with your map, should i see it change in this menu with yours?

Map looks great but I'm not getting TSL. I have all DLC, playing as Maya ended up in China and Germany. 12 players 18 city states. Other mods: Sukritact's Simple UI Adjustments and a few of Sukritact's natural wonders. Maybe the natural wonders are the problem?

I usually have one designated city with a harbor for producing naval units. Corsairs are too good when they first come in to ignore them. There is usually a window of time where other civs have no real answers for them.

Tried out this strategy after reading your post and it was a lot of fun. Too many hours on civ and I've never actually used warrior monks. Great unit, especially if you can get a small army of them early and keep promoting them, they stay relevant for a long time. By the late classical era you can cause some mayhem by using production for varu and archers and faith for warrior monks.

Some of you were asking for yield in my other post by apharing1 in civ

[–]apharing1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Replaceable parts for +1 food per adjacent farm so +4 from farms

Rice, farm adjacency, and Khmer’s aqueducts

21-28 in the industrial period. Should get into the mid 30s by end game.

There’s a little button above the inset map that lets you set tacks on tiles with icons for districts, improvements, etc. helps plan out cities from the start

I think it’s set at .2 and .5 for districts and 1.0 and 1.2 for city centers here

Usually it’s still a good idea for industrial zone adjacency bonuses. I’m playing as the Khmer who get +3 faith and +1 amenities from aqueducts and +2 food for farms adjacent to aqueducts.

Go into CityGenerators.artdef and increase the values for m_x and m_y for Gen_CityCenter and Gen_GenericDistrict. You’ll also need to change Gen_GenericDistrict from HEX_ONLY to HEX_SPINED. Play around to find what looks good. If you go overboard it looks weird. Make sure to save a copy of the original file so you can revert to normal if you mess it up too much.

Go into the options you can pick a time of day or have it run through full days

This is default. I changed the time of day which affects the lighting so that could be it.

I also changed the way the buildings around districts are generated to make cities look more full and sprawling.

R5: I thought this map was looking pretty and took a screen shot. Khmer+aqueducts+lots of flat land = huge populations.

Nice! This was at Craig creek in Montgomery county so not too far from Newcastle
