Re: No more mods ? no more docs ? no more maps ?
I just had a three-day weekend, but haven't had time to do anything of my own 'till now. I expect to post nation doublings of Abysia, Pythium, Man, C'tis, Arcoscephale, Caelum, Marignon, Pangaea, Vanheim, Jotunheim, T'ien Ch'i and Machaka default themes sometimes this week, and might start doubling some of the easier themes like New Era Pangaea and Vanheim themes.
I would like to create a program that writes single .dm file that replaces chosen nations with e.g. my nation replacement mods, so that a game with 3 Pangaeas, 2 New Eras, 4 base Mans and 1 Ulm could be done with only one .dm file.
I also have some ideas for creating an Ice Age mod on the lines of Saber Cherry's ancient post. To have that working I would have to create a program that generates Ice Aged .map files by reading terrains and then choosing poptypes and adding defenders, with poptypes changed to something appopriate for Ice Age and defenders being savage monsters. If I ever manage to start it, hopefully most nations will be replaced by their Ice Age variants.
I hope there are more people like me who have plans for making a mod, but not enough time just now.
