I have a hunch ruins are added when creating the game, and not before. I will launch a test game to check that though. Well, the hunch was quite wrong, so I guess I forgot to turn off the ruins when creating the map (I do both just to make sure, when I don't forget...).

Geo, the ruin thingies appear even when normal ruins are removed from the files. I think it is because of the techareas files, and the flag "Can only be found" (or some such name). On the other hand, both players can agree not to use these things if they do appear by mistake, and/or they could be modded out of the game by common agreement. I think I will be using my no ruins safety measure from now on, which will not be needed by the players. That way, even if I do forget once more to turn the ruins off at one stage or another, it won't be half as bad for the players themselves.

So Slynky, do you want me to give it yet another try, with another foolproof measure to make sure those ruins are out of the game? Your idea about loading an Ancient Empire and checking makes sense too; don't ask me why I didn't think of it before.
