i remember thinking about the water nation placement but its been awhile and i cannot remember my rationalization

it can always be changed though. i just hope it doesnt screw up our current game :P

MAYBE (i dont know) i put the water nation there because i wanted them to have a disadvantage for some reason.

vfb,
Subtract 512 from the terrain value for the province that you want to allow as a starting province. For example, province 66's terrain value is 516 (SEA + NOSTART). Change it to 4. Any changes you make to the .map file will only affect new games.

(Thanks again for this great map DakaSha!

)

Thanks Ballbarian!

I didn't know "nostart" was part of the terrain bitmask.

It looks like a connection is missing between provinces #40 and #48.

Not sure if this happens every time, or if its just a fluke, but at one point when i attacked the volcano, several of the burning ones were starving, and some diseased. also, the burning one's slaves burned, and he cast useless holy spells. not sure if any of these are fixable, but just thought i'd mention it.

oh maybe not enough supplies. i didnt think it would matter though. ballbarian? ^^

DakaSha · #8 June 9th, 2009, 02:29 AM

also whats a good item to give the commander to raise the supplies up?

at least this is being tested now :P

Starvation is an issue for independents.
An easy fix is to use the #additem command to give Endless Bag of Wine and/or Enormous Cauldron of Broth to commanders.

Examples:
#additem "Endless Bag of Wine"
#additem "Enormous Cauldron of Broth"

I think the Summer Sword gives a supply bonus as well and might be more thematic in this situation.
