Uh, Gandalf, it doesn't show in the game. The game actually reads the color of the pixel next to the white pixel and overlays it on the white pixel in the map display, so you won't see which province is where on a completely black map.

Kewl. I always have those flags showing so I took it for granted that it was under the flag. Even better. We can make the dungeon section of the map black on black.

Sounds like that would be fun to experiment with.

Are there any sites that could be added to the provinces (or any other map modding mechanism) in order to make all battles in those provinces subject to darkness. I am thinking along the lines of the Agarthan cave city, but without the fortress or other effects. Dungeons should be dark, no?

I am not thinking about an entirely black/dark map, but rather a map with dungeon sections.

[Gandalf Parker]

The new terrain of cave should do that. Im not sure how much its been implemented but thats what its supposed to be fore.

If a god is added to the map file, and the nation isnt in the game, the game creation blows up. That means that you cant add gods for nations or eras which might not get chosen for the game. I would rather that a god added was more "used IF the nation is chosen". Putting a #computerplayer line doesnt seem to help either.

How about map commands for temperature of a province. That would help maps that are trying to create a world with polar, temperate, tropical zones. For simplicity maybe make it match the games temperature ratings -3 to +3. And of course not be cumulative.

edited: hmmm for playability it might be best to make that -2 thru +2. That would mean that a -3 temp nation could drive a +2 temp province to -1. Still a hassle but not deadly.
