The game is on! I have posted the full details of the map / game options on discord (if for whatever reason you doānt want to use discord I can post them here).
Transparency disclaimer: I did load the map in Observer to ensure the following checks were true:
- All players are separated by ocean
- Coastal bias civs spawned on coast
- Citystates did not spawn outside of the player continents
Aside from that, I am as innocent as the whitest of snows!
Goody Hut spawn rate has been increased to x1.75 since we have no natural wonders or players to meet for era score.
Citystate list has been updated in the Game Details up above on PYDT.

My bad, I didnāt think it would carry into the save as a mandatory mod. Itās just a small useful button.
For everyone else, all static BBGs are here: Dropbox
If it does what I think it does, thatās huge though simple.
Back to normal after restart. Which is good b/c the button names eventually started disappearing altogether. And, I didnāt have them all memorized!
alright glhf everyone
i feel like iām either going crazy or there is some sort of bug in this game/map.
i am trying to build a mine over Mercury on a Plains (Hills) Rainforest tile. I have researched Mining. Thatās enough, right? I shouldnāt have to have Bronze Working to build a mine here, should I?
Iām just trying to build the mine not chop the rainforest.
there was a bug in BBM that caused this issue (it is fixed now). you need to chop the rainforest and then will be able to make a mine.
The save shouldnāt be using BBM though. Itās a damned shame, but I guess in the basegame thereās no mine-able resources that spawn on rainforestsā¦
oh okay. I forgot. it was a BBG bug not BBM.
The bug is that BBG tries to put a mine-able resource (mercury) on a tile with features (wood/rainforest). but it is not possible to make a mine on mercury tiles with wood/rainforest. so you need to chop the feature first.

ugh, ok thanks. i guess iāll take my turn.
I donāt know if we have any rules about City States in this game, but I have just declared war on one in order to free a settler which had become trapped by their territory and I wasnāt going to get enough envoys anytime soon.
I donāt plan to conquer them though. Probably.
Conquering 1 CS is fine (and no more), declaring war on a CS is always fine

Da congress.
I suggest +100% towards City Center for something neutral that should let people catch up if behind (cheap watermills and the likes)
Thenā¦ no points towards Admirals. Sorry!
