Hi!

As many of u found out the AI is broken when u create an own map. The AI won´t found colonies and just sail arround exploring. Farther shipunits dont have the "autosail Europe" icon-just when they sail on a "sailing to erurope territory. Has anynone an idea how to fix that?

Here's what I did for my map:
Find the Western Hemisphere map file and open it in a text editor

Find your map file and do the same.

In the Western Hemisphere map, find the section that begins to detail the actual tiles of the map. This should start with "BeginPlot" or something like that. Copy everything above this.

Find the start of the plots in your map file. You'll probably find the section prior to this in your version is significantly longer. Replace everything above this line with the section you copied from the Western Hemisphere map.


What this will do is rerandomise the AI placings, as well as let you set things like difficulty and speed when you load the map. This seems to restart the AI, and I've had no problems with the AI not founding colonies.

I'm still working on that bug. :)

Thx I´ll try this :)
