    Mixed and changing AI difficulties on same map

    While reading another thread, I had an idea and asked myself if it is possible (via a mod) to introduce is: Random and increasing difficulty level during the game What it should do is: During start, instead of one general difficulty setting, you pick the starting one MAX difficulty for the...

    This thread is for people who are not playing SGOTM 22. If you are an active player, reading this thread will get you disqualified! Hint for lurkers: Be careful when quoting players. Some software tools alarm players when they are quoted and link them to the thread. This will make...

    Can't find info on Range Attacks (how to..?)

    I can't find out how to use the ranged attack feature of my units. I see the white markers around them, indicating the plots I could fire upon (i guess). But I don't know how to make them attack. I tried reading about it in the pedia and I tried finding it in the BUG menue. It doesn't show any...

    SGOTM 22 Pre-Announcement Discussion Thread

    Seems like I will be designing SGOTM 22 as well. I have two scenarios prepared, both quite similar in style. But I'm not sure which one to use yet. Are you ok with a lowered complexity for the next game? I wanted to give you a break from all the strange conditions and set a clear goal for...

    I love the mod but I hate the maps

    I tried the RI planet generator and the version of PW that comes with it. Both create maps that are so bad that I cant play them. I have tried diffrent settings and all of that but they allways create maps that look like spaghetti! Either its a long twisted continent, looking like a dead snake...

    Give settlers, warriors, gold to AIs at giveb time

    Would it be possible to make a small mod that does the following: At 1ad (or better: randomly between 500bc and 500ad) each surviving AI gets gifted 4 settlers and 4 archers and 200 gold. The idea would be to try to trigger the AI to settle all that unused land. Please dont tell me to use...

    Why are AIs not building citys?

    I am playing on prince. Even with a lot of free and very profitable land, the AI isnt founding citys. Well, most of them build a second one, a few of them build a third, maybe a fourth. But thats it. Most stay on one or two. Sometimes some nation builds citys non-stop, but its rare. And im...

    State of the mod

    I tried to find a list of what this mod(collection) actualy does right now, and it wasnt easy. I found that change log at http://communitas.wikia.com/wiki/Cep_History but thats only usefull if you know what you started with, plus its confusing. It references some items that are not part of...

    Quick Q: is this Petra and is it done allready?

    I want to conquer Theben, but I am unsure if that Petra is allready done. Else I would like them to finish it for me first :) I looked into the notification log and couldnt find a msg about petra being completed, but then the log only goes back for a few turns. Can anyone tell from the pic...

    Suicide automation: never seen that before

    I realized I had those useless warriors and set them to auto-explore. A few turns later one of them embarked, sailed next to a barb camp on a hill and attacked the pikemen therein. He died instantly. Did you ever see such an unprovoked suicide from an automated unit? I ask myself what...

    AI expand mod, what would it need?

    I hate it when the AI has a lot of free space to settle on but just doesnt do it. I'm thinking about learning to mod civ5 just to fix that in a way I like. Now, what do you think would need to be done? What is holding back the AI? Is it gold? Is it happyness? Is it missing wish to...

    [BUG?] Post isnt listed in statistics

    I just wanted to find a thread I posted in. So I checked my account statistics but couldnt find the post. I still remember how I loaded the old game, took screenshots and uploaded them to make the post. I'm certain I created that post, but it doesnt show up in my post listing. ...that is IF...

    Need some sort of songtext tool

    My (quite old) neighbour started a conversation with the words I hate: "You're good with computers, right?" I feel like I need to help him, but his wish was quite strange. Maybe you know a programm that can fullfill it. He wants something like a dastabase for songtext. But he doesnt want to...

    Conflict between RPG players and numbercrunshers

    I was thinking quite a lot about the diffrent wishes we players have for our Civ experience. It seems there are two main groups: One that wants a game that tries to tell an intresting story and one that wants the game to be a challenging story. And I ask myself if that conflict of intrest can be...

    The 'hill' tiles in Civ5: Why no food?

    Imagine a city founded in an area full of hills, without a river. This city would only have the +2 food from its city square and no way to get any food from other tiles. So it would be limited to size one (just forget about the granary and hospital for now, please). I ask myself what the...

    Do you like the way Civ5 portraits the diffrent nations?

    I vented some steam in some other threads allready, but I thought it would be good to ask for your opinion in a seperate thread. I think this is a very broad but also very important topic. Not that I think discussing it would change anything, but it would still be nice to know what you think...

    [G&K] Crash when opening cityscreen

    (-- Mistake : its not G&K its vanilla --) A friend of mine has to deal with crashes when he opens the city screen. These seem to occur at once, even beginning on turn1. He uses a rather up to date PC and win8. The game runs in dx11 mode. He doesnt know this forum so I opened this thread for...

    [SUG] First-Aid thread

    I'd suggest we make a First-Aid thread and sticky it on this board. The idea is to have a list of things noted there that are common tools to get a buggy game running again. Things to try before people have to make threads to get exactly those suggestions first anyway :) Many people like...
