I converted the Archipelago map from civ 4 for a little variation. I haven't had much time to play test it, so a little bit of feed back would be nice.

Nice, Map Scripts are so needed. I just dled this and will let you know what I find. :goodjob:
 
Gave it a try and it is pretty good. Everything seems to end up looking like Snaky Islands though. Probly the fault of all the maps being so small.

All in all good job, other then an official patch, Map Scripts are what this game needs. :goodjob:
 
While playing on a large map with high sealevel and many small islands, none of the other AI players ever settled anywhere. There were numerous excellent, resource-rich islands, yet after 150 turns(normal speed), they still had not settled. Also, only half of the native civilizations I had specifically activated appeared on the map.

I was playing as Portugal with the Age of Discovery 2 mod, do you think that could be the problem?

I only play the vanilla version of Col, and I haven't seen that. But there does seem to be an AI bug for some custom maps. Maybe the mapscript generated a map that the AI can't handle, or you could be right and it's the AOD2 Mod. I'll have to look into it.

It's a shame that a similar mapscript isn't included in the game itself, this game should have more than 2 lousy map scripts.

I don't know why either, that conversion took me maybe 4 hours and most of that was learning python. So I doubt it was the effort required. That's why I brought up the AI bug.
