Still here, been extremely busy with both jobs, had almost 0 computer time. I think I logged my test game to turn 400 only. Hopefully work will calm down after March and I can get back to this side project.

And this will be another major event. 42000BP 800 years long, or 4 turns at the 195 years per turn. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/02/19/world/magnetic-fields-earth-intl-scli-scn/index.html

Hello again, been super busy with work. But I do have a free second to go over a few things. Update to the timeline in the game. Played the test game to 200 turns. Saves are around 3700 so far. The year to turn ratio changed on turn 195, or 49997BC. Now the turns starting 196 are 195 years per...

Continued: Agriculture: This is my other issue with the prehistoric start. It is a classic chicken and the egg scenario with a misstep missing. At turn 36(172kBP), I use my free gatherer and get wheat to my city. This is not even close to historically right. The free gather should be able at...

Some ideas for tech in the prehistoric era. There are a few areas here that I feel are not historically right and want to bring to light. Maybe changes can be made? Controlled fire: I feel that this should be the first tech to unlock, and only tech. Controlled fire and the wonder captured fire...

Timeline from the test game so far. Turn 0-26 200,000-180,000BP Similar climate to now, slight cooling. Turn 26-89 180,000-130,000BP Riss Glacial period. Rapid cooling, was a worst averaged ice age than the last one. Not as deep of an ocean drop at the very end, but a more prolonged cold period...

Some ideas for the barbarians for the Gem2.0/3.0 game. Have 1 slot be for the Neanderthals, and change the other slot to the Denisovans. Let me explain. Both of these archaic humans left Africa before AMH's did, and were already established in their respective areas at the start of the game...

I will probably make 2 maps of the 20 that are for the the min and max for the sunspot/solar cycles. These 2 plus the 2020 base map will be toggled back and forth based on the established timeliness for the solar grand minimums and maximums. Once the holocene reaches to about 1000BC there will...

At work now on break, wanted to go some of the research I'm been doing. So it looks like northern Africa had multiple river systems that fed into the mediterranean sea, and Arabia was much wetter with multiple river valley's flowing to what was the Persian gulf, but in a lower sea level it was...

Update GEM3.0 climate simulator. Been doing a bunch of research into this. I am running a game currently with Sumerian using my old world final map from above, using long speed. I am making an excel spreadsheet with every turn, making notes on the year, the amount of years per turn, what tech is...

Update: While trying to add the new civs for the new world start I ran into a roadblock and need help. How do you remove a civ from the pool of civs in a worldbuilder save? I tried killing them off, they just show up (DEAD). I used the kill feature on the player edit mode, and it removes them...

There will be 2 maps to start with, old and new world start. I need the modders to finish adding the right civs and setting it up so you can play all 40 at the start instead of 5. Longer term there will be a scenario (really a MOD), GEM2.0 earth simulator that will incorporate some of the...

Final Map is done. Old world start is done, will add the new world players and subtract the civs that were added that were extra civs and have the New world save later today. The only civ that will need to be added to the new world start will by the Navajo tribe for western North America. Added...

I'm a bartender. Currently working part time do to covid, so my hours suck. I work another PT job too so I'm pretty busy. I did my valentine's stuff with the wife in the AM so I'm good.

Map is 99% done. Got called into work today, will finish tomorrow and post everything.
