Civ5 multiplayer PRO map script
Description:
Another mirrored map for players who like to have ideally equal starting spots. It is script dedicated to 1v1 game with City State, barbs camps, ruins...
This map uses Leszek Deska invert mirroring algorithm from LDeska script.
It makes mirror of all element of the game:
1) landmass, resources, natural wonders...
2) Players starts positions,
3) City State starts positions,
4) Barbs Camps (with active barb warrior),
5) Ruins,
6) Players Teams (one team on left , second on right)
I have added some Advanced Setup menu with options to make MultiPlayer game more attractive:
1) additional human units from start added by map script.
2) additional CS units from start added by map script.
3) El Dorado erasing
4) uranium, horse, iron, quantity setting
5) lux types qty setting,
6) teams positions setting (random or frontline, distance short or long)
7) permanent war option (game will start with permanent war between human players. ALWAYS_WAR for games without CS and NO_CHNAGE_WAR->PEACE for game with CS.)
8) "Map setup description" popup window
9) free road between players start positions as an option
10) Extra gold option
11) Extra tech option
12) Team handicap option
13) City size option
14) Wonders limit option
15) Target score option
16) Turn based units movement
17) some map configuration option.

To install you have to just unpack below rar into your civ5 folder: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\sid meier's civilization v\
You have to overwrite two game files and restart civ5.
Warning: do not put it in "My Documents\..." - it will cause problems when other player will have it in correct location and you will try to play together.
You have to restart your CIV after you have copied map script file!
It was tested with patch 1.0.1.511
TO DO
1) add city traits mirroring (now script only sorts available CS by trait)-> possible when firaxis add AddMinorCiv() function or SetCivTrait()
HAVE FUN!
