[unionjack]

hi
im currently playing 18 civilisations on emporer level, huge map, terra.
Even if their are 2 continents and numerous islands all the civs start on just 1 continent???, is this correct

 

[The Great Apple]

Yes. That is how the terra map script works.

Some more details:

Simulates Earth: Randomly generated landmasses that roughly simulate Earth's continents!
Old World Start: All civs start in the "Old World", equivalent to Asia-Europe-Africa
New World: The "New World", equivalent of the Americas, will have to be discovered
Third World: Some small landmasses or island chains may be reachable from Old World
