If you don't get to this soon, I'll be home for thanksgiving in about 3 1/2 weeks, so I'll make my proposal then.

Quick question: What are the Normal and Broader areas defined in Areas.py for? And what should be these areas in comparison to the core and/or birth areas? Are there any references for it or some place in the game like the WB where they can be viewed?

They are somewhat but barely used. I will get rid of them completely with the Rise and Fall rewrite.

I expect it to be finished within a few days. Maybe even today. Then, it depends on when the PR is accepted for others to use.

I've been looking for something like this for years now, and now that someone made it, of course I had to make it happen, real quick.
I think I just did not make indie India strong enough there. But we can always look back and fix things
Currently having "personal issues" on map consistency and I'm still fixing the 1700 AD scenario I made lol my progress is so slow

I made the fixes for all the info in this file, but when I saved it again my overlays and UI stopped working, can someone please explain this to me, I had to revert also changing the consts.py file where I had tried to increase the size of the map in its calculations, anyways, this stuff should be legit, if I did something wrong, please tell me what

It did not work for me, I tried using the files you send and it still does not show up. not sure why
(EDIT)
I can tell that I use the latest git (not sure how it works but I still download from the github rar rather than official release since I assume it is still a stable build, should I download the official release instead? Or what version do you use?)
(EDIT AGAIN)
I tried to uninstall and reinstall Civ 4, and put in a completely clean copy of the mod and then input your fix, tested, it worked, then I inserted my own modified areas.py and it worked, so I must have had some issues with my files

I don't think you had to do all those stuff just to fix your copy. I guess there are typos in your version of the code. Have you tried proofreading or something? Also, what specifically did you fix there? I've made a lot of changes in my code already so I can't bother myself to replace files anymore, so I'd really like to have a clue on what you did
PS: I guess someone (maybe merijn_v1?) also updated the religion maps aside from the region maps. Just saw that last night. Coolbeans!

Religion maps work slightly different than the other maps. Instead of having a value for each tile, they assign a value to all tiles in a certain region. For example, all tiles in the India and Deccan region are set to core tiles for Hinduism. So these maps are automatically updated when the region maps are updated.
That's the reason why the religionmaps have no export button. It is also much easier to set set a new religious value to a region directly in the python file.

Oh, that's cute! Haven't bothered studying the updated Religion.py code in detail, so I don't have much clue. Thank you!
PS: MORE REGIONS, PLEASE. The new map badly needs them.
Would it be possible to allow editing of the region map through WB, though? I'm itching to add more regions already.

Also, does anyone here know where Bautos42 uploaded his Python code updates for the big map? He once mentioned having updated resource spawns already, as well as birth areas and barbarian spawns, but the only code I can find in this thread are the ones merijn_v1 uploaded that just got bumped up. 
I even had to update the birth and core areas myself, so I'm not even sure if I just wasted time and effort or what.

Last post for now, sorry for the potential spam. Here is my take on the Italian Peninsula issue. Just shifted Corsica down, added a land tile, and edited the river. What can you say about this?

The current editor already allows changing the regionmap. It also has a working export function, similar to the other maps. However, it can only changes tiles to already existing regions. Adding more regions would require you to add the new ones first in the code. (They do not need to be on the map though, just existing in the code is enough)
Btw, the code for religionmaps is in RegionMap.py, not in Religions.py.

More Screenshots please!!!!
Also, I don't like combining Corsica and Sardinia - I'm working on a solution that will solve both that problem and the Salonica/Belgrade spacing thing

I'd love to see more screenshots of various parts of the bigger map game world at various times. I can't play DoC at college (I don't have a windows computer here), and I'm excited about the new mapOf what, specifically? Do you need zooming in or something?
Which new regions do you want to add? Maybe we should have an open discussion about that aspect. Thought about it for some time but couldn't come up with additional regions that would be needed (main concerns are city art styles and religion spread), although I'm open to other perspectives?PS: MORE REGIONS, PLEASE. The new map badly needs them.
Rome and Naples should be 1W, maybe Florence too. Not sure if Florence AND Milan is a good idea on this map to be honest.
WE KNOW
