Beacons when starting a new game?

[cobbaut]

I just started a new game (SVN from two days ago, with the large civpack) and noticed that all reef tiles have beacons. I am not sure whether this is intended (I had to build them with workboats in the previous game).

That mapscript is buggy, what is name of it so @Toffer90 can fix it?

@Toffer90

The mapscript is C2C_Custom_continents - Cylindrical, gigantic World Size 144x96 - Temperate Climate - Medium Sea Level.

I will try to fix.
I'm wondering if I should add a tag to CvFeatureInfo for this.
What are the chances to new features being added that should not be placed by map generator?

 

[Toffer90]

Pretty sure setting <iAppearance>-1</iAppearance> (in the feature xml) will stop those features from being placed on map by all map scripts.
All the scripts use this condition for placing random feature at a plot.
if random() * 10000 < GC.getFeatureInfo(iI).getAppearanceProbability():

We don't need a new tag.

Edit: Well, it helped, now those beacon reefs are only placed within fat cross of players starting positions, so appearance probability is ignored in the dll code that spruce up the yields surrounding the starting position for all players. That's easy to fix though.

K, Problem fixed on git now.

I'm getting this bug on Tectonic.

I'm getting this bug on Tectonic.

It could be Great Reef with beacon/lighthouse, as it wasn't blocked from generating until recent SVNs
