City placement

[tmarcl]

Because I am a fan of using all of my hexes for each city, I changed the global xml to have 7 tiles between cities as the default. However, for whatever reason, when I started a new game, the AI is still able to place cities at the original default - 3 tiles away. Did I miss something?

So, I figured out an answer to this question: Apparently, it's not enough to just change the settings in \Steam\steamapps\common\Sid Meier's Civilization V\assets\Gameplay\XML, you've also got to change (or possibly just change, I haven't tried to be sure) the settings in\Steam\steamapps\common\Sid Meier's Civilization V\assets\DLC\Expansion\Gameplay\XML.

Hopefully, this helps anyone else who might have had this question.

It's better to create a mod than to change the original XML files.
