[GS] June 2019 Patch: Undocumented Changes

- We broke CQUI. Again.

 

All of the Switch's "updates" (1.0.3 to 1.0.4) are undocumented.

 

It would be nice if Firaxis/Aspyr would "undocument" some iOS updates for us.

 

Maybe the reason is just everyone else not born close to stone.

 

Yeah Stonehenge went first thing like always for me. If anything the AI seems even more wonder hungry. Still mad that they taught it to build the Colosseum .

I have in my entire civ 6 experience built stonehenge once, which was when nobody else could and I built it in the medieval era. It gives an apostle if there are no GPs left apparently.

 

Yeah, makes sense. I suspected it was just a quirky game.

 

This may been pure 'luck of the draw' but in three Post-Patch Starts, I have seen 'clusters' of Strategic Resources: 3 - 4 Horses all within 2 - 3 tiles of each other, 2 - 3 Iron on adjacent hills. I haven't really had enough starts or played late enough to see if it applies to later-game Strategic Resources, but Pre-Patch I never saw this kind of Strategic resource clustering, even when I played with Abundant Resources enabled.

 

Can confirm. 2 patches of iron, 2 patches of horses, adjacent. Other strategic resources seem normal.

 

Has the wording on Casa de Contratacion changed? It's different to the wiki. Now reads 'not on your original capital's continent'. Same wording on colonial taxes... does this mean we can't exploit these with Dido anymore?

 

Yeah I'm getting this too. My three rolls have all had two or three horses and zero iron within range of the capital, but a bunch of iron clustered somewhere else

 

Smoke from volcanoes... that's new, isn't it? I don't remember seeing it before, and I haven't heard anyone talking about it.

 

Nope, they smoke. A sign they might blow in a few turns.

 

The Save/Load game menus show the minimap of the game selected. Is that new?

 

Yes. New and in the patch notes.

 

I didn't read anything in the notes, but the barbs go crazy again.

 

Could someone confirm that the zoom out distance hasn't been increased? It feels like I can zoom out further, but it's probably in my head.

 

If it helps, you can make the minimap full screen with one of the buttons on top of it.

 

There was something in the patch notes about a bug with barb swarms being fixed. They really need an intensity option for barbs.

 

Basically, a previous patch broke the Barbarian raiding logic. This patch fixed it. So, if a Barbarian Scout discovers your city and gets back to his camp, then that camp will spawn a raiding party to attack your city. Just like it used to!
