Little questions & answers thread

Yes, they spawn in the same spot - but they are often back to hostile! Rarely friendly, neutral at best.
 
Hi, I've tried testing this myself and looking it up but there still doesn't seem to be a hard consensus so just to double check based on others' experiences:
Only coastal settlements can generate treasure fleets, right?
ie. If I settle a town (town A) on the coast, which does not have any treasure resources, and then do an inland settle (town B) connected to it, which does have treasure resources, town A won't spawn treasure resources on town B's behalf?

Correct. Town A won't spawn treasure resources on Town B's behalf.
 
Not really. What they said was that your current suzerained CS will always start as an IP with a friendly status in the next age.
Ah, ok. Though I noticed they were new IPs, but their statuses became neutral not friendly. The only thing that carried over from the previous age was their spawn tile.
 
That makes more sense! I checked my memory of my most recent game, and antiquity ended with two IPs directly south of my settlements, both of which I had suzereined. They reappeared as neutral in exploration. What threw me, was a third spawned in the same small area, as an enemy, and I hadn't remembered that there were originally only two.
 
Why does the AI go after CS so aggressively? They just love wiping them all out. I've only done it a few times and the reward seemed lackluster.
Since 1.2.0 I've noticed they are wayyy less likely to disperse them than before. There were even a couple unsuzerained ones left at the end of the era last game.
 
Why can't I put a shipyard here and here?

I've noticed the same. I managed to get through exploration in a deity 1.2 game where the AI only killed off one CS. But I noticed José killing one off immediately after starting modern. I will have to play more to see how it plays out. Not ready to pass judgement yet :)

I'm hoping that the devs decide to give the CS some stronger units. Their riflemen (?) get picked off really easily by the AI cuirassiers. Alternatively they could be given walled cities. Or maybe both.
 
Can I prevent Napoleon from appearing in my games? Seriously, I'm getting tired of that dude...he's been in every game I started. Is there some bias in the files I can change to make him appear less, or prevent him outright? I know I can select which civs are in the game, but I see no way to set which civs NOT to have in the game...
 
This is probably due to the fix in 1.2.0 where IPs without units left no longer auto-disperse after some time. Apparently it was a thing.
It was. I went to war over an IP pre1.2. The AI was able to kill all its units and I was able to place a unit in the camp so he couldn't disperse it.

It just disappeared after 2 or 3 turns!

Were there AI ship nearby? Ships no longer can disperse independents if they have unit on the tile, but I'm not sure if it works with any unit or just with units of this independent power.

It was a land locked IP with one of my units in all 6 tiles surrounding it.

There is no “no Napoleon” button but you can manually choose your opponent leaders in game setup. I have the same Napoleon problem, so I block him (and Confucius) from my games.
