In general, there's so much undocumented stuff in RFC that it needs a manual.
In fact the code itsself is the manual

What is BUG? (I read the FAQ but can't understand it)

In general, there's so much undocumented stuff in RFC that it needs a manual.
Venice:
Spoiler :
Add in rivers to the left and right to simulate the protection of Venice and to stop Germany from so easily taking the region.
![]()
East Russia:
Spoiler :
Distributed resources in order to encourage more accurate city placement along with more benefits for settling them
![]()
New England and Quebec:
Spoiler :
New York and Boston REALLY need to be moved down one for gameplay, aesthetics, and historicity. Added Montreal and a wheat in order to make Canada more buffed against the US
![]()
Mexico and Central America:
Spoiler :
Moved a mountain in order to prevent a Pacific/Atlantic city south of Mexico City
Moved Guatamala one up to prevent the same issue
![]()
Libya and Sardinia:
Spoiler :
Added in Bengazi, and moved down the clam. Moved Trablus to the 600 AD position and moved the Uranium one up. Made Sardinia prettier by adding a town (for 600 and 1700 map)
![]()
The Orients
![]()
Added two teas in Japan, replacing one silk and replacing the silver which moved down to Nagasaki to replace the moved gold. Moved the whale. Moved Kagoshima to Nagasaki. Added a coal where Sapporo is to increase production there and give Japan coal. Added a coal near Vladivostok to make it more important. Added uranium a little south of the Hunan Province of China. Added fish near Taiwan. Removed a coal from Manchuria and moved it towards the desert west of Beijing. Moved coal in Korea to favor Seoul's cross. Moved the clam up away from Taiwan, but still reachable from it.
Palestine:
Spoiler :
Added river in Israel to simulate the fertile farmlands of the area, along with the strategic defense of the region. Changed the mine in Cyprus to a fort. Made the right part of Crete a hill and added a town for the 600 and 1700 maps.
![]()
Greenland and Iceland:
Spoiler :
The big change! The picture speaks for itself. Looks better and is accurate.
![]()
Great Britain and Denmark
Spoiler :
Moves whale to favor Edinburg, while moving resources meant for Newcastle away from the proximity. Added in Newcastle in the 1700 map. Added in an oil next to Denmark for Germany to take with plastics.
![]()
The Caribbean!
The image speaks for itself. I did extensive research and changed the area around.
![]()
EDIT, spices on Jamaica, not sugar. Sugar on Puerto Rico, not spices
Bangladesh
Spoiler :
Swapped the banana up one tile so Bangladesh can be built.
![]()
Southwest US and Tijuana
Spoiler :
Added in Arizona by making the copper a flatland plain floodland and moving the cotton of California to Arizona as a flatland plain floodland. Put a resource next to Tijuana to promote Mexican settlement.
![]()
Alaska and British Columbia!
Added in another oil in Alaska, allowed more realistic settling of Alaska. Opened up a passage from Washington to Alaska.
![]()
I always add a Rice or a Iron/Stone resource on Taiwan as to make Taipei settle-worthy.
It already is. You've never built the Great Cothon on Taibei?
Now we might finally settle down Phoenix! But I'd say make Juneau settleable. It is, after all, the state capital. i like the way you think, as the AI, at least for me, always settle down Oaxaca and creates a Pacific/Atlantic city. Which is kinda smart. I always add a Rice or a Iron/Stone resource on Taiwan as to make Taipei settle-worthy.
On Venice, well, that does work for the 1700AD. For the 600AD however, Venice will indeed be the only reason why Germany won't overrun Italy head-on. I'm eager to see that in action.
Hey, thanks for the compliments.
I have to disagree with Juneau for the same reason we have New York City instead of Albany. Capitals don't really matter, it's the productive cities that count.
I like the way you think I think.
Mmm. Except Taipei, to my experience, is more of a financial city as opposed to a productive city. For that, I think a fish does well.
In action, it slows down Germany but not enough to stop them from preventing Italian spawning.
EDIT: I see you're from California. HAH! Man, we're gonna have a lot of friendly rivalries dude.
Why don't you support New York's?
EDIT: Florida didn't have good sugar canes until about 1960. For that I think there should be a marsh 2 tiles south of Florida, and a jungle east of the marsh, and a hamlet for Miami.
Mountains and desert hills: western Colorado all the way to the Sierra Nevada and from the Missouri river south to Mexico should be this way.
California: San Francisco should be able to reach the gold, or other coastal cities. Needing to reach California and Nevada gold and silver from Utah, Colorado, or Arizona is wrong.
Colorado Gold: Reason that area was initially settled, and since you can't farm desert hills in DoC unless you are Mexico, it makes sense.
Last note to anybody supporting massive map changes: People like their map. Though it has some flaws, for right now it works for the most part. It encourages historical relations and developments and balances out civilizations fairly well. You have your regions you want to do something about and others will have others, with people not caring or wanting to change the others. In my opinion, the current map is a wonderful compromise as it already exists, and has for quite a long time.
Only Southern California needs to bring in their water from other places.
It's a bit disingenuous to label the entirety of California as a bunch of water thieves by that alone,
also considering California is vastly culturally diverse from NorCal, SoCal to fifty miles inward and everything else in between.
"Bankrupt" is amusing as well, considering it's those of us in California that shoulder a huge chunk of the tax burden in and for the nation whereas Oregon does not, even factoring in a progressive income tax.
In fact, Oregon is in the bottom third when it comes to a per capita basis.
I didn't realize that, so I guess sugar isn't very good there after all. I think southern Florida should have an extra food resource though, otherwise Miami won't grow very much. What if we added Citrus as a resource? It seems to be a pretty important resource and could be added to California, Arizona, Texas and Florida.
Come at me! Sail here on your surfboards and bring the Terminator! We have rolling mountains and cascading fortresses of forests and gorges to beat you back to the deserts where you spawn!I do believe that Royal is joking. But if he isn't, then.
Great work on these map changes RT. I've wanted some serious changes to the map for a while now but I was too lazy to make my own thread for it. I support all of your suggestions, except for the New York and Arizona ones. I have some big suggestions for America in general where I tried to make it so that the mountains work better and there is better and more accurate resource distribution.
On second thought, maybe two cows is too much for New York and Arizona/New Mexico could use another copper.
EDIT: Oh and you can't see it, but I added a fish south of Florida instead of clams. And maybe there's too much marsh in the South.
