Maximum city allowed

[bilbon_s]

Hi all,

I'm searching for a way to limit the number of cities thar can be created. Do you know where this can be set ?

Thanks

you can use Python and create a CustomEventManager which increase a variable each time a city is build... to prevent building more cities you like you may can disable the city-build-option of the settlers or simply showing a msg instead of creating the city if the limit is reached

Hi,

I'm afraid the AI will still try to build settlers and become too easy to play.
But this may be a solution

Thanks

You didn't say if it's a total limit or a limit per player or per team or... so I'm assuming it's total number.

CvGameUtils.py

	def cannotFoundCity(self,argsList):
		iPlayer, iPlotX, iPlotY = argsList
		if CyGame().getNumCities() > limit:
			return True
		return False

limit being the number you want.
The AI should understand it can't found any new cities (since there's no plot where it's allowed).

You will need to activate the callback in PythonCallbackDefines.xml.

Well once cities are maxed out limit how many many settlers the AI can have.
