More crowded map

[CraigBee]

I've tried many many mods to make a map with more player slots. For example, by default, only 6 players are allowed on a Tiny map. I would love to play with 12 players on a Tiny map. But there seems to be some sort of hard coded limit, or something I am missing. I've seen mods that make the map bigger, so I tried using those to make a smaller map with more players, but it hasn't worked yet. Am I missing anything, or is it not currently possible to add more players to a map?

In GlobalParameters.xml there is the following defined

<Row Name="START_DISTANCE_MAJOR_CIVILIZATION" Value="9" />

and

<Row Name="START_DISTANCE_MINOR_CIVILIZATION" Value="5" />

I think the second is for City States. So basically the map has to be a certain size so that all the civs start a certain distance away. At least that's what I think is happening

You might try to change the MaxPlayers parameter in the config data.

<MapSizes>
       <Row MapSizeType="MAPSIZE_TINY" Name="LOC_MAPSIZE_TINY_NAME" Description="LOC_MAPSIZE_TINY_DESCRIPTION" MinPlayers="2" MaxPlayers="6" DefaultPlayers="4" MinCityStates="0" MaxCityStates="10" DefaultCityStates="6" SortIndex="20" />
