My handful of bugs I've found

1. when creating a lan multiplayer game (not tried other multi modes), settings are not saved. it takes a long time to pick out every single ai opponent and all the settings you want for a game. you get to do this every time you start and the random map gives you a horrible position, which is a lot!

2. random map generation often gives absolutely laughable starting positions (settlers and warriors start on different 1 square islands, etc). another related bug is that you can start on a different island from your teammate even when "custom_continents" and "one continent per team" is picked out.

3. end of game stats don't come up after retiring a multiplayer game. what is with this? is there a way you can surrender or something so you can get the end-game stats with the map of the civs progression through the game and all the graphs etc.?

4. i can not alter AI difficulty levels. i can only change my own difficulty...(??)
if this is how you set difficulty, then why does it say all AI players are "noble" difficulty and you can't change it?

5. even with exact same settings, sometimes i spawn with a settler and warrior, then other times with a settler, warrior, and worker with seemingly no rhyme or reason.

if you guys can help me address some of these problems, i will be very thankful 8)
 
1. I never tried so I don't know.
2. Not a bug your just unlucky.
3. Never completed a game but you can see the graphs in game. It is one of the icons on the top left of your screen.
4. I got the same thing I think the only difficulty that matters is yours.
5. Did you pick different People (eg one time Elizibeth next Ghengis Khan) cause each character starts with their own unique stuff.
 
"one continent per team" is picked out. 2. Not a bug your just unlucky.
ehm Joebasalt13....read it more thouroughly please!!! one continent per team is very simple explained by:"just 1 continent for all the players within the same team" that is not a matter of luck!! unless of course my knowledge of english is so bad that i understand this very wrong and 1 per team means:"all players within a team are devided over the continents" but my english teacher didn't tought me this meaning! :) sorry for him not educating me properly!
 
5. I think I read somewhere on warlord or lower difficulty you have a slight chance of getting an extra worker at start. But don't take my word for it.
