[GS] Ok so specific question, is there a way to specifically adjust Barbarian spawn rate and aggressiveness in a mod?

[Mark388]

So to make things a bit more understandable... I created a map mod, but I am finding the barbarians to be quite aggressive on Chieftain level of the game like they are perhaps Prince level. So I am guessing during the creation of the map, the game decided to up the barbarian spawn rate because of less land..

Is there a way to manually adjust this in the code? I find no table for it on the map mod..

Hey Mark388,

You can absolutely modify this, lots of mod examples such as "Nere's Better Barbarian Clans mode", "Sukritact's Barbarians--", "Revenge of the Barbarians", and "Less Advanced Barbarians". Do a Steam Workshop search for "Barbarians"!

Here are just some of the things you can play with:
