Returning from Europe to non-default "Access to Europe" tile

[ntz]

Hello,

it seems to me that no matter from where I will sail back to Europe return always happens to central "Access to Europe" set of tiles (ie tiles where you start on given map) ? So actually there's no way to return back to from where I had entered into the Europe with particular ship ? Which renders distant colonies just not very reasonable ...

Is there a way to somehow influence where I will return from Europe ?

thanks

The We The People mod gives you a nice new world popup map to pick roundabout where you want to go. I am pretty sure this was included in the TAC mod as well... So you should probably at least play that mod instead of the plain version. If you insist on playing the unmodded version you could try to separate out the dialog from the mods that allows you to choose where you land, which means you will be making your own mod. I can try to help you if you really want to attempt that.

I wouldn't dare to ask .. oh-my, it's so generous offer, thank you ..

I am really very casual player and simply in general I don't consider things around computer games any important that I would spent (or ask somebody else to do for me) an additional time with that with some research or hacking ... If this can be easily or quickly done I'd love to have it and I would say perhaps somebody else might find use for it because this is among top little annoying things that I consider as a mis-behaviour that are in Civ4Col ..

My point is that The Authentic Colonization mod has probably fixed most of those annoying things, so why would you not just play that version instead, or the We The People mod? But I will check how difficult it would be to just have that one thing changed.

hmm, wait .. it actually somehow works, vessels are returning to the original point where they entered to the Europe departure ... but it seems to be sometimes not reliable and/or buggy because they can forget it and return back to the central point

@Ramstormp - thank you ... well, I just like original game ... I was trying We The People Mod but it seemed to me a bit big for my casual playing .. I like to quickly play one campaign or two rather than be playing one campaign for weeks
