Before I get to some questions about the BAT mod, I want to say great job. I'd gotten a bit bored of CIV the last couple months, and with this mod I'm right back in it. The BUG/BAT team puts out my favorite mod by far. If you guys decided to make this purchase only, I would happily buy it.

As to my question, I use a map script called planet generator for most of my Civ games as I like larger maps. This generator came included with BUG, but for some reason does not work with BAT. The map generator shows up as a map type in custom games but does not have any options. I've included some pictures to illustrate my point. If you guys can guide me in the right direction to fixing the planet generator script, I'd appreciate it.

Good its not just me.

Neither Planet Generator or Smart map have their special options available when the BAT mod is installed...

Maybe its a Chicago thing.. :)
 
When you originally installed BUG, did you do the single-player install? If so, the map was originally placed in the My Games / BTS / PublicMaps folder. BAT should be installing it to its own PublicMaps folder. Try removing it from the main one or vice versa.

Another thing to try is to rename PublicMaps to PrivateMaps in the BAT Mod folder. This is just a guess, however.
 
Thanks for your help guys. I copied the map from mydocs/mygames/bts/public maps to programfiles/firaxisgames/civ/bts/public maps and now it's working.

As far as the resources being flawed? Would you mind elaborating on it? I've never noticed a big difference.
