Yet not another earth map for CIV 6

Are you planning on placing the natural wonders in their real-world locations as well? I can hunt them down if you are, just need to know what format you want the data in.

That would be very cool.

Here is a list of Natural Wonders
http://well-of-souls.com/civ/civ6_terrain.html#natural_wonders
I will try try to find appropriate coordinate for them too

Fakoleon · Oct 25, 2016

Ok, I made a first list for Natural Wonders too, it's just coordinate in the actual Giant map, I let you convert it into code :goodjob:

Some have 3 or 4(!) tiles range, so it can be tricky to place them

Cliffs of Dover: 2 tiles > (11,71) (12,71), it seem too big for that map size, if possible, reduce it to one tile or suppress it
Crater lake: (131,65)
Dead Sea: (38,51) (38, 52)
Galapagos: (144,35)
Great Barrier: it's actually 2 tiles in Civ VI (101,23) (101,22)
Kilimanjaro: (31,27)
Mount Everest: Not sure for this one (65,54) or (65,56) or else?
Pantanal: 4 tiles (159,26) (159,27) (160,26) (159, 25)
Piopiotahi: 3 tiles (108,4) (107,3) (108,3)
Torres del Paine: (154,7) (155,6)
Tsingy de Bemaraha: (36,18)
Yosemite: (132,62) (132,61)

Like civ, some NW are very close

I don't think downsizing Natural Wonders is possible. It might be one of those case of breaking immersion for gameplay.

Katalliaan · Oct 25, 2016

These were the locations I had picked out so far:

Code:

       <Row>
            <Type>FEATURE_CRATER_LAKE</Type>
            <X>134</X>
            <Y>67</Y>
        </Row>

Cliffs of Dover: 11,71 and 12,71
Dead Sea: 38,48 and 38,49 (based on Gedemon's Jerusalem location)
Piopiotahi: 108,3, 108,4 107,3 and 108,3 (the terrain around there will need to be tweaked, of course)
Torres del Paine: 155,8 and 156,8
Yosemite: 134,60

I had a difficult time picking locations for Crater Lake and Yosemite, as that part of the continent is a bit compressed.

Mount Everest: (65,54) is super
Cliffs of Dover: 2 tiles > (11,71) (12,71) it´s not too big.... I think we must place Cliffs overall the map first?!

Dead Sea: (38,51) (38, 52) it´s to near Euphrat! (36,49) (36,48) is it exactly, but for better gameplay I prefer (37,48) (36,47)

Yosemite: (132,63) (132,62)

"I had a difficult time picking locations for Crater Lake and Yosemite, as that part of the continent is a bit compressed."

You right! The idea with Salt Lake is good!

Galapagos: (147,36) is better because you use it from south america. you have to create a new land

Fakoleon · Oct 25, 2016

Ha yes, regular cliffs placement, I can do this for my country, but it's just few % of the land mass :lol:

smartclick20 · Oct 25, 2016

Fakoleon said:
Ok, that was what I found about Ra-kedet, thanks for confirmation, so technically, Egyptian and Arabian cities are just 1 tile away
Rename Arabian one to Mecca and place it on Civ V default location could be a good compromise, if this is still historically plausible .

This a good idea.
Place for Mecca (37/42) Change the mountail to hill and make a oasis next to the city

For the NW, can you format it this way please:

Code:

        <Row>
            <Type>FEATURE_BARRIER_REEF</Type>
            <X>101</X>
            <Y>23</Y>
        </Row>

posted with the [CODE ] tag to keep the indentation if possible

using this for reference:

Code:

FEATURE_BARRIER_REEF
FEATURE_CLIFFS_DOVER
FEATURE_CRATER_LAKE
FEATURE_DEAD_SEA
FEATURE_EVEREST
FEATURE_GALAPAGOS
FEATURE_KILIMANJARO
FEATURE_PANTANAL
FEATURE_PIOPIOTAHI
FEATURE_TORRES_DEL_PAINE
FEATURE_TSINGY
FEATURE_YOSEMITE

To start, can you select only the NW that takes 1 tile ?

And if possible I'd like the Civilizations start position with the the [CODE ] tag, for a start with position as far as historically possible from each others

TIA all

smartclick20 · Oct 25, 2016

I think it is complicate to create the Cliffs of Dover. You need hills and more cliffs...

Katalliaan · Oct 25, 2016

Edited my post for the 1-tile wonders that I looked at.

I spend my holydays in south france two weeks ago. (It was great. I love your country) There was no cliffs between Rhone and the Pyrenees. You have nothing to do

Are you sure it is right? You can put the cliffs on 6 diferrent sites... :confused:

Fakoleon · Oct 25, 2016

Ok that's what I've got for 1 tile NW, ~~there is just 4 if I'm not mistaken~~
Indeed it's just 3. Edited :goodjob:

Spoiler :

EDIT: Addition of Civ and CS placement
Arabia is in Civ V default placement (Mecca, rename needed), Egyptian is in default Civ V too
~~Greece is too close, what option do we have?~~
Sparta position on Byzantium capital

@Fakoleon There's only 3 one-tile wonders - Crater Lake, Kilimanjaro, and Tsingy De Bemaraha. Everest is a 3-tile wonder.

let´s make Sparta --> Byzantium (31/60) Gorgo is something like Theodora I.

The river placement was automated on this test version, ATM my code is only exporting/importing the type of the landmass, features and rivers are added by the normal map generator.

Would it maybe be possible to release such a version too? That would be much like the earth maps included in civ 5 and would probably be better for the balance.

TheMarshmallowBear · Oct 25, 2016

Question, are continent pre-determined at this stage?

Yet not another earth map for CIV 6
