"You have been defeated" dilemma

[Scuzzlebutt]

Hello,
I'm doing a little modding to a map with texteditor. Now I'd like to erase a few of the preset civilizations since I rather not have them in the scenario I'm making. I've already erased their settlers and units from the map via Worldbuilder and after that I've went on to erase the player entries from the text file. Then I change the team numbers accordingly so there wont be gaps. When I start the game, I just get a "you've been defeated" message, as for some strange reason none of the settlers are generated.
I just don't get why this is happening, since changing the player list shouldn't be a big modification. I've read the tutorial, and I've also done something like this previously and back then I had no problems. The scenario works just fine if I don't try to alter the list of players.

Any help would be appreciated

I'd look at the beginunit and endunit lines first.

Ok I checked those lines, so minor things there. I allowed debugging and the key issue seems to be the following: once I get to player selection I get two python errors. Can't find enum for type tag leader_roosevelt and -//- for tag civilization_spain. For some reason the first is fixed by changing Roosevelt to Washington but the latter won't go away although the lines are totally fine. Then I also get this at startup:

Again if I don't change the player order everything runs ok.

I allowed debugging...

How do you get that to work? Do you mean the debug mode with cheat mode turned on? And if so, how do you get the console open if you're instantly defeated?

Unless you are using a mod that changed the CvWBDesc.py, line 1706 is attempting to set a civic for a player.

So check your initial civics specifications for each player. One (or more) of them is probably wrong.
