Realistic World

Description
Realistic World is a map script that aims to realistically recreate the earths biomes and starting plots in order to become more engaging for the player.

Main Points:
- This is a edited Pangaea style map script that has the ability to have inland seas and sometimes splits into continents.
- You will find larger areas of forests, plains, hills, tectonic mountain ranges and less sporadic terrain pieces jumbled together.
- There is now equator jungles.
- Rivers should be less 'all over the place'.
- No Ice. Personally i don't think it adds anything to the game except frustration. The map will randomally shift north to accommodate snow/tundra latitude.
- New Massive and Gigantic map sizes are a standard option.
- Starting plot positions have tweaked for Major, Minor and Barbarians.

Note:
After people to test for issues with the map script and or provide feedback. Please feel free to leave comments below.

Would have felt more realistic if you made it for Continents.

I think it's safe to assume that @Darkhour isn't going to be updating this to be GS compatible with his last comment and last update both being almost a year ago now despite the mods popularity and many suggestions for alternates and improvements.

If you're looking for other good map mods may I suggest "Got Lakes" or "Detailed Worlds".

Hi. Are you updating this for GS? Thanks.

Would be nice if river amount could be set during creation, rather like the Fantastical Map script.

To add more rivers to this mod, go here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\289070\1312838799\Maps\Utility

Open the file RiversLakes in Notepad or similar.
Scroll over halfway down until you see: function AddRivers()

Change riverSourceRangeDefault and seaWaterRangeDefault from 15 to something smaller like 8 or 6 and save.

@Arcadian it might be but it requires Rise and Fall.

Hi. I love the map generation. But I am a huge fan of multiple continets seperated by sea (like Earth is) Is there any chance you would try and do this for a continets map instead of Pangea? :)

Detailed Worlds is better in every way.
