Free City States [Revived]

Do you also wonder why Barbarian Clans can turn into City-States (with Barbarian Clans Mode Active) but Free Cities cannot? Well, here is your Answer:

With this Mode, Free Cities have a chance to turn into a City-State durring a Game (not tied to Barbrian Clans Mode).

Support:

Buy me a Coffee if you like this Mod and want to see more like it. Your Support is also helping me getting forward with my 4Xpansion Pass Project for Civilization VI[forums.civfanatics.com], which is a Pass of 6 Mod Packs that introduce many new Game Mechanics/Features and old Ones from Previous Game Iterations, as well as many QoL Improvements. Thanks a lot!!

Every turn there is a Chance that a rebelling Free City will turn into a new City-State. The newly created City-State will get the nearby Units of the rebelling Free City and it will inherit the Population of the old City.

Note:
- Only Cities that were NOT Original Capital Cities or City-States and do not have any World Wonder can turn into a City-State.
- This mod allows the Player to reserve Slots for City-States so they can spawn later in the Game (reserving them for the Free Cities that may turn into these City-States - default Value is 50%)*. In order to do that this Mod changes their Starting Locations. In most Cases the Start Positions of City-States will be ok, if you do not use a huge Amount of City States in your Game. You can use my Customization VI Mod that increases the Amount of Players (Major and Minor) to bypass this Inconvenience.
*If You select, for example, 10 City-States in the Set-Up-Menu, and the 'Percentage of reserved (Free) City-States' Parameter is set to 50%, then Only 5 will be generated at the Start of the Game. The rest will be reserved.

Needs Rise and Fall or Gathering Storm DLC in order to work.

NOTE:

This Mod is just an update of Free City States by Tiramisu, that isn't currently working/supported. I only updated it, so Credits should go to the original Author. If the Original Author wants me to remove this Mod from the Steam Workshop then I will do it.

This Mod is updated with the Author's Permission.

Free City-State Conversion Probability:

Sets the Base Conversion Probability for converting a suitable Free City to a new City-State durring a Game ( Default Value: 12% )*.

*If the Free City is damaged this Chance will decrease based on Damage.

Percentage of reserved (Free) City-States:

Sets the % Percentage of reserved City-States to spawn from Free Cities instead of starting as City-States at the start of the Game ( Default Value: 50 ).

Free City-State inherit City Name:

Set this to True to give the new City-State the Name of the former Free City (Default Value: False).

NOTE: If you enable this, the City-State Panel will not show the inherited Name, but the Name of the reserved City State. You can hover over the new (Free) City-State's Name on its Banner to see the actual Name of the reserved City-State (See Screenshots for a better understanding).

If you want the new Names to be shown in all the UIs, then I suggest using the City-States Expanded Mod alongside this One.

Free City-State inheret City Plots:

Set this to True to allow the new City-State to keep all Tiles of the former Free City (including Districts and Buildings already built) (Default Value: False).
If set to false, then the new CS would only get the Plots adjacent to the City Center and need to acquire other tiles from scratch.
