yea baby!! great mod

Is there another Mod out there to fix the starting locations for Rising Tide DLC? Cuz if have to fight to early with too much neighbors and thats bugged me a lot.

is there any chance of a version ofthisfor RT?

Thankyou for the mod. I agree, they arrive in orbit and land next to the other Colony, even when there are great spots on other Continents, Islands, and Reefs. It is just plain silly to land so close to some other faction, when there are other spots without mitigating reasons.

Gran Torino.
That's how i want to go out.

Have you ever spent a few days at a secluded camp site, or found a nice abandoned beach to relax and tune out on. Then along comes someone and for some unknown reason, despite the acreage of the camp site, the mile of abandoned beach, decide to pitch their tent or throw down their towel ten yards from your own. Not only this but they also expect you to be happy about it, be nice to them and talk to them. Well I'd lay money if you've experience this unpleasant social phenomenon, you've also met a Firaxis employee, employed on the Civilisation franchise, working on the game design and coding of Beyond Earth.

A Godsend. Cheers.

Thank you for this mod. It's a nice mod for huge maps. However there is one problem when using this mod with Rising Tide. It makes most of the water resources vanish. I see mostly algae and on some maps there will be coral. One map test I saw one oil resource, but that's it. No vents, shells, plankton, minerals, or strategic resources. When a map is generated those resources are apparently not placed on the map. Also for some reason my city population (on a game I played for over 500 turns) wasn't growing as slowly (maybe this doesn't have anything to do with your mod and it was just mistakes made on my part im not really sure). I just mentioned the low population growth just in case it had something to do with this mod. When I start a new game and uncheck this mod, the water resources are placed normally. I hope sometime in the future this is made more compatable with Rising Tide. Thanks again for a cool mod.

If this works for me, I love you.

will this work with Rising Tide?

May have already been asked but can this mod work with the Rising Tide?

i must ask ryika when will this mod be riseing tide compatable?

"There's also a joke going around that you can predict where other Sponsors are going to land by looking at the areas with the least resources. (Which seems to be somewhat true and caused by the fact that Luxury Resources from Civ 5 have been removed from the Equation)"

More proof of a reskinned Civ 5?

I am playing a standard map with the larger map mod. There are 5 factions including mine and 3 of them are all in the middle of 1 continent mine included in this and with less than 50 turns (am on turn 45 and one of the factions landed on turn 42) and already they are trying to drag me into war. This is what I hate the most about civ a huge map with lots of room and the computer wants to end the game in less than 150 turns. I want to build and explore then when I am satisfied I will wage war but on my timetable not Firaxis. Your starting positions are still too close to each other.

@ViroCMN did you double load the mod like you have to do with most civ:be mods?

this mod creates problems with other mods ... units have no action bar.

now i dont have to be an instant warmonger in every game because they land right next to that resource i wanted or are just way to close to me

Oh thank heavens. It annoys me no end when everybody lands right next to me.

Awesome Mod.

Worked well for me, for a while, but then got a civ 2 tiles from my capital (turn 9). Might be that I have a lower-requiered-tiles-to-found-outpost - mod. Going to try to deactivate that mod and see what happends.

thank you

进去后卡在开始画面怎么办

这TM是啥？？？

有没有 中国人教教我怎么玩

Thanks!!!

It's called Civilization V SDK / Beyond Earth SDK. You can download it by clicking the Library button and then switch to Tools. This guide is rather good to get you started if you don't have any modding experience: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=385009

Hey I'm back!
I wanted to know what program I have to have to male mods for Civ 5 and Beyond Earth? is it a Steam program or something else? please im me if you know thanks!

Thank you sooooo much!! It was always annoying having a very warfare like Civ spawn right next to me and then like, 10 turns later destroy me. This solved the problem for good. TY MAN!!

Thank you so much for this! In my latest playthrough the Japanese Civ from another mod landed in a cluster of three tiles I was about to purchase, right in the middle of my territory, so I surrounded them totally and they had the cheek and audacity to ask me to not settle near them or buy more land in THEIR territory. WTF? It's mine! >:(

Thankfully now I won't have that issue. :)

@PhailRaptor: I lowered the value of coastal tiles, so that may be a reason for that. Haven't really noticed that happening myself, but.. well, I don't really care about coasts, so that may be the reason for that. I'll look into it later and see what I can do to make sure coastal starts are evaluated as preferable when possible.

Did you include a bias against costal starts? I'm that guy who absolutely has to reroll the map until I can put my capital on the coastline. It seems like, with this mod activated, I have to reroll more times before I get one.

I do realize playing a Protean with Low sea level contributes to that too, but it seems more pronounced with the mod (which is otherwise pretty awesome).

I read the bit about starting terrain - I think plains and grasslands is the type of terrain most people will want to settle cities on

This and the instant building quests mods seem like very sensible additions to the game, I will try this mod a bit later :)

I always use standard settings and this time it was a Protean map. Will try more though. Thx for quick answer by the way :-)

@markuslarsson81: Probably unlucky. Or maybe you're using a map archetype that has a very uneven distribution of land. (If so, try Continents/Protean, with Standard Settings) However, if that keeps happening, feel free to leave another comment. I'll see how far I can push the values to cut down these situations as much as possible tomorrow.
@Nightmare Collector: No, this doesn't effect Stations, but I believe there are some maps on the workshop that do.
@mastarfin: Don't worry. :p I know at least 3 other people personally that get quite angry whenever other sponsors start next to them.

How hard can it be to have an option in the game to spread out the civs?!

My first game with this mod I had a neigbour land five tiles from my capital, unlucky maybe?

Or what it is.

Cool mod.

For me it's the Station's, not the Sponsors that come landing down in all the wrong places, hope this mod includes them too
