More Settlements

March 2022 update:

The newest DLC, "Of Flesh and Faith", apparently causes a freeze with this mod installed. I've long since moved on from the game, so I unfortunately cannot offer a fix for this. If anyone else wants to take the mod's concept and/or name and update it, maybe make it better than I ever could (I never did figure out mod hooks...) then you have my full and unrestricted blessings. Just let me know via private message (not comment) so I get the notification, and I can either link to the updated mod, or delete this listing, or whatever is needed. Sorry again, but thanks for using this mod, I hope it's been fun!

Does NOT require mod hooks, because I couldn't figure out how to use it. The dummy way works well enough. :)

Requires Blazing Deserts DLC.

Makes a few small tweaks to world generation that encourages more settlements to be generated, weighted to give a higher ratio of minor/small ones while keeping the major cities and forts rare.

Slightly more ocean/river area will also be generated, on average. This is to allow for an increased number of fishing villages and harbors to exist. It's still entirely possible to generate a world with no river-like features and no coastal settlements at all.

World generation may occasionally take longer than usual, but only by a few seconds or a minute at most.

--Incompatibilities--

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH "OF FLESH AND FAITH" DLC

Modifies the following scripts:

entity\tactical\tactical_entity_manager.nut

entity\world\combat_manager.nut

states\world_state.nut

Not Legends compatible, because Legends already does all this.

--Version History--

1. 2 - Fixed 'index Entities does not exist' script error which caused entering certain battles to freeze the game

1. 1 - Bugfix: Oriental (desert) citystates were missing from the spawn list. Game should always generate 3 of these now, if it can

1. 0 - Initial Release
