Historical Spawn Dates

Inspired by the Rhye's and Fall mod for Civilization 4. Civilizations appear based on the game year, ie: Sumeria and Egypt start the game in 4000BC, America starts the game in 1776AD. Optionally players can spawn by era instead of year. Revolutions will surround new players when they appear, converting cities or causing free city revolts nearby. Starting bonuses and military units are based on the progress of other players, and the current game era. Isolated players start without bonuses. Players exist in a state of limited autoplay off of the visible map until their start date. Original mod by Gedemon on Civfanatics, updated for the Rise and Fall expansion, Gathering Storm, New Frontier Pass, and all DLC. Does not support the base game without expansions. Supports randomly generated maps, Worldbuilder maps, TSL Earth maps and YNAMP.

Cities in the spawn zone will revolt if they don't have an established governor. Original capitals and City State players will not revolt by default. New players will declare war on the city owner if it has an established governor, and they receive military units (compatible with all unit mods) dynamically based on tech and civic progress. AI players will attack nearby cities. Setup menu options: Spa
