40sw4rm's "Old World" (BETA)

Description
This mapscript has been in development off and on as a side project for more than a year with two goals in mind. First, to create a map that is realistic and true to the areas of Earth it is meant to represent. Second, to keep the map size within a reasonable constraint as to not overtly attempt to melt computers. The map measures in at 120x80 and features simplistic, mod friendly TSL support.

This map is in BETA so expect multiple updates to come. Next update will include statically placed resources in the next couple days to boost overall luxuries and attempt to help with balance issues.

Progress shot #1 -- realistic resource placement[i.imgur.com]
Progress shot #2 -- realistic resource placement[i.imgur.com]
Progress shot #3 -- realistic resource placement[i.imgur.com]

To enable TSL support for the civ of your choice, please view the readme file included in the mod. A civ MUST have a TSL entry for it to spawn on this map.

You must have both Rise and Fall, Vikings DLC, and the Indonesia DLC for the map to generate. Attempting to load the map without these two will result in a crash.

For map/mod related questions, reach out to me @ fortysw4rm#5387 on Discord. No guarentees on how quick I can respond, but I'm always willing to try and help out.

EDIT: 5/31 -- I'm currently reworking this map for Gathering Storm.

This map no longer works. I wish it did, because it looks absolutely amazing.

If you're looking at this map, please note I am currently working on getting this updated for the latest expansion. This will include adding volcanoes and fixing other things.

I haven't purchased the DLC. However, as long as you have the three required DLC that I've listed it should be alright. You'll need to hand jam that new civ TSLs to get those working.

@fortysw4 HEY GREAT MOD BUT CAN YOU ADD MOD LEARDERS IN TO FILL IN THE MAP

@james, It's been about a year since I've played the game. However, you just enable the mod and run the mapscript in worldbuilder. When I was building the lua script for this, it was me constantly making changes, restarting, and running it in world builder.
