AI controlled civs have city names tied to America? Mali had the city of Washington and Nubia had Philadelphia

So that everyone is aware: rivers don't flood and you can't place dam districts.

Make sure you are clicking the "Load Database" button and then ticking the "Only Civilizations/City States with TSL" box on the setup screen, especially if you're not setting each civ manually. It sounds like the game picked civs that don't have TSL and, thus, could not place them.

So this didn't work at all. The map is great, but only 3/6 civs populated and never would work after.

Could you add TSL for some of the Gedemo African civ mods? Morocco, Luba, Zimbabwe, Maasai.. also Citivas Berber?

Could you please add TSL for Gedemo's Morocco?

Why isn't there a flood on the Nile?

1. Ok, I understand. Need to unsubscribe tho.
2. Yes, but only in south west and I had them in north east.

1. No. If I made a worldbuilder version of the map, TSL and mod compatibility would be a pain to implement.
2. There are penguins in Africa.
