Compatibility

• GitHub Link[github.com]
  
  
• Uses a custom version of AssignStartingPlots.lua from YNAMP. Compatible with all YNAMP maps, will not affect other maps. May not be compatible with other mods that replace AssignStartingPlots.lua.
  
  
• Real Map Labels option uses a custom version of MapLabelManager.lua from the Gathering Storm UI scripts. Load order set to 1 for compatibility with other mods that may change this file. The map labels are all sourced from the games files, based on the LocalizedText, and are compatible with all languages. Does not affect map labels on other maps.

Known Issues

• Invisible Borders, Cities and Units:
  When using more than the default maximum number of players for the game, the game may run out of default jersey colors for all players. Use a jersey mod like Prismatic to resolve the issue
  
  
• No Pantheon and Unable to Finish Turn:
  When using more than the default maximum number of players for the game, there may be no pantheons left for the player to choose. Download a mod that adds more pantheons for future games, and reload an earlier save before pantheons run out for the current game
  
  
• Players lose their capital to loyalty pressure early in the game:
  Use the Loyal Capitals mod
  
  
• Changing maps in a saved game setup configuration breaks TSL:
  When using the "Load Configuration" option in the Advanced Setup menu, do not change the map type between maps in this mod. It can break TSL by using the TSL list from the previous map. You should create a separate config for each map in the mod and do not change the map type once saved.
  
  
• Giant Earth Warnings:
  - Worldbuilder map (not a YNAMP map script)
  - All starting positions must be unique. Players without a defined TSL will cause the map to fail!
  - Not compatible with the "Force TSL" option
  - Modded Civs, City-States and Alternate Leaders must be added in the MapStartPositions_ModSupport.xml file with a TSL and Leader Type defined
