Frontier Explorers - IE Sealanes & Trade Networks

Greetings fellow mod enjoyers!

I grant to thee - A sea lane mod for your collection.

I have currently made 5 different versions of sea lane/node mods, at which you should only ever have one of them active when playing.

• Flat Earth Explorers - TOW Sealanes & No Trade Networks - This version is made for "The Old World" also known as "TOW" and will only work with said mod enabled.
  
  
• Marco Colombos Charted Sealanes - IEE Sealanes & Trade Networks - This version is made for "Immortal Empires Expanded" also known as "IEE" and will only work with said mod enabled. This version also includes pre-established trade agreements between major factions and their respective "colonies/outposts/expeditions" factions.
  
  
• Marco Colombos Charted Sealanes - IEE Sealanes & No Trade Networks - This version does exactly the same as "Marco Colombos Charted Sealanes - IEE Sealanes & Trade Networks", but without any of the pre-established trade agreements.
  
  
• Frontier Explorers - IE Sealanes & Trade Networks - This version is made for vanilla "Immortal Empires" and includes pre-established trade agreements between major factions and their respective "colonies/outposts/expeditions" factions.
  
  
• Frontier Explorers - IE Sealanes & No Trade Networks - This version does exactly the same as "Frontier Explorers - IE Sealanes & Trade Networks", but without any of the pre-established trade agreements.

Ingame screenshots show a few examples of the new sea lanes as well as a map of all the sea lanes.
Travel times between each sea node is 2 turns for most and 3 for the long routes.

Trade has also been pre-established between main factions and their respective frontier outpost/colonies/expeditions, as well as certain trade networks like Barak Varr trading with certain Order factions via their port, Marienburg trading with Erengrad and so on.

The point of the mod is to make some immersive connections between factions, as well as open up the enormous map for the player, promoting new styles of play and encountering factions and biomes you normally would not in said playthrough.

• This mod was inspired by a brilliant mod made by Thuynder but does not do the same nor include his advanced port mechanic.
  
• Will the sea nodes work for AI? No only the player, CA never made it possible for the AI to use. Maybe some modder will crack the code some day, to advanced for me.
  
• Does the vanilla nodes still work? Yes they do.
  
• I assume that other mods "forcing" trade agreements with the same factions as I did, could cause CTD.
