RNW Tile: Elpis

Description
This adds a new tile for the Random New World Generator of Conquest of Paradise!

DEMO version
(Always appears): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=646472999

Overview

The small continent of Elpis consists out of roughly 350 provinces that are up to you to colonise and conquer. With a size of 8x8 it is one of the smaller continents and still leaves a lot of room for other tiles. However, it is sizeable enough to contain the core territory of an empire without getting to claustrophobic. The continent is divided in several regions by the central mountain range. Due to it's high variation in terrain height, the tile offers a lot of diversity in the regards of terrain. Rivers mostly align themselves to province borders so that you can tell at a glance if an army would be crossing a river. The tile can also be rotated and mirrored in all directions without losing authenticity. When the generator spawns a good number of Native Kingdoms, which happens fairly regularly, Elpis can provide a good deal of fun and expansion to pass the time until the Europeans arrive. Lastly, frequent provincial trade modifiers make the tile interesting to colonise.

Requirements and Compatibilities

Obviously requires the DLC Conquest Of Paradise.

Besides that, the tile should work with pretty much every mod, unless someone creates a mod for a island-only RNW.

Random New World Improvements by Elzephor is recommended as for all RNW generations, and was active when the screenshots were taken.

TBARW EXTRA: Darker water was active when the screenshots were taken.


Other

Special thanks to Elzephor, who answered my questions in the forum when I was stuck, and from whom I copied the formating for this description.

This is my fist RNW tile, thus any constructive critique is highly welcome.

If you're experiencing problems with the tile, feel free to contact me.

@grimmnir Hast du das DLC Conquest of Paradise? Hast du sie auch in dem Startfenster aktiviert? Asonsten kann es sein, dass dieser Kontinent einfach gerade nicht von der Generierung ausgewählt wird, dafür müsstest du dann die oben verlinkte Demoversion nehmen, die spawnt immer.

@Elzephor Should be updated now. Atleast I hope so.

It looks fine to me!

@Elzephor Good point. Also if I'm updating it anyway, would you say that I went to hard on CoT etc? Should I tone it down a bit?
Elzephor 20 Mar, 2016 @ 4:26pm 
You might want to bump the weight up to 300, as that is what most vanilla continents have. I've had it enabled for a while, but I've yet to see it spawn.

@Qrs any mod that change the RNW tiles will alter the games checksum and invalidate ironman, so no its not unfortunately

@Rick I uploaded a demo version for you:

The tile should always appear in this version.
