AVAILABLE MISSION MODES
_____________________________________________
You can play this map in Custom Mission Mode, which adds a few custom story lines to give the island its unique history and some character. These custom story lines can be completed by the World Wars period, so you can continue to build out your island in a standard Sandbox set-up thereafter, which provides you all the standard vanilla Sandbox story lines.
You can also play a straight-up standard sandbox game from the start. The Sandbox Mode, Hard limits you to $20,000 Starting Capital, in Sandbox Mode, Easy you have $100,000 Starting Capital.

WARNING

Hmm, thats good for me to know too. I fit my text to a 1080p screen but since people run their computer at lower resolutions, it may cut out too!

Thanks guys for the encouragement and the bug report. I didn't realize that the dialog boxes scale dynamically with resolution settings. I run on highest screen resolution, and all dialog is tested to fit. I apologize to all who play this mission and run a lower screen resolution settings. CAUTION: Some text in pop up boxes may cut off (and probably not just the Ol' MacDonald dialog).

You have a little too much text in some of Old MacDonald's Farm's dialogue. Some of it is being cut off

Someone wrote that my maps don't pose a "cerebral" challenge. Actually, I made them to be a "thinking gamer's" maps. A lot of thought went into these. A simple example: on this map you will run into swampland at some point. As any invading army or group of settlers who got into a swamp can tell you, it really "bogs" you down. This map tries to give you that same experience. As soon as you encounter the swamp, you will actually FEEL how it slows you down. But there is more to it: in real life, people over time will drain a swamp and turn it into useful land. I tried to make the map model that, too. Play it and you will see: once you find out more about that swampland and spend some time developing it, that swampland will turn into really useful land for you. There is so much more like that built into these maps.

When you play 'em, just keep thinking: what is realistic? Would what I try to do on this map work in real life? I think that's what can make Tropico 5 still be fun when you're good at this game. Because - really - there's nothing more boring than building another perfect city with unlimited funds on a flat island. Not if you've already done it a hundred times.. Right?
