Still works relatively well! The only issue I've found is with the More Lenses mod the starting settler doesn't get the Settlers lens auto applied. I would have to assume that's because it's technically a different unit or something as it's only an issue with the starting Settler.

@ToryJang ty for the tip

In my case, if you use NFP this mod itself didn't work. (Just using GS has no problem.)
But simple you can make it work.
1) Open 'FasterStartingSettlers.modinfo' file
2) original line 9 is <CompatibleVersions>2.0</CompatibleVersions>
3) input '1.2' before 2.0. I mean, change it to <CompatibleVersions>1.2,2.0</CompatibleVersions>

Still works fine.

Hey everyone, sorry for being unresponsive. I no longer play Civ VI and I am generally inactive on Steam overall.

Anyone who wishes may feel free to create a fork from this mod and modify it however you like.

oh, and I've noticed the AI main civilization settlers seem to get their speed boosted as well. (Assuming they weren't always allowed to fast travel.)

The city state settlers don't get the bonus.

If you edit the file, and change the +1 to +1000 movement, things get interesting. The game doesn't know how to use all that movement, and sometimes when you click on a tile you see 3 tiles away, your settler will go on a 100 move random jaunt across the map. Once, I circled the globe, when I right clicked to move 2 tiles.

Why 1000 movement, you ask? Well, barbarians, if you bump into them, halt your settler's movement. But on the first turn, there are no barbarians or camps on the map, so nothing will make you halt and lose the rest of your movement. Also, if you so choose, you could gobble up all the goody huts on turn 1.

is it at all possible to make this work with custom launch settings?

This is so helpful.

Thank you.

Causing desync in MP, probably conflicting with YnAMP. Did some tests, if you have desync on 3 move it's probably this mod. The thing is: if one or more City-State can't settle, it tries to move away another title, even if it's possible to live here, on 3rd move the game will delete it's settler, causing client to disconnect, without possibility to reconnect normally.

Nice, Thanks!

Thank you very much. Sometimes remembering something that I forgot takes a lot of mental gymnastics. I have more appreciation for mods that slip through the code easily these days. :)

@Ingolenuru Just tested it and everything seems fine. Its a very lightweight mod, so there isn't likely to be any conflicts unless there are significant updates to the game.

Test it and see instead of waiting for someone else to test it for you. Otherwise you might be waiting a while for no reason.

Can we get a 'Sept ok' please?

@Sejick Figured it out. Apparently saved configurations for new games will uhm... fail to incorporate new mods so a new game configuration must be created and saved.

@Geoclasm I don't know of anything that conflicts. But this mod does only activate under the Standard, Rise and Fall, and Gathering Storm rulesets. If you are playing in a scenario, or using a custom ruleset then the mod won't activate.

Is there anything that conflicts with this mod, or am I just doing it wrong?
I'm not seeing 3 movement on my starting settler...

Does this mod affect the Maori starting ocean-embarked settler?

BTW, the recommended mods prolly don't work anymore

@Myers Aside from City-States spawning to close together, the AI almost always settles first turn.

Does this affect the AI as well?

Thanks for all the comments! It appears to be working with GS so I added the compatibility tag. If you still are having issues with it not working, leave a comment describing the problem and any mods you have installed. Thanks!

Okay. I love this mod. It was really irritating to be so limited on first city placement. Not any more! Thanks!

Can you please mark this MOD as compatible with GS? Simply add these. Your mod works fine for GS for me:

Mods can be tagged as compatible by either adding "<CompatibleVersions>2.0</CompatibleVersions>" to the properties section of the modinfo or by marking compatible versions in the project page of ModBuddy.

Worked for me with Gathering Storm and Starting Scout Mod.

@Proquantu Do you have any other mods active? You might have one that's overwriting this one as it works fine for me.

2/15/19 Mod is not working with Gathering Storm. I'm sad - I really like this mod. Hopefully it can be fixed quickly.

Working fine for me. Oddly, it wasn't working for me before GS hit but now it's working and makes the start of the game so much better!

@AlexMD
does mot seem to work with my game of GS.

Can you please go through this mod and take a look?

this seems to work with gathering storm

Is it gathering storm compatible?

Yes, the AI receives the same bonus to their starting settlers, although they usually still settle in place.

Does AI players have the same starting settlers ?

初始移民+1移动且无视地形

yeah i got quite a few. i think i was just a little too umm (legalize it) to realize the jump from 2-3. ui read 3 with new settler. i think i was just not counting right at that time (i'm so not used to settlers moving like lvl 2 scouts lmao)... but you do some good work. i'm learning from others work because of the age of the modding tutorials on civfanatics. feel free to add if you ever need a extra set of eyes on issues.

@skitosoldier: Huh, that's strange. There is a brief moment when starting the game where the UI refreshes and the movement range increases from 2 to 3, but I don't know what would cause the movement to increase to 4. Do you have other mods that might affect settlers?

does not update ui though. but movement is still available. starting settlers say 3/3 but can move 4

yes R&F compatable. works with embark as of new patch

Thanks a lot, the mode is simple but great. Based on your mod I modified it to benefit only for me and extend to all subsequent settlers. Of course OP, but i like it

Very good

R&F compatible i presume?

good

that sounds interesting,thx

THANK YOU! I rarely take the start location the game puts me in, but if you don't then you're at a disadvantage so this is very welcomed in my games.

@ Chainsaw: Nope, achievements are still enabled with any number of mods active!

666

thanks!

Will this stop achievements?

Awesome!
