AI controlled civs have city names tied to America? Mali had the city of Washington and Nubia had Philadelphia

So that everyone is aware: rivers don't flood and you can't place dam districts.

@Phreshshark
Make sure you are clicking the "Load Database" button and then ticking the "Only Civilizations/City States with TSL" box on the setup screen, especially if you're not setting each civ manually. It sounds like the game picked civs that don't have TSL and, thus, could not place them.
Phreshshark 12 Dec, 2021 @ 5:26pm 
So this didn't work at all. The map is great, but only 3/6 civs populated and never would work after.

Could you add TSL for some of the Gedemo African civ mods? Morocco, Luba, Zimbabwe, Maasai.. also Citivas Berber?
PublicMasturbatr 4 Jun, 2021 @ 9:57am 
Could you please add TSL for Gedemo's Morocco?

Why isn't there a flood on the Nile?

@Crumblus Crisp
1. Ok, I understand. Need to unsubscribe tho.
2. Yes, but only in south west and I had them in north east.

@PewienCzlowiek
1. No. If I made a worldbuilder version of the map, TSL and mod compatibility would be a pain to implement.
2. There are penguins in Africa.
PewienCzlowiek 3 Mar, 2021 @ 10:56pm 
Will you do this map with pre-placed resources? I think that having penguins in Africa is too anticlimatic.
Crumblus Crisp  [author] 3 Mar, 2021 @ 12:23pm 
@Venemar That's certainly a bug but I am unable to reproduce it.
Venemar 3 Mar, 2021 @ 1:01am 
I've reloaded this map a dozen times, and there are no rivers. Was that intentional? Just a dozen or so single tile water sources. I love the concept and the restricted civ's, was very excited to try it but that kind of ruined it for me.
PewienCzlowiek 2 Feb, 2021 @ 8:38am 
Which city states have tsl on this map?
McDuck 30 Nov, 2020 @ 9:16am 
Can you also add Gedomo's Morocco?
Jimpy 29 Aug, 2020 @ 8:10pm 
is it possible to add TSL for Gedemo's Morocco, CIVITAS' Berbers, CIVITAS' Songhai, TCS' Kingdom of Jerusalem and/or CJL's Babylon? That would be amazing :)
Angelius 26 Aug, 2020 @ 6:00am 
Does it have TSL for city states ?
chernobyldenier 21 Aug, 2020 @ 3:35pm 
figured it out! (i think). i didn't load the database before hand. this time i did and it worked.
chernobyldenier 21 Aug, 2020 @ 2:54pm 
sorry to bother again, but I noticed city states aren't loading for me. only mods I have enabled are this map and advanced cheat menu. anything I could be doing wrong?

@joshsweetener

Arabia starts in Cairo unless Cleopatra is in the game, in which case they start in Mecca.
chernobyldenier 19 Aug, 2020 @ 2:36pm 
does arabia start in cairo, or mecca?
07181408 19 Aug, 2020 @ 12:41pm 
sorry i forgot to reply to this because it doesnt tell me when people reply but I had an old copy of the mod on my laptop from before the update that you can replace with the new one I could send it to you so I didnt put it here because it's not like a fix you can do yourself
d.hautecoeur 29 Jul, 2020 @ 11:23am 
Why don't you write it here Ronang 101? Seems like every body with this mod has the issue
Oddible 26 Jul, 2020 @ 11:39am 
Same problem, not even using this mod in my game but it is red and won't let me use that save. All other saves work fine.

Noticed something - it looks like the NAME of the mod was changed from "True Location Start Africa" to "CC - True Location Start Africa". By adding your name to the mod name you broke everyone's saves.

Alternately, it looks like a bunch of YnAMP mods are now listed as Not Compatible, maybe this mod relies on one of them?
crocodileguy 26 Jul, 2020 @ 2:12am 
so a trillion other mods that work fine, and this one, the one is wasn't even using, the one i had forgot to disable, breaks the entire save. this would be really funny if it wasn't annoying as all hell.
pepe_Lpz 24 Jul, 2020 @ 11:29pm 
rip all my game saves
Gangsterjawa 24 Jul, 2020 @ 8:43pm 
Yeah this is some bullshit, I had a Deity game as Ethiopia I almost won when I saved and got off and now I can't reload because it's saying this mod is incompatible with the save, regardless of if the mod is enabled or not.
dl.shadowstrike 24 Jul, 2020 @ 5:03pm 
So the issue I'm getting is that it's marking this mod in red, even if I disable YnAEMP. I specifically didn't have Sukritact's Ethiopia on, because I was trying the new DLC. I have a bunch of other interface mods, but this is the only thing that's specifically marked as the conflict on the load game page.
Crumblus Crisp  [author] 24 Jul, 2020 @ 2:59pm 
@dl.shadowstrike

What other mods are you using? I imagine the update could be creating issues with Sukritact's Ethiopia. I think you should be able to continue your game if you unload this mod and/or YnAEMP.
dl.shadowstrike 24 Jul, 2020 @ 2:24pm 
I started a game yesterday (before the last update on this mod), and now I can't load it because it says this mod is in conflict? I can't imagine how, but was wondering if you have any insights into that.
Camio 23 Jul, 2020 @ 3:51pm 
Great map, would love to see the Ethiopia dlc added for TSL :)
20년만에 한다 31 May, 2020 @ 3:21am 
I have a request. At the start of the game, I hope the resources will be fixed and created on every tile as it is in reality.
specialedgar 19 Apr, 2020 @ 5:29am 
Could you please add TSL for mod Civs like Ethiopia, Morocco, and South Africa as well as colonial powers like England, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Rome, etc? Would be much appreciated!!!
Rubbernecker 26 Mar, 2020 @ 6:11pm 
nice map, it would have been nice tough, if the landscape was jungle and tropical instead of european. Or did I do sth wrong?
TheCzolgosz 8 Nov, 2019 @ 5:01pm 
Question about the topography of the map itself - is the 2-tile lake above Lake Victoria supposed to represent Lake Turkana, or is it supposed to represent the Lake Abaya? I ask because you’ve placed Debre Berhan, Zara Yaqob’s capital, just north of it, which would make sense if it’s representing the Lake Abaya, but not if it’s representing Lake Turkana.
Daemon Trooper 10 Oct, 2019 @ 11:14am 
Ok so there seems to be nothing about City-States in this map. Missing a lot of non-modded natural wonders that are in Africa. Arabia TSL is wrong, as for Phoenicia.
Daemon Trooper 8 Oct, 2019 @ 6:50am 
Number of City-States not included in description, Two maps with same name and characteristic proposed in the game preparation interface while selecting maps.
k.a.n101 16 Aug, 2019 @ 8:46pm 
There should be some patches of green in the Sahara like Tassili n'Ajjer in Algeria IRL
Khalas 4 Jul, 2019 @ 12:15pm 
Can you add TSL for city states please, including some modded city states?
SirBobbyTheOwl 4 Jun, 2019 @ 11:04pm 
I too Crash when I meet Muscat, As an aside, Id love to see the city states be pre-placed, aswell as some City states from the "Gifts of the Nile" Scenario like Serabit el-Khadim, Irem, or Punt.
TheCzolgosz 15 Apr, 2019 @ 6:42pm 
Is anyone else getting a crash whenever they meet Muscat on this map? It doesn't happen to me on any other map, even with other mods enabled. I'm wondering if it has to do with its placement at the very edge of the map?

IT'S TIME FOR AFRIKA
English_Racoon 3 Apr, 2019 @ 8:09am 
@turtle is correct, there should be spaces for small bastions of life around the Sahara like in the real world
midas 2 Apr, 2019 @ 7:09pm 
@crumblus crisp

ok but it does have some famous oasis that you should add
Crumblus Crisp  [author] 2 Apr, 2019 @ 3:11pm 
@turtle

Fun fact: the Sahara has roughly 0.71 people per square mile.
midas 2 Apr, 2019 @ 2:47pm 
desert needs oasis to make it not hellishly terrible
Ghiaman1334 30 Mar, 2019 @ 11:42am 
@Crumblus Crisp Fair, fair. Makes total sense.
Crumblus Crisp  [author] 29 Mar, 2019 @ 10:55pm 
@Ghiaman1334

No.
Ghiaman1334 29 Mar, 2019 @ 6:30pm 
Might be interesting to try to add TSL for colonists, too: Netherlands, France, England, Spain, etc. Sensible not to not include them immediately, but it could be a thing for the future.
Ospinrey 29 Mar, 2019 @ 5:48pm 
I think Oasis are needed
