    Maybe your Barb settings are too high, but on the other side where would be the challenge. And certainly you shouldn't guard your cities in modern times just with warriors.

    Another small bug: when a unit is "asleep" if you press "f" to fortify, the unit doesn't fortify, just stays asleep.
    Will they be fortified on the next turn? I guess the sleep flag isn't cleared, but they are still being fortified. Let's see when I look into the code.

      I always play on the highest difficulty and barbarians, it's just difficult when they spawn outside the fog, fun though.

      Yeah, the game was obviously too easy if I could guard all my cities with 1 warrior all game.

      I waited a couple of turns and it still stayed in sleep mode.

      The little "F" that appears under the unit when you command it to fortify doesn't appear either, so I guess the command just doesn't work when it's sleeping.

          • Is it intentional that you cannot terrform until agricultural revolution?

            Also, the potato resource is commented out of teh goods.txt in the AE mod, so there is an error when loading it.

            And finally, the game crashed when I used the search function d, using the AE mod:

              No? You should be able to remove forest/jungle for plains right from the start. You can't change grassland to plains until agricultural revolution though.

              All the other changes are in the readme in the scenario folder.

              Also, the potato resource is commented out of teh goods.txt in the AE mod, so there is an error when loading it.
              Yeah I noticed that too. In fact goods.txt includes some experimental stuff (tradefood, only advances allowing access to certain good bonuses), I assume E put it in. I would rather just use the original goods.txt in the AE Mod, because these are undocumented features in the game and can be confusing at the moment.

                      More of an exploit I guess, but I think improvements should be removed once the city is built on top, to prevent cheats

                          • Guess you'll just have to research subneural ads

                            BTW if you have some suggestions to improve balance etc post in the AE mod thread:



                            I think we were getting around to naval units before things slowed down in the forum, I might revive the thread when I have time.

                                Looks like I need more to tackle this one, namely your savegame and your userprofile.txt.
