  • Sea Levels

    I thought that low sea level = more land and high sea level = less land. But someone stated the opposite is true. Does anyone know which is true, and what the ratio of land/sea on these levels?

    Thanks.

      Good. Thanks.
      Do you know how much more land you get with low sea level compared with high sea level?

        I think it's something on the order of +/- 3 tiles on a normal map.

          I thought it was just a straight percent, something like low = 60% water/high = 80% water;

            I don't think it's that straightforward, but I don't have the python at hand... I think it has slightly different effects based on the map type etc. My above mention was for pangaea.

              The reason why I pick high sea levels is when I don't want the AI's meeting up with me or each other too early in the game...they love using their work boats as scouts after all.
