  • Play Last World?

    I have now an option that reads "Play Last Wold" and once I click on it I get on the map/age/climate screen and I can type in a seed number?! Now I do not know when that option appeared, I updated to 1.13 a week or so ago. I have not found anything in the C3C manual. Can someone explain what this is?

    So long..

    It is listed in the readme, I think it was listed as 1.10. I presme 1.10 was not a released version, 1.12 would be the start of it.

      Taken from Jesse Smith's post kindly informing us all about the then upcoming patch:

      * Implemented ability to enter a seed value on
      the world setup screen. It is located in the
      upper-right corner. Any character can be entered
      as the seed. If the seed is 0 (the default), it
      will generate the world normally. If every
      character is a number, the value is interpreted
      as the seed value and used to generate the
      world. In all other cases, a hash table formula
      is applied to the string to generate a unique
      value that is used to generate the world. While
      it is technically possible for two different
      strings to evaluate to the same seed, it is
      unlikely (i.e., SEED is not the same as DEES --
      upper- and lower-case letters will yield
      different results as well).
      As v1.10 was not released, this turned up in v1.12, essentially the same version as 1.10 but with one major change - the restoration of the original and still present combat roll system, and some smaller changes.

      You can find the full list of v1.10 changes

      As for what this means, 'Play Last World' IIRC means you play on the exact same world that you last used. Certainly , if you find the seed number for a world you have used and enter it into the box, you will replay that exact world. You can find the seed for a world by looking in the conquests.ini file (or whatever it is exactly called) after you have loaded a savegame with the world you want. Keep in mind that the world will be exactly the same (supposedly, have not tested thoroughly), but civ placements will not be.
