To clarify what I am trying to do:
I know that I can use the editor to adjust the minimum distance between civilizations at the start of the game. This is not what I am asking about.
During the game, you can not build cities right next to an established cities -- there is a protected radius of one around each city. I would like to adjust this parameter, and particularly to increase the protected radius to three. Similar to Master of Magic, for any familiar with that game. I think a 7x7 exclusion zone centered on the city with the four corner squares excluded is ideal, but maybe too complicated.
This would minimize the overlap between the usable areas of adjacent cities, both player and computer controlled. It would also allow city positions to be planned to protect against those annoying computer cities built in an undesirable corner of my empire, without requiring me to build a city there.
Thank you for any help.
