  • NOVAL Invert Mirror Map Script for multiplayer games

    NOVAL_WAR_ROUTE_v9





    Description:
    Another mirrored map for players who like to have ideally equal starting spots. It is script dedicated to 1v1 game with City State, barbs camps, ruins...
    This map uses Leszek Deska invert mirroring algorithm from LDeska_Insidesee.lua script.

    It makes mirror of all element of the game:
    1) landmass, resources, natural wonders...
    2) Players starts positions,
    3) City State starts positions,
    4) Barbs Camps (with active barb warrior),
    5) Ruins,
    6) Players Teams (one team on left , second on right)

    I have added some Advanced Setup menu with options to make MultiPlayer game more attractive:
    1) additional human units from start added by map script.
    2) additional CS units from start added by map script.
    3) El Dorado erasing
    4) uranium, horse, iron, quantity setting
    5) lux types qty setting,
    6) teams positions setting (random or frontline, distance short or long)
    7) permanent war option (game will start with permanent war beetwean human players. ALWAYS_WAR for games without CS and NO_CHNAGE_WAR->PEACE for game with CS.)
    8 ) "Map setup description" popup window
    9) free road
    10) some map configuration option.

    Several landmass types are available:
    1) "Plain without sea","Oval pangaea without sea",
    2) "Small inland sea","Oval pangaea with inland sea",
    3) "Medium inland sea","Oval pangaea with inland sea",
    4) "Huge inland sea","Oval pangaea with inland sea",
    5) "Zorro atoll","Z-shape pangaea",
    6) "Mountains","Mountains pangaea without sea",
    7) "Fyords","Random pangaea with many fyords.",
    8 ) "Volcano","Volcano-shape pangaea".
    9) cold war
    10) desert storm
    11) Random landmass option

    Changelog:
    V8_3
    -improved landmass creation -> no more buncker maps
    -improved lux distribution
    -improved team position control
    -improved script stability
    -barbs army option added
    -perm. war option added
    -mirror maps barbs production blocking problem fixed

    Installation: put this map (mapname.lua) into C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\sid meier's civilization v\Assets\Maps\
    For multiplayer game all players have to upload new map to this folders on own PC.

    Warning: do not put it in "My Documents\..." - it will cause problems when other player will have it in correct location and you will try to play together.
    You have to restart you CIV after you have copied map script file!

      You should link it in our download database, this way it can be more easily found by players. And by the way what category should I create for it?

          Well, that's the download section not the forum, so you should be able to do it yourself. Otherwise, I have to fix something.

          Anyway, here is the Map Scripts section you suggested. Well, I made it more general, but please try whether you can add the entry.

            Well, I still would prefer if you would upload it or link to the attachment in your post. These external links have the property that they tend to break. But if it were linked to stuff on this site then we have that under control.
