more than eight civilizations in one game

[ronin]

I keep reading these thread and some of then are talking about having 25 civilizations in one game how do they do that.

In userprofile.txt change the number after numplayers= to the number of civs you want.

No solutions that I know of.

How do you get science to show all the AI player after you increase the number?

Also, once I did that, I can only play with that number. If I try to change the number in the set up screen, the game crashes. Any solutions?

Forster: This is a known bug. You just have to live with it. If you see a number larger than 8 in that field and you want to edit it. Exit, edit userprofile.txt and set it to the number you want.

I kind of figured I would have to live with changing the text file each time I wanted to increase or decrease the number of players. Too bad.

What about seeing the remaining player on the science screen? Any way around that problem?
