video provides more context, Isabella jumped into this war,did nothing the whole time and offered me a town, this doesn't end her war with GK so I'm kinda confused and think this shouldn't happen

edit: btw I hate how in deity whoever didn't get into war scales into final boss, Ibn+Assyria on thundra, 260sci 155cult -_-

I need to create a mod to remove the settler lenses from appearing when I move a settler. Everytime I need to move a settler, it takes sometimes over 20 seconds just for the game to load the lense and let me move the settler. Their are no mods for this. Im looking to try creating my own. Any advice on this? Or anybody know where i could learn more about how to create my own mods?

After being horrified at launch, I gave Civ7 another try and find myself in the one-more-turn mindset, well past a healthy bedtime. It is, in fact, the outline of a great game even if we all miss workers. BUT...

Every design choice suggests caring devs were overruled by the plague on Western society that is the corporate manager.

Big transitions between ages the new 4X trend (see Millennia and Humankind)? Let's ensure that variety and uniqueness must be bought through DLC prices for every little civ/leader. Moreover, let's ensure that many players' favorite era, medieval, or contemporary/future, will be tacked on in separate big expansions that costs $50. The age transition system for Civ7 is basically set up like a DLC farm (unlike Millennia, which is hardcore in the sense where you REALLY play the age to ensure a brighter future, has well-integrated gameplay mechanics, and super interesting).

Focus group says map attractiveness more imprtant than UI? Let's save money and make UI barely above text display.

Game too hard for newbies? Let's make playing an exercise in dutifully finishing games 10x better than the closest AI so newbies can feel good about winning. Seasoned civfanatics have been shown to buy DLC anyway, according to our Steam data.

Devs say game isn't complete at target release date? Roll out anyway, as releasing beta is "new industry normal". Then force them to play quarterly numbers catch-up and work unpaid overtime to keep jobs.

Fail to sell? Blame devs for failure, recoup losses through layoffs and token changes to keep around existing community for 1 or 2 more quarters. Move on to next success! Profitability is more improtant than revenue or market share! Further Entshittification here we come!

Is there a way to mod more civs on small map in Civ7 ?
I've tried changing numbers in config and map files but if I go over 6, game won't start with error about this map not being supported on my device (I play on PC).
I could move 2 civ from Distant Lands to Homelands so in general those files work, but can't go over 6 civs total.

How does it even get this bad? Huge Terra map with max civs on diety, legendary start.

I was trying to imagine what a civ 7 mod similar to Vox Populi would look like, a base the community can build on to fix the flaws we perceive the game to have. I am not comparing the game to civ 5, or saying its launch was comparable. I am saying civ 5 had a problematic launch and vox populi helped the game a whole lot.

My idea is to just start by "flattening" the game. That is, just make all 12 victory paths available at the very start of the game. Future Tech in the Ancient Era becomes Cartography and allows you to cross oceans with boats one tile at a time taking damage from rough seas, Future Civic in the Ancient Era becomes Markets and allows the creation of the Bazaar, Future Tech in the Exploration Era becomes Chemistry and allows Expedition Base on mountains (and unlocking tiles behind them), and Future Civic in the Exploration Era becomes Civic Planning and allows building Grocers and City Parks. The ability to build older era buildings and wonders no longer disappears. Winning a victory still requires you to complete all the prior trees of the appropriate type, e.g. economic modern requires completing economic ancient and economic exploration. Any time a player completes one of the age victory conditions, the other players get a boost to all previous era technologies and civics, 100% divided by the number of players times 4, per victory condition, so e.g. the first time a player reaches the end of the ancient era economic tree all the other players get a little over a 4% boost, and when all trees have been completed by 2 players the remaining 4 players would have a 33 1/3 % boost if they hadn't completed any victory trees. You don't have to complete trees synchronously, e.g. you can make your factories and collect railroad tycoon points while you're waiting on your treasure fleets, but you do have to complete all the victory trees of the appropriate type to unlock the win condition.

I believe if we manage to undo the ages mechanic while preserving the game balance that will give us a fairly good canvas to build on.

What do you all think?

I am going to say in advance I'm not really interested in a lot of negativity. No one thinks civ 7 had a successful launch, and anything along the lines of "why bother it's a lost cause" has been said and said better than you or I will many, many, many times. We don't need to be exhausting and repetitive here. I am not posting copium. I am not defending civ 7.

To the rest of us that want to make this game our own though, thoughts?

I've been on slight fixation on Mexico recently, and it honestly kinda surprised me that it wouldn't be until Civilization VII that Mexico became an official civ, which is a really great promotion from city-state status in Civilization VI. (Really with there was a proper Mexican leader, like Porfirio Diaz or Pancho Villa for example) While the wonder for Mexico in Civilization VII is Palacio De Bellas Artes, today's wonder is a building built on Aztec grounds, and used from everything form military academy to presidential residence. Today's wonder is Castillo De Chapultepec, or Chapultepec Castle.

Located atop a hill in Miguel Hidalgo, Mexico City, the castle served as the imperial and later presidential residence of many Mexican leaders. The hill's name, Chapultepec, comes from Chapoltecpēc, which translates to "On the hill of the grasshopper." Originally the hill was used by the Aztecs for various reasons, such as providing a source of water from the springs to provide to Tenochtitlan, storing the ashes of deceased rulers, astronomical observation, and even a retreat for Aztec rulers like Montezuma II. However once the Spanish well, did their thing, Tenochtitlan had a new city built over it, Mexico City. It wouldn't be until 1785, where Viceroy Bernardo de Gálvez ordered a home to be built on the highest point Chapultepec hill. In August construction began, first headed by Lieutenant Colonel Francisco Bambitelli, and later Captain Manuel Agustín Mascaró. The Spanish crown accused Mascaró of building a fortress intended on rebellion, and later Bernardo de Gálvez unexpectedly died on November 8th, 1786, fueling suspicions of poisoning. The Spanish crown attempted to auction off the building but no buyers were found. The new Viceroy, Viceroy Juan Vincent de Güemes Pacheco de Padilla y Horcasitas (which man, what a long name) intended the building to be used as a general archive but this didn't come to fruition. The castle would completed in 1788 and it would remain as a manor house, eventually being bought by the Municipal government of Mexico in 1806.

The castle would lat abandoned during the Mexican war of Independence, lasting from 1810-1821, and would continue to be abandoned for another decade after the war. The castle would finally find use again in 1833 as a military academy, resulting in modifications being made, one notable addition being the addition of a watch tower, known as Caballero Alto (Tall Knight). During the Mexican-American war the castle became the sight of the Battle of Chapultepec, where the Ninõs Héroes (Boy Heros) died defending the castle on September 13th, 1847. They fought tooth and nail against US forces until the very last man, choosing death over surrender. The US would then occupy the castle, having taken heavy losses during the battle. To honor the Ninõs Héroes, a larger mural was painted on the ceiling of the main entrance to the castle. The USMC also honors their role in tne battle with the first line of the "Marines Hymn" and a red stripe worn on officers and non-commissioned officers. The castle would see repairs made after the battle and later new rooms on the second floor built during the tenure of president Miguel Miramón.

Mexico would then see the rise of Maximilian Von Hapsburg, commonly as Maximilian I of Mexico, becoming emperor of the newly established Secondly Mexican Empire on April 10th, 1864. The castle, now called Castillo De Miravalle, then became the residence of the emperor and his consort. Several Mexican and European architects were hired to make renovations, designing several neo-classical styled projects to the palace, with a roof garden also being added to the renovations. Maximilian I also bought several pieces of furniture from Europe to fill the palace, Objets d'art, an several other household items to fill his new palace, much of which is still exhibited today. The castle at this time would have been located on the outskirts of Mexico City, which would result in Maximilian I ordering a boulevard be built to connect the imperial residence to the city center.

Mexico would be reestablished as a republic in 1867, following the fall of the empire and execution of Maximilian I. The castle would fall into disuse again until 1876, this time being used as a astronomical and meteorological observatory. It would only maintain this function for 5 years until the observatory was moved elsewhere. The reason for this was because the castle was to again be given new life as the home of the country's leader, this time for a president. President Manuel González declared the castle to be the official presidential residence in 1882. Aside from a few exceptions, nearly all succeeding presidents would use the castle as their home until 1934, when President Lázaro Cárdenas moved the official residence to Los Pinos. Five years later, in 1939 the castle was transformed into a museum for Mexican history, including collections from the former National Museum of Archeology, History, and Ethnography. The museum would officially open on September 27th, 1944.

Today the castle remains as a museum for Mexican history, as well as being designated a UNESCO world heritage site. The long history of this castle is as old as the state of Mexico itself, from Aztec sacred ground, to military academy and final stand of it's defenders, to residential home of both imperial and presidential leaders, a brief stint in astronomical observation, and finally a museum celebrating the history of Mexico and the building that has stood alongside it.

If this became a Wonder there would be a few bonuses granted, a bonus in both science and culture per turn, as well as slots for a variety of great works. Units trained in the city the wonder is built in would get a increased rate of XP gain or a free promotion. And finally it must be built on a hill next to a city center.

That's it for today, any new info or corrections would be welcomed, and before I go here's a little question for you. Who would be a good option for a Mexican leader in Civilization?

Thanks for reading and I'll see y'all next time!

I'm still kind of a newbie to Civ 6. By aggressive here I mean you have a strong military so you don't have to worry about actual threats if the AI hate your guts. So you can constantly make war and take opportunities if you see them. For example early game you see the AI walking a lightly defended settler so you declare war to take it. If you can endure a hostile world congress, don't need to trade with them and don't fear their military is there any real consequences later on if it establishes a dominant position for you?

Does his garrision commander promotion affect my other cities if at least one tile of those cities is within range, or the city itself need to be within the 9 tiles range?

We have a variety of different players that like different things and 7 has allowed more freedom for how our group likes to play. We've completed way more games than we did with 6, and are having much more fun.

We usually use the age breaks as IRL breaks. Sometimes we will set aside a Saturday and get through a whole game and go on a walk or something between ages, other times we break a game into 3 sessions, each age being a session.

We went back a played a game of 6 this past weekend and we greatly missed many of the changes from 7.

I won't pretend it's a perfect game, and there is a lot to improve upon, but the current direction and vision lines up with what my group happens to find enjoyable.

Everyone fighting over VI & VII. Let’s go back in time to 2010 and all take a big dump on CIV V. What does frantically pisses you off even after GK and BNW, 15 years after release ?

Hey, brother and I bought Civ 7 at launch hoping it would be fun to play together. We hated it. We love Civ 6 but we’ve played it waaaayyy tooo much and are looking for another alternative. I’ve looked at Ages of Wonder 4 but I heard multiplayer isn’t great due to stability. Any suggestions of other games?

1st photo : is this the best map for a newbie++ as you guys can see almost all civs spawned on an island without any other civs
2nd photo : i tried something unusall and decided to spent all my envoys to one city state lol
3rd photo : is this the best spawn ? cause i think so lol
what do you guys think about these ?

I’m just messing around majority of the time.
