Anybody else that have run into this problem?

The reson seems to be the map size. must be some calculation that gets screwed with big maps.
Maybe the can patch it.

It works on the standard sizes.
Its on your world map OmniGod, do you have the same problem?

There are problems with larger maps than standard. Must be some error.

It has to do with the map size. For it to work the map size has to be a factor 2. Tried to modife the factor in const to the factor used in the world map and no roads. Try to make a big map with factor 2 and it works. Now i wonder if this affect other parts of the game i played alot with Omnigods world map.

Now i need a way to convert it to a factor 2 map or maybe you have some spare time Omni .

I hope that's not what you're asking...

One more thing i atleast got this problem don't know about everybody else.

There is one thing I will try that is to change the factor in const file. There is first height then width and then a factor maybe you can change that one?

I tried to do it for your world map but seems its a factor 0.933333333333333 so that might be why it didn't work there. But we need to figure this out I for one need maps that arent times 2. Maybe thats why the world map from Activison looks so strange.

This problem raise one more question does this affect other AI behavior?

So if we could adjust your map to a factor 1 that would be enough.. So 220 220.. Not sure how we do this.

actually - changing the value ###x### 2 to ###x### 1 had no effect in creating a new map the dimensions were the same if the same numbers were used.... my question is does that second number actually play a part in the game, since I'm not noticing any diference... did it play a part in CTP? That goes out to skorpion... since I figure you'd know...

by the way the map was created 210x150 thus I don't know where .91333 comes from? wouldn't it be either 1.4 or 0.714?

No, it has no bearing on making a map. Only the first 2 do. In fact, in CtP1, within the map files themselves, they were defined as 70,140,2 while CtP2 now only defines them as 70,140.

Omni

Tried to change your map to 220 * 220 but had no luck.
So I started to create a new wolrd map with 220 times 220.. Its hard work. Spent 4 hours and only got the land masses right. Now i have to create the terrain for everything.. phew. Any tips you did a great work with your map any tips?

I tested my map and the AI players build roads.

You feel like a painter when you create the map. Its fun to see it evolve in the overview window. .

Will you post the map on your site? Because I think my map will take a while and I am dying to play the world map.

One thing you. You know the size of the map I think your where regular before. Try to change the regular size to the size of the map 225 * 225 also remember to set the 1 after those numbers in const.txt. I think thats the factor.

My map work is proceding rather nicely. Some problems got south america a little to far below the end of africa. On my map thats how it look. Using an atlas.
Just 10 squares or something. Don't wannt to redo the whole america.

And europe is a little bit bigger realtive other continents and so is north america (Atleast i think so). I guess most people like to play with those areas anyway.
