	2194 Gigamap Version 0.7 Inflate your Upload Space

Version 0.7 is completed and ready for release. In order to get around the pillaging bug that was found in 0.6, I just edited from 0.5. So hopefully I remembered all of the changes I made.

Here are the changes from Version 0.5

-All 1 tile island cities are now 2 tiles
-Transports removed from Britain
-Lowered British offensive ability at the start
-Deleted all Japanese Light Tanks and replaced them with 2 Imperial Army each
-Increased German defenses
-Deleted the British city of Narrasauq AFB
-Created the British city of Malta
-Deleted the Neutral city of La Paz
-Created the Axis city of Helsinki
-Increased British defenses
-Took most of the German tank divisions out of North Africa, only 1 remains, replaced them with Light Tanks
-IL-2 Shturmovik now upgrades to the IL-10 in November 44
-Added various AA guns to cities
-Added Anti-Tank Defenses in every city
-New German transport
-Lowered attack of Junkers Ju-88
-Upgraded most of the graphics using the shields from Curt Sibling's Dictator MGE and a color scheme from Academia's Iron Curtain
-Increased ability of the Commandos and Fallschirmjagers
-Deleted Paratroopers
-New Unit - Infantry (available to all, cheap, weak)

Darius is getting the same pillaging bug again, have you talked to Yaroslav about this?

Pap, I started the Americans, there is an error, the US planes at Pearl Harbor are disbanded because they are unsupported before the first player turn.

Maybe you can add the offshore oil improvement to Pearl, it won't provide many shields, but enough to support the intial units.

Chris, that is because the computer was too stupid to attack the units at Pearl Harbor.

There are too many units there to start with and it counts on a human player killing a bunch of the ships there.

Why not make the planes free then, or from a mainland city?

I like what you did with this, it sure is a long way from 2194 days.

Hi all!

I'm working on the pillage problem, so I ask anybody that is suffering problems with pillage dialogue to download this modified .scn file, put it on the 2194 folder (version 0.7) and start a scenario as Japan in order to try the dialogue thing

hi there, got an interesting question: there are far more than the allowed 320 in a gigamap scenario. my "the world today" scenario includes - i don´t know the real number - about +/- 800 units and there is no problem creating more and more.

how is this possible?

* my guess was that there are far too many units and the ai ignors the "too many units bug". is this the solution/explanation?

sorry for asking it in this thread but i thought somebody of you might know it?

With the no limits patch I thought the max units number was increased, that might be it...

again i can only guess pap. i installed the mpg version i found in the www and don´t know if the no limits patch was included.

but when i´m playing civ2 and i´m about constructing a lot of units (beyond the ominous 320) i always got the message "there are too many units. try disbanding some".

Don't know for sure Jim, I am going to guess that maybe with the newer versions, FW and MGE that the number was increased also.

320 isn't the unit limit its a LOT higher (around 2500 I think)
The only limit that's that small is the city limit (255).

I believe Yaroslav and I have discovered the problem of the Pillaging dialog box not working.

And you aren't going to believe how simple this is!

It lies in the NAME of the folder you use for the scenario.

I believe if you have numerals and or periods it screws up the way the game sees the scenario or something.

Yaro and I were trying to figure out why we could not get the Pillage dialog when we tried to pillage.

And we stumbled upon it. My name for the latest version was "0.7 Giga".

When I changed it too Giga Ver Seven, guess what the pillaging dialog worked.

So Im guessing a numeral or a period in a scenario folder name screws it up somehow.

This is also true in other scenarios. For instance the name of my colonies folder for Pbem was "Colonies 3.2"

I changed the name of the folder to "Colonies PBEM" and guess what the diplomatic dialog worked!

And that is the first time I got the diplomatic dialog in years! (For
this scenario)

So could someone who is having the pillaging problem please change the scenario folder name to something WITHOUT numerals or periods and let me know if that works so we can confirm this!

Thanks!

I've done some test and I can confirm that it's the period; this makes sense, because the period is a spceial character (extension separator) on Windows
