So after the last DE Update introducing direct_placement I finally came around to update and fix Coast to Mountains for DE. I also took the opportunity to use some new terrain to make it look a bit nicer. This version still has 2 camels like the NAC one.
I also decided to make a version that has fixed positions so that colours always spawn in the same spot. Everyone still spawns in the middle of the map and without a TC so deciding where to build that is still part of the map.
But this way you can ensure that the player playing a water civ will always spawn towards to the coast etc.
UPDATE:
Both the normal randomized version and the fixed positions version now use the same script, you'll only need that now to be able to play both.
For fixed positions you'll simply have to toggle Team Positions in the DE lobby and follow the colour scheme/restrictions below.
Fixed positions will work like this:
- warm vs cold colours
- cold colours have the lowest player (blue) always towards the water and the highest towards the mountains
- warm colours have the lowest player (red) always towards the mountains and the highest towards the water
- in 2v2 you have to use player 1-4, in 3v3 player 1-6
I decided to do it like this so that in 2v2s green and yellow don't face up against each other which can be a bit awkward.
If there are any bugs or concerns let me know. With the current situation going on and me sitting at home there is a chance that I might actually do something about it.
Shoutout to YoungPanda to help me find out that there actually wasn't a bug but that Isaving my changes into the wrong version.
Gl hf!
