Quick question.
I've been playing around with borrowing terrain relief maps from Google Maps (with some success). As I now have a big empty map, I was wondering if there is any way, currently, to automate the process of placing cities in prescribed (rather than random) locations?
As far as i know, there is no way for this. The Cities are placed at random locations and must be corrected manually if you want to build something specific.
Or you can programm a patch for it to take cities and thier inhabitants from an accompanied file ...
Trouble is, most regular end users can't code. :-[
So, maybe he could request for a patch to be made for him by an experienced user? Maybe drop them a PM?
No. PMs are discouraged. Nearly everything should be discussed in the open. For instance, someone interested in this who *can* write a patch could see this thread, but not a PM. :)
