Put the global victory condition to standard, place a Gaia Wonder on the map, and see what happens at the 16:40 minute mark (in-game time). GAIA can actually win and prevail over every player. Ruins/artifacts/war chests/traitors will not change allegiance and cannot be captured.ĥ. They CAN be attacked and won't retaliate at all.Ĥ. Strange eh? Enemy Towers won't attack you either.ģ. It's fun to see the AI try and attack you if you try to raze their TC, they will follow you around but won't do anything else. However you CAN convert enemies with priests, and you can also attack them with splash damage (catapult).Ģ. Nothing will happen (Compy will walk towards the Axe though). You cannot attack ANY unit with a unit of your own even though the diplomacy is set to Enemy! Try engaging an enemy Axeman with your Composite Bowman. These maps have some really bizarre quirks.ġ. The 1024x1024 map causes an issue with the drawing of tiles, sometimes they appear like jagged black terrain tiles (NOT actual fog terrain) when scrolling, this disappears quickly though: RoR only (.scx), I could not get the maps to load in AoE (resulted in crashes).Ħ. The game will say that there is no room.ĥ. Seriously, even when it's using the aggressive PER it doesn't do much. To even see the map you NEED to use the Reveal Map and No Fog cheat codes. When playtesting NO LOS (line of sight) is present for any object. All these ridiculous map sizes are shrouded under a veil of darkness, literally.
Sometimes the map runs fine, other times. My preliminary tests found that adding units, text to the instructions and changing the global victory condition helps in stabilizing and getting it to run somehow.
512x512 seems to be the most stable but even that one will crash frequently. I will crush your dreams of ever using these maps. I don't know how useful they will be, but they are fun to mess around with however.īut first of all. Please read on.ĭesigning with maps that are 512x512 or larger there's a catch (isn't there almost always?). Now, before you start designing your most epic scenario with these. You thought maps couldn't go bigger than the 255x255 tile limit?ġ024x1024 tiles? 0MG YASSSSS11!1!!!!!!!1!
