Finding A Site & WorldGen Settings
« on: July 07, 2022, 03:30:15 am »

I'm curious. How many not only use the site finder, but also check neighbors to make sure you get each possible civ?

For example: https://i.imgur.com/ae3DnUU.png

I've tried creating a site using lots of civs & sites and it seems over time most dwindle. Are default WorldGen Settings the best mix to get each neighbor listed in the pic?

atm I'm using EmbarkAssistant, not to cheat, but to help find the neighbors I want.

If you can reach them over land, you can interact with them. Neighbors basically only refers to who will interact with you first. For example, if there's a tower far away but accessible via a raid, they'll start sending undead sieges if you keep pestering them. Just something to keep in mind.

I play by checking neighbors if it isn't immediately visible to me from the map itself (say, if there are modded civs). I'm also not picky about embark site, though, and tend to just play whereever seems interesting in the moment.
