I have 1 city size 6, and the Japanese (who have shared vision with me) have 4 cities sized 3,2,1,1 (total 7). When I do the demographics report it shows me as #1 in population, which seems wrong. Digging into the code, it's because of this code in common/city.c /************************************...

It's been so long that I don't remember the details. Most likely I was baby duck imprinted with Civ2 and didn't like that Civ4 was so different. That imprinting also explains why I like FreeCiv - it's a better version of Civ2.

Communities are good. Back in the glory days of Civ2 there was a great thriving community on the old Apolyton forum - that's where I first got into doing the 1-city challenge.

The code that controls barbarian spawning is in the routine try_summon_barbarians() in file server/barbarian.c - it does both land and sea barbarians. The code comments say - The barbarians are summoned at a randomly chosen place if: 1. It's not closer than MIN_UNREST_DIST and not further than MAX_U...

I like having that initial ambiguity of not knowing whether to go peaceful or aggressive - it makes the early game more interesting. One way to improve the initial scouting and info gathering is to have more Explorers as start units - the default ruleset gives one but you'd better not lose it to a b...

Since I play single-player I would like to see improvements in the AI.
