I edited the civs, there is a tag for initial units (obviously it doesn’t work for water objects). I also tried using a code like when you evolve from age and a unit is handed over. But still nothing, does anyone have another idea? Or is this not possible?
Is this for a Random Map Script, or scenario?
I want modding for every civ have a caravel or similar ship starting a Random Map. Like Settlers and Explorer
Like for a specific map or always? If you always want it you could create a tech that sends a Caravel and then it would show up on any map with a water shipment point.
Maybe show what you’re trying to do… someone can help.
There are several things I can think might be the problem but don’t care to explain every case if it’s not necessary.
Maybe you can follow the code in Ceylon or similar maps that gives player a starting catamaran or canoe, in this case substitute the catamaran for “Caravel”
