idk what I did, but I think this mod broke in my game. In the beginning it was catastrophic events non stop, then it just stopped? just turned back to moderate floods and everything. anyone else experience this?

When I set up a single player game, clicking "Apocalypse Mode" automatically changes the disaster level back to 4...

From what I can tell by reading all the comments and between-the-lines, this mod works fine and as intended and on GS and NF and Apocalypse, so fear not, subscribe, and destroy stuff.

I'll report back in a few weeks when I start and conclude a game, assuming I don't experience a mod conflict and can't use this. Which I'm fairly confident won't happen.

and what about the mod real all disasters which adds comets and flares to normal game?
Ripz Feb 12, 2022 @ 10:52pm 
this work with apocolypse mode too?

I really don't think that the never ending forest fires is the mod, because I'm just now installing it , and I've had this happen on level 4 apoc mode. It caught fire early on, and it didn't go out the entire play-through.

Please make this type of mode for apocalypse mode!!!!!!
:steamsad:

Yeah, that seems to be a problem with Vanilla, not this mod. Hmm,
The Grocer Of Despair Jul 19, 2020 @ 10:33am 
It works but forest fires have a tendency to never go out on level 5 if the forest/jungle area is large. They just keep circling around, stacking bonuses.
JoojMeister Jun 23, 2020 @ 9:05am 
still works?
Comrade Chris Jun 3, 2020 @ 8:27pm 
Would it be possible to make it compatable with the Apocalypse mode, i quite enjoyed playing with this mod before, and would love to have them both combined
Tangletale May 24, 2020 @ 12:51pm 
Does this work with the new Apocalypse Mode from the New Frontier Pass?

After using this a time now I would like to have even more disasters.
To increase number of normal disasters can I just increase this add *2 after OccurrencesPerGame in this line?
OccurrencesPerGame FROM RandomEvent_Frequencies WHERE RealismSettingType='REALISM_SETTING_HYPERREAL' AND OccurrencesPerGame=1;

Great mod, thanks for sharing it.

I would love to see Earthquakes, Tsumani & Meteor/Comet impacts as well as Solar Flares once Electricity has been researched (nobody would really notice an X-30 class flare (Carrington Event equivalent) otherwise, plus a very rare "Micronova" event as well.
Pizza the Hutt Nov 10, 2019 @ 5:03pm 
I felt like this mod was needed because the intensity of disasters is pretty weak. This mod still doesn't fulfill my desire, but thank you for the effort.

My apologies, I was playing on a large map, late game now there's an event almost every turn since I've uncovered pretty much all 100+ volcanoes (they weren't logged if I hadnt discovered them I'm assuming). Still, it'd be nice if there was a little more variety than a volcanic eruption every turn on primordial (I rarely if ever saw anything besides eruptions) but that's probably a symptom of there being too many volcanoes when the game rolls for a disaster and the inability to have more than one per turn.

Fun mod, otherwise!
p0kiehl  [author] Oct 2, 2019 @ 3:40am 
It's not broken. I used it with primordial the other day.
BluePhazon#1353 Oct 1, 2019 @ 7:54pm 
This mod's broken with the September update, primordial map. Volcanoes all around me, nothing has erupted. No floods, no hurricanes, absolutely zilch.
Cuso Sep 14, 2019 @ 1:30pm 
Hi! For some reason when using this mod sometimes a disaster would reveal a part of the map for me. That part would remain revealed until another one appeared. It didn't happened with every disaster, but when it did it would not appear in the event history.

yikes

I want to apologize how I acted with you pOkiehl, I responded to you in a childish manner, not like I am in normal life. I am a super nice person and Love your work and others. From now on I intend to extend positive responses across the board to all who help make this game better.

It taught me a lesson I will never forget and I am 64 years old
Thanks for your great work and please do not stop! :steamhappy:
neilwilkes Jun 16, 2019 @ 10:55am 
Does this mod include such things as Meteor/Asteroid/Comet strikes, Tsunami, VEI-8 Volcanoes, Solar Flares/Superflares & Gamma Ray Bursts?
Would be totally cool if so.........what is needed is a rare chance of an Extinction Level event
p0kiehl  [author] Jun 3, 2019 @ 12:55pm 
No. This mod does not affect map generation whatsoever.
Exí Jun 3, 2019 @ 12:26pm 
Is it possible that using the mod causes Floodplains to appear less often?
p0kiehl  [author] May 16, 2019 @ 5:50pm 
Nope, doesn't cause crashes. I play with it all the time.
Halcyon May 16, 2019 @ 5:31pm 
seems to be causing crashes for me everytime there's a storm
p0kiehl  [author] May 12, 2019 @ 10:13am 
Yeah, that's part of the risk vs. reward with disasters...
Sig (Von Luck WT) May 12, 2019 @ 7:17am 
Great Mod, Only downside to this that I've noticed is that when I was playing my capital was next to to a violent volcano and it kept wiping out my Capitals population at a critical time when I was trying to grow and expand. Ended up starting a new game as a result.
Burp Reynolds Apr 11, 2019 @ 12:24pm 
This is a nice change from the peaceful DI 4. Even on Marathon the level 5 disasters happen often. 2 Tornadoes, an eruption, and a flood within a few turns of each other. I like to give my civs the challenge of surviving by settling in between two volcanoes. The resource bonuses are pretty nice too.
Зэк батька Apr 11, 2019 @ 11:18am 
How to increase cell flooding?
Burp Reynolds Apr 10, 2019 @ 11:32pm 
Going to give this a try as I find 4 kind of weak. Where's a volcano that will wipe out my civilization?
emjay_dee Apr 2, 2019 @ 9:27pm 
Thanks for the update; you saved me from some disappointment and wasted time!
p0kiehl  [author] Apr 1, 2019 @ 10:12am 
This mod does not make climate change any faster than if you chose the 4th level. After the patch it will not affect climate change speed at all.
Woof Apr 1, 2019 @ 12:13am 
So the upcoming Antarctic path notes video said that the higher the disaster setting, not only does it change how often they happen but it also speeds up climate change. Does this mod only change the frequency? I want more disasters but not a super fast early climate change rate.
Exodus Mar 26, 2019 @ 2:25pm 
Ah, I see. Thanks for the tip.
p0kiehl  [author] Mar 26, 2019 @ 7:10am 
@TripleExit - In general the game is hardcoded to only allow 1 disaster to exist per turn (exception being droughts). Upping the frequencies beyond what this mod does won't do anything.
JNR Mar 22, 2019 @ 1:08am 
@Swoab: yes, they are compatible. Historic Speed changes the BASE frequency, RCC - Disaster-heavy Climate Change changes the frequency from climate change, only. Different tables modified. I'd recommend using them together, actually.
nut9931 Mar 19, 2019 @ 4:16pm 
(I used Google Translate.)

Can you include my modification file in the mode?

1. Increase probability of flood and volcano among existing disaster levels by 3 and 2 times, respectively
2. Reduced storm and drought probabilities of existing disaster levels by 2 and 3 times, respectively
-> The probability of floods, volcanoes, storms and droughts is 5 ~ 10.
In particular, we lowered the storm 10, 20, and 15, 30 drought levels to 5, 10 for the 4th level of disaster. Now, storms and droughts do not happen too often.

3. Disaster probability increase rate at level 5
Flood, volcano: 2 times
Storm, drought: 1.5 times


The modified file is here.

Can you make this scale up to a level 6, 7, or 8? 10!? Basically so the entire world is thoroughly destroyed every single turn in late game climate change. Or... i'm guessing theres a limit to how many of each disaster there can be each turn? Like you can't have 20 hurricanes on a large map or something. Unless there is no limit. Idk how the disasters determine how/where to spawn.
Neko Mar 15, 2019 @ 6:39am 
Hello,
Does this mod work with Rebalanced Climate Change and the feature that Climate Change increases frequency of floods, storms, and droughts. Increase is bigger for strong disaster variants?
p0kiehl  [author] Mar 14, 2019 @ 10:19am 
As I said, I fixed the sea level rising. And rivers are flooding regularly; that was never broken. The mod is completely working now.
ejkul Mar 14, 2019 @ 10:11am 
In the game I finished playing yesterday with this mod on there were no river floods or polar melting.
p0kiehl  [author] Mar 14, 2019 @ 4:59am 
@Sstargamer - Thanks for reporting. I had a look and you were right - found the bug causing the tiles to not flood. Just uploaded a fix after I verified that flooding was occurring properly and the bar is changing. Not sure if it will apply to games in progress, unfortunately.
p0kiehl  [author] Mar 14, 2019 @ 4:25am 
@ejkul - That's incorrect. Rivers flood very consistently and the ice caps do melt. There was a bug that I literally just fixed causing the sea level to not rise though.
ejkul Mar 14, 2019 @ 4:20am 
This mod didnt work (at least in my game). The ice caps never melted and there was no change in sea level. Rivers also never flooded.
Sstargamer Mar 13, 2019 @ 9:05pm 
Hey man, The Climate Change system is not functioning correctly with the mod, it counts up 1/9 i even got to 10/9 but there was no change on the actual bar, and none of the tiles actually flooded.

RE: Disasters somewhere almost every turn. I'm guessing this depends on map size?
