I currently don't own 7, and likely won't own it till it goes on a massive sale as I'm not a fan of some of the changes to the gameplay.

If the mod creator sees this, can we get this ported to 7? :)

Still works, even with several other mods (just if anybody was concerned because of last change date)

how can you change the amount of starting units? cant find way into scripts or location of mod? please if you can help.

开局增加一个侦察者，就这？

works selectively

For everyone in doubt:

This and the "Starting Builder" mods works!

TESTS:
DLC leaders and non-DLC leaders: ✔
Starting in Ancient Era: ✔ (later Eras gives both a builder and a scout even without the mod)

What DID make a difference was:
If I started the game from an earlier saved game setup configuration. Apparently those configurations also save the list of mods chosen at that moment.
That means, that if you save a configuration at a time where a certain mod is not activated in the game, then that mod will not be active in a new game if you use that configuration. This is true even if you actively have selected that mod as active in the settings in the main menu.

It took some digging and a whole bunch of new game starts to figure this out.

NoShotz: Thanks for a great mod

Such a fantastic mod.

Works for me

Well, I just tested it with just my two starting units mods enabled, and it works fine, so idk what to tell you, https://i.imgur.com/VZcHvi0.jpeg

I have disabled all mods except this one and it still doesn't work.

Then you've got a mod that isn't compatible with it, cause it works for me.

Doesn't work.

Works fine here. I'm using YNAMP also.

You are likely using a mod that doesn't work with the mod, one mod that seems to be incompatible based on what other people said is the YNAMP mod.

not working, why is that

Thanks for the reply. Must have been another mod I've been using forever or them just rushing it before I meet them.
Cool mod!

According to the civ 6 wiki, none of the difficulty settings has the AI starting with a scout.

Since the AI already starts with a scout, does this mean they get ANOTHER scout?

Update! I downloaded NoShotz Starting Builder as well, and both mods seem to be working just fine now!

I also created a new game directly, rather than loading a previously saved settings configuration... so maybe that's related?

Not sure what did it, but everything seems to be working fine now.

Hmm... this doesn't seem to be working for me either. What does "temporarily prevent" mean? Does the mod author need to update it, or does Firaxis need to unbork it?

The latest update may temporarily prevent some mods from working, I know it stopped this and builder from working.

Give it a minute and everything will work again

this mod doesnt work.

I use Starting Scout every game and it still works for me.

Well, I just started a game with both of my mods enabled, and it works, so I don't know why it isn't working for you. https://i.imgur.com/ZaHO4eL.jpeg

Same here I have used your mods for a long time, they no longer work. I start without a builder or a scout. Real strange lol

Hmm, those mods should work fine with this one, I'd double check that it is enabled, also loading preset game settings can change what mods are loaded depending on what mods you had loaded when you saved a game preset.

enhanced mod manager, removable districts, and gold resource are the only mods i have other then this one

Do you have any other mods installed?

fairly new to civ 6, but i have this mod downloaded and enabled in the additional content screen but when i start a new single player game there is no scout anywhere to be seen. what am i doing wrong lol

Thank you :)

Considering no mods turn off achievements, no.

Does this mod turn off achievements?? I'm sorry if this question was answered before, I don't have time to read 12 pages right now

It's likely just a mod conflict, as every single time someone has said it no longer works, it infact does still work.

It is August 29 2021 and this mod does not work

Just me being forgetful was what caused it.. so nevermind ;) Thank you for some nice mods! :D

That's odd, I don't know what could be causing that.

it doesnt

Thanks

It does.

Hey does this still work? I want to make sure it works before I download it. Let me know.

Ah, well I guess that's it then. Too bad, Play the World is probably the best Earth map out there and it needs YAMP to run. So it goes. Thanks again.

Someone else in previous comments also mentioned issues with YAMP, so it likely is the cause.

That might be it. If other's are having the same issue can let you know if they are running those two mods maybe we can track down the conflict. Thanks for responding :)

It's possible that it may just not be compatible with those mods due to them modifying AssignStartingPlots.lua. My mod doesn't touch that file, but changing how that file works may be changing how my mod is being read by the game.

Don't know what to tell except neither this one or the Builder one seems to work. The only other Mods I have running are two map mods YAMP & Play the World. I'm not trying to give you a hard time it just doesn't work for me.

There's literally no reason for it to stop working.

Not working :(
