Hey Arko, after having this mildy frustrating thing happen to me so many times, I wanted to talk about how trade centres are spawned. So I understand that they favor counties with at least two cities, but other than that, they're given free reign to spawn wherever they please.
The mildly frustrating part I mentioned is that if two adjacent counties are favored, it's completely random, which does serve the purpose of making dynamic trade routes, but it feels odd that, for example, the trade centre spawns beside a capital county rather than on the capital itself.
So, that brings me to my question: Is there some way that capitals can be weighted so that trade centres spawn on them (if they're eligible), if otherwise it would spawn within adjacent counties? Something like if the county has the "Capital" modifier, it would be considered more highly if it can spawn a trade centre?
I wanted to know your thoughts on this since you did say that the point was to create different dynamic trade routes every time, but having a trade centre spawn beside, for another example, Cairo, Baghdad, or Isfahan, rather than on them just feels wrong. All of this is just one person's (my) opinion though, so think of it what you will.
