Does this enable the "bring in some settlers" cultural conversion event for landlocked rulers with access to one of these rivers?
I am not familiar with this particular event but if it uses something like borders_major_river within the event limit then it probably will. However, if it requires province IDs then it probably won't.
 
I just tested your mod and I dont like the fact that the provinces which now border your rivers do not have ports like provinces with hip rivers (this is also the trigger for the culture spread event i was talking about). So basically you are landlocked and a target for realms with ports but you have no possibility to strike back... useless for me atm...
 
With all of this talk of wonders I am curious.
Would people prefer a physical "Canal of the Pharaohs" over the current abstraction of a "Suez Canal" for connecting the Mediterranean and Red Seas?
Baring in mind that because of a bug at least part of the Nile deltas eastern branch would need to be changed from a river into a sea.

Changing it into a sea so everyone can transverse it (instead of Germanic/reformed pagans only) is a good idea.

But can it be "switched on/off"? Historically, Pharaoh's Canal has been "switched on and off" numerous times and the last time it's reopened is in the 7th century by 'Amr and then finally closed in the middle of 8th century, so it should be already closed at the start of the game.

Edit: even better if it can dynamically change, so everyone not in good terms with its controller should not be able to transverse it

I agree that it should be off by default at the start of the game.

Unless there are some major with the way CK2 handles the map it probably wouldn't be possible to do a change like this while the game is running. So no events or decisions to rebuild or destroy the canal. It would probably be stuck at the current system of copying some files over at the start of a campaign or after some RP milestone then starting the game up.
 
Hello, I think there's a wrong connection in the adjacencies, Syrmia (1000) is connected to Prato (1137) instead of Macva (1127). It results in some funny teleportation over the Adriatic.

Thank you UrsusAtlanticus, that is now fixed in 1.1.2.
 
Any chance you could make a version of this compatible with the Expanded Map submod, assuming it's not too much work and mechl has no problem with it? Love having more sailable rivers!
Mechl map is very impressive. If he is okay with it I would not mind releasing a sub mod for it. But, that will probably wait tell after it has been updated to 3.1.
 
Hello, the links to the ports from c_ajadabiya to c_alexandretta appears to be broken in my game, the ships are sent northwards in the middle of Europe, while for some counties there's no valid path. I'm not really sure if it's related to your mod, but can you check this out please? I'm having issues trying to understand what is the problem here, I've updated your mod together with Furry4 and I'm sure that I was using the default configuration (separate Caspian with ports, no Suez canal).

EDIT: The problem appears in new games too, not just my current save.

This looks like it was a problem that SWMH introduced when the positions file were updated for wonders.
You might want to also report it to them.
