It is a little too slow at times if I want to sail my ship to the other side of the screen, especially when the wind is against me.įortunately I'm a programmer myself, I found out how to mod the game allowing me to accept city founding missions bypassing the 26 cities limit. The second thing I would like to mod is the speed of time in battle. Does anyone know what is this city number limit which you still get the city building mission? Or even better does anyone know how to change this number? There seems to be a hard limit that says 'If the map has more than a certain number of cities, then do not offer any city building mission'. If I start a game with like 38 cities on the map, I won't get any city building mission from the Alderman's office. I know I can change the number of starting cities in the mapeditor, or even the German MapAdjust tool, but I just like to be able to build cities that I can fully control with less production items, it is quite fun. One: if I start a game with the default map, there are only 24 cities, and I'm only able to get 2 city building missions from Alderman's office. However there are a some things I would like to modify. In the end, I found that I still enjoy Patrician 3 much more than 4.

I bought the Patrician 4, played a number of hours, well they have added a lot of good stuff in it (like improved auto trade route management system, university research system, inland cities founding etc) but more things were removed.
