Add Trade Partner cities in editor?

[frustratedfan]

Hey. thanks for the great game. Could you provide step by step how to add a city in the editor empire map. I am using the dejvo(?) scenario as default and only have 3 to start with. I know how to add addl eports so I can purchase goods I am short, now would like to be able to add extra cities to trade with. Thanks

btw, When providing the step by step, pretend you are instructing a second grader. Thanks.

Got it. Thanks.

Care to share that second-grader report with the rest of us? It's always nice when someone figures something out if they would come back and let the rest of us know. Then we all learn from it.

Start with the screen that has 'New Province', New Activation, New Scenario. Choose New Scenario. You have a map label and X/Y positions. Choose something unique and with the bottom screen choices, add that city.

Now remember the name and X/Y positions and go into the Activation Screen. Choose the same name and enter it for the map label and full name. Also add the X/Y positions, if it's a Roman Province and if you want to trade by land or water. Now Choose your imports and exports and how many you want to trade of each item.

Pictures of the scenario I'm creating. (hopefully)

Thank you for that. Im going to repost it to the Our Editor Guide thread so that it wont end up getting lost, with credit to you of course.

Thanks again for taking the time to post the instructions.

Kuplo..... after setting up your trading cities, be sure to go down to tab 'C' and decide the import/export cost for these items. It's really simple with the drop down menu and the first slot for import costs and the second for export.
