Empire Planner + (Auto Map Tacks) Advanced

Master Your Civilization VI Empire with the Empire Planner+ Mod

Take your strategic planning in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI to an unprecedented level with the Empire Planner+ (Auto Map Tacks) Advanced mod. This powerful tool is designed to streamline the complex process of empire expansion, ensuring every decision you make contributes to a cohesive and thriving civilization. From pinpointing ideal city locations to meticulously planning district placement and even identifying prime spots for Great Wonders, this mod offers a comprehensive solution for ambitious leaders.

Intelligent Planning at Your Fingertips

The core of Empire Planner+ lies in its ability to analyze your empire’s needs holistically. It considers the synergy between cities, ensuring that districts in one city can benefit from resources or terrain features in another. By leveraging the game’s own placement and adjacency rules, the mod guarantees that its suggestions are not only optimal but also fully compatible with all game mechanics, including those introduced with Gathering Storm. Since it operates client-side, you can rest assured that your game’s integrity remains intact, with no risk of desynchronization in multiplayer sessions.

Key Features for Enhanced Strategy

Empire Planner+ offers a wealth of customization and advanced features to suit your playstyle:

• Focus Presets: Easily prioritize your empire’s growth with pre-defined settings for Balanced, Science, Culture, Gold, Faith, and Production, or even stack multiple priorities.
• Customizable Dials: Fine-tune the planning process by setting your desired city count, the number of districts per city, and specific wonders to aim for, alongside a detailed checklist of included elements.
• Alternative Layouts: Explore various strategic options with the ability to cycle through different city-site combinations and layouts, each scored for comparison against the best available plans.
• Score Log and Saved Layouts: Review and compare all planning sessions from your current game in a detailed log, and save your favorite layouts to three dedicated slots that persist across reloads and replans.
• Intuitive Interface: Utilize preview, peek, and verify functions to easily navigate planned placements, read the map without obstruction, and cross-reference the mod’s adjacency calculations with the game’s engine.
• In-Game Visuals: Benefit from unique yield badges and clear markers for illegal placements directly on your map tacks.
• Hotkeys: Access core functions swiftly with convenient hotkeys for opening the planner, adding/deleting tacks, and hiding the interface.

Understanding Projected Yields

The numbers displayed on the map tacks represent an end-state projection. This means they account for the planned placement of neighboring districts and improvements as if they were already built, regardless of current technological or civic prerequisites. A “+9” yield, for instance, signifies that the tile will provide that bonus once all planned adjacent structures are in place.

Compatibility and Support

This mod is built and tested for Rise and Fall and Gathering Storm expansions with all DLC active. While it includes its own advanced yield display, it is recommended to disable the game’s native Detailed Map Tacks feature for optimal performance. For questions, bug reports, or guidance on multiplayer installation, the dedicated Discord server is the best resource.
