Description:
Updated for 1.16.2.*

====> COMPATIBLE WITH 1.14.* / 1.15.* <====


Information

This mod only increases the minimum and maximum province caps (distance covered) by 3 times as much, but it doesn’t guarantee that the plagues will cover their maximum allowed provinces. So the more plague resistance everyone has, in a general area of an ongoing plague, the more likely the plague will not spread and only cover it’s minimum provinces cap. The exact opposite is also true, the less plague resistance, the more likely the plague will spread to its surrounding area and possibly cover it’s maximum province cap.

The reason for this is because I felt the plagues never really affected me, since most of the time they were really small. Even the major ones, with the exception of the Black Death, did not really spread that far and was a let down for me.

THE MOD ALSO AFFECTS THE BLACK DEATH, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
IT TENDS TO COVER THE ENTIRE WORLD NOW AND LAST AT LEAST A DECADE (10 YEARS).


Mod Compatibility

The mod edits the caps in the "00_epidemics.txt" so I’d steer clear of mods that touch that file.


FAQ

1. Can this be used in my current save? Can it also be removed without issues?

Answer: Yes, it only changes 1 file and these changes are reversible. As long as your game is up to date, it can be added and removed without issues. When the mod is removed, the current ongoing plagues will stop spreading if they’re over the normal vanilla cap. If they’re under, well, then it will spread like a normal plague without the mod.
