Description:

What:

Reduces the playable area roughly to the scope of the original Crusader Kings (2004). Extended a little farther East to prevent the Iranian Intermezzo from breaking.


Why:

Lag reduction. I’d like to play without the bloat of tens of thousands of characters in far flung realms with which I’ll never interact. The smaller map mods in the workshop are still too broad or went a little too narrow for tastes, so I make my own.


Notable Changes:
  • Most regions have been made impassable. The titles and characters from those regions have been removed.
  • Only characters within playable bounds will appear in the bookmarks.
  • The Mongol Invasion event now spawns in Samarkand.
  • The Silk Road has been disabled.


Known Bugs and Issues:
  • You will see faint borders around Chang An in China if you look close enough. This is the root node for the Silk Road. Removing it caused a crash on starting a new game. Doesn’t cause any real issues, just doesn’t look as clean as the rest of the map.
  • Everything else seems stable and there were no crashes during testing, which consisted of running the game for 50+ years at each starting date a bunch of times.


Incompatibilities:
  • Not compatible with anything that changes 00_landed_titles.txt or provinces.png.


Compatibilities:

If everything is up to date, it’s compatible with the following mods in the following load order;
