More Restricted Colonization
This mod allows the player to apply stricter rules to colonization, limiting minor nations, and restricting access to the African continent. You can hover over the text in the mod menu for details if you are confused about what the toggle actually does.
This mod uses the Community Mod Framework.
Customizable Features
All of the following mechanics can be adjusted or toggled using the Community Mod Framework menu:
- Wealth Requirements: Set a custom tax base threshold that AI nations must reach before they can colonize (defaults to 1,000, up from vanilla’s 100). This prevents minor powers from establishing unrealistic global colonies.
- Historical Bypass: Toggle whether historical colonizers (Castile, Spain, England, Great Britain, France, the Netherlands, Novgorod, Russia, Denmark, Sweden, Portugal, and Courland) bypass the tax base restrictions entirely.
- Continent Permissions: Toggle exactly which continents are allowed to establish colonies.
- Colonial Nation Restrictions: You can disable colonial nations from colonizing entirely, restrict them to expanding only within their home region (to prevent border gore), and toggle whether they are allowed to bypass your global wealth or continental restrictions.
- African Colonization: African colonization is globally restricted to the coast. You can fine-tune the exact harbor suitability required to claim an African province and toggle whether historical peripheral island chains (Azores, Canaries, Cape Verde, etc.) are exempt from the restrictions. (Note: AI nations with their capital in Africa naturally bypass these harbor restrictions to colonize inland. However, you can toggle specific settings to force African colonial nations to obey the coastal rules, or disable African colonial nations from colonizing entirely.)
