Islands

Island generation follows this basic pattern:

1. Decide Island Size - This is based upon the sailor being used, and the ship type has no bearing.
2. Decide Island Map - Purely random, based on a predefined pool of maps for each island size
3. Determine Resource Nodes - These are based on the map itself. And the type of resource is determined by the sailor being used again.
4. Determine Map Fertility - Based on sailor being used. Island size, map, and resource nodes have no impact on this.
5. Determine Island Name - Random Selection.

Individual nodes are capable of spawning different resources. If there are two islands with the same layouts, one node can provide a different resource than a corresponding node in the same location on the other island.

Island slots

Island slots are found in the islands menu and can be unlocked either by expanding your settlement or by using rubies. 4 Islands slots are unlocked by population, while 4 slots can only be unlocked by using rubies.

Island sizes

Main island

Everyone starts on the same main island. It has a predetermined map, with resource nodes, fertilities, and name all decided before the game starts.These features are identical to all users.
