Civ2PBEM Diplomacy 2.0
Here, as promised, we publish the new version Civ2PBEM. Let's see some parts of the manual:

What is this utility for?

This utility allows agreements between human players in a Sid Meier’s Civilization II e-mail game. For those of you that don’t know what Civilization 2 is, I only can say that Sid Meier’s Civilization 2 (by Microprose) is, in my humble opinion, the better game ever made! You lead a tribe from the ancient time to the success – or the failure. Civilization 2 has many versions; one of them, Civilization 2 Multiplayer Edition (also know as Ultimate Civilization 2) allow multiplayer games by Internet (IP games) or by e-mail.

What kind of agreements can you do with this utility?


o You can offer/demand a city or a group of cities.
o You can offer/demand gold.
o You can offer/demand technologies.
o You can offer/demand some kinds of maps:
§ Territory map: Only the terrain of the other player (you won’t see the cities or the units)
§ Cities map: The terrain and the location of all cities known by the other player
§ Units map: The terrain and the location of all units known by the other player
§ Complete map: The terrain, units and cities known by the other player.
§ Foreign map: You can ask a player for the terrain, units and cities that he/she knows about a third player.
o You can sign a cease-fire, make peace or sign an alliance treaty.

I'll open a HTML page on the Spanish section of Apolyton (spanish.apolyton.net). Of course, the Spanish webpage is in English

When I'll publish it, I'll bump this thread. If you want to do suggestions, it's the correct time, because in a few days I'll start working on version 3.0 (that will include units).

I also have some doubts about units exchange. I'll open a thread with those doubts in the future.

This thread will have a mirror on CFC.

Sorry for the autobumping, but I see that the file has downloaded 7 times. Do you have any feedback?

i haven't tried this yet (just downloaded it now) but hopefully it will help get around firewall issues several people have. myself included some of the time. does it require that both people have the program to use?

Um, maybe i'm the kind of who has not even noticed he is one, but... is the barter info is stored in the dat file?

Does this mean that if I don't want other players to know my evil intentions I should e-mail the dat file to the other player?

The utility seems amazing. More pesky questions.
Is it possible to transfer cities without changing gold, diplomacy status, units in the city, etc.?

About the dat file: It is meant only for one player and only the reciever of the barter can open it because it is passworded. But if you want to be safe you could of course email it.

Yes you can transfer just cities. When they transfer they are empty of units so it is in your best interest to move and rehome the units BEFORE the city transfer.

Yaro did I get that right? And this is a great utility 2.0 corrects the minor bugs from 1.0 and adds the map and city transfer. It is a great utility! Thanks again Yaro!

You get that rigth

El Leon, conmcb25 explained it perfectly.

BTW, I'm working on version 3.0. I'll open soon a new thread about unit exchange in the utility

Thank you, conmcb25

i used it for the first time today i found it a bit strange that i could unilaterily(sp?) accept a trade of cities, techs, etc, withot even having to talk to the other player. of course doing anything like that without the other players agreement would be cheating.

Oh yeah, I found a spelling error for when you accept an offer that involves a peace treaty, i think you might have spelled treaty wrong.

But if you set-up a password, no one can use the utility for accept an offer without using the password.

And please, tell me where I'd a the spelling error, because I'm not a good english-speaker, so it's normal for me to have errors.
