Woot! Founded city with 5 natural essence points.

I've been playing the game for about 2 weeks. A few days ago I found one with 4 Essences, and today one with 5. 

 

I guess those are pretty rare eh? I also noticed the city didn't have enough icons to hold the image of the 6th slot (from scrying pool) , in the overhead view.

Screenshot of the 5 essence site? Never seen that in an unmodded game.

Sure, I can get one when I get home.

I didn't even think they existed. I guess the max for it might be the same as it is for the other two resources? And I can't say for certain I nkow what the max is.. I've seen 6 for materials before. thats the highest so far. 

 

I believe I used the "Wild Lands" Map type from the Map Pack DLC. Its probably 3 tiles away from the Imperium wildlands.

So what was the initial site stats? 2/2/5 ??

I think the maps from the map pack DLC are 'fixed' maps. (looking at it now)

I've literally seen the exact same tile setup. in the pictures on the map pack store page. as far as 2/2/5? - No, I think it was better than that. I'll have to check when I get home. At work til 5.

Better than that would be odd.....I though the maximum was x+y+z=9

As for tile setups, the maps are generated by stamps. These stamps consist of 5x5 tile areas (I think they are 5x5...could be mistaken as I never paid much attention to this aspect of modding). Therefore, if parts of the map may look similar...it's because they are in fact the same.

I think if you make a custom map you may be able to edit yields to be greater than normal, like in the Wildlands Stardock map.

It is not possible to get a 2 / 3 / 5 as the tile yields are capped at sum total of 9. Must be an edited tile on a map, nice find though.
