So I generate my first world with no Night Creatures (tired of losing good adventurers to random boogyman attacks), anyways, i'm playing the Civ Forge mod, but i decide to make my first adventurer a human. So im walking around doing my human thing and I decide "Man, i'd really like to hit up a shop" so I ask the nearest human in his house filled with 12 other humans (weird creatures), "Tell me where the capital is! or I will break all your bones!" he tells me and I start my adventure a days travel south east. I arrive at Spikestood (human capital) in the early morning only to discover the place is COMPLETELY abandoned, and every shop/house has a broken door with a wolf infestation.

Anyone else experience something akin to this?

It's because the people who live there all starved.
Or they became wolves because wolves are waaaay cooler than humans.

You know, I was digging through the "Legends" and I think I picked up a hint of a Megabeast killing certain individuals in Spikestood (I have history hidden, but I was talking to someone from a nearby town who said they had lost their only daughter to "X" named beast in Spikestood), I wonder if a megabeast obliterated the entire capital... Very interesting.

[Jeoshua]

It happens from time to time... actually it happens all the time but usually more people move back in.  Since some guy was talking about it happening to his daughter, it probably happened recently in history and the capitol hasn't been resettled, or relocated.

Well then, that leads to the question, approx how long does it take for a large settlement like that to be re-inhabited, also what is the fastest way to facilitate re-habitation?

[SirAaronIII]

You probably can't anymore. History events (like cities being repopulated for example) can only happen in worldgen. So your best bet is to make a new world and hope the towns aren't all abandoned.

Man that sucks, this is a great world otherwise, perfect equilibrium between races. With a mod such as Civ Forge or Genesis that adds new races, is it common that these third party races have their own capitals as well as shops?

I've seen something like this happen in one world, in a region with an evil biome nearby and not too far away from a very warlike elf nation. When I walked into a town the only things there were chimpanzees and lions. I'm not too sure about this, but I think I was able to rest/retire there as well. Also, one of those weird Wrestler Fortresses was nearby.

Yes.

Yes.

You probably have to ask Mephansteras about Civ Forge since I haven't played it for a few versions, but in Genesis:
Keepers (human biomes), nords (tundras/glaciers, so usually no cities), dusk elves (temperate biomes), ezrakim elves (desert) and orcs (jungles/swamps) have towns and big cities.

Make sure to generate a large world though .

Ok, so I downloaded Genesis, I am setting the advanced parameters for a world with no nightcreatures and heavy in Megabeasts, what is the standard pop cap and site cap parameters for a Very Large selection in the main world gen?

Yes, there should be extensive cities in the plains for Humans, High Elves, and Dyansauri. There are a few other city civs as well that you can buy stuff from. Makes it pretty easy to get decent equipment.
