Nice, I didn't realize that you could un-check all victory options, thanks! This is a good work-around for the time being, solves #1 and #2. It'd be nice to have a mod option, though, with some goals or peaceful "victory" options without setting all players to the same team. It doesn't work for the wonders/relic victories, for example, it just declares victory immediately if you are all on the same team. A. Yup, this "male worker only" mod relies on R28. Its just a simple hack to make it all male instead of random male/female. B. This will probably distract from the purpose of this thread Just my view and shared the mod in case anybody feels the same. Permanent ceasefire might be the way to create the peaceful mode, that's a good idea! I'll probably look into at some point. Is there a way to turn off allied victories in the vanilla game? That would be nice, then you could make/lose allies (I think) by whatever you do economically. Also, you could do the wonder/relic victories while being on the same team as everyone else.

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to create a "peaceful mode" for my younger kids. I noticed that by setting all players to the same team it immediately declares victory...but then allows continued playing. Then it's almost like a peaceful city-builder game with AI civs you can trade and interact with. The only issues are: 1. The game music continually plays victory music instead of standard 2. The map is revealed, instead of being gradually explored which is more interesting. 3. It would be nice to have some sort of goals, like complete the tech tree, explore the whole map, build a wonder, etc. I think a mod altering the victory conditions is the way to go. I started creating a simple mod with "peaceful" entry in the game types and no scripts. Things load ok, but it still proclaims victory (reveals map, plays victory music) and you still have to make sure everyone is on the same team. At the least, I'd like it to not proclaim victory (can be endless with no goals if need be, just don't want the map to be explored or the music to stop). Anybody feel like giving a few pointers? On a similar note, I feel the female civilians are too sexualized for kids (or adults, for that matter). Attached is a mod that replaces them with males, if anyone is interested. peaceful_mode.zip male_workers_only_mod.zip
