World Fog of War

A true fog of war for the world map.

The planet generates normally, then the whole tile grid renders as unrevealed black hexes until you actually see them.

Adds an "Unexplored World" scenario: you don't pick your starting tile, you roll a random one from a filtered pool of biomes and terrain features instead. - and it is not revealed until you enter the game. Tiles reveal permanently as caravans travel near them - the reveal radius scales with the caravan's average Sight. Quests and letters that point at a distant tile reveal just that one tile, nothing around it. You can turn on in settings to have areas frozen in time/dimmed when your people are not around for a real fog feel.

Cool features

Interrogate prisoners to reveal their hidden bases - Time for warcrimes... Trade with caravans or visitors to reveal their hidden bases - only works if you actiually make a transaction. or set it all to just happen automatically when they show up at your doorstep ooooor... You can turn all of it off and just discover the world yourself. Fully costumizable in the mod options.
