Description
Are you sick and tired of selecting "massive player distance", and then meeting your first AI on turn 4?

Than this is the band-aid solution for you. The RMG is unable to figure out starting distance between different map layers, and therefore it often disrespects distance when some players start undergound.

This mod changes the Underground Adaptation trait to no longer prefer subterranean, and thus everyone will start on the surface.

I haven't extensively tested that, so can't really say.

A grievance I have is the shrinkage in the size of the map with the Underground Adaptation Trait.
Does it appear that the Open Beta Version addresses that issue also?

Please note that the current Open Beta version appears to address the primary grievance this mod is for in a different way, including player distance being respected between layers.

If this works, I will stop using this mod myself, and recommend people not use it at all.
