In civilization mode instead of starting out on the mainland with other players you start on a Isolated island which you can officially call your own. You can do what and how you wish on these islands. Keep in mind players can still sail to your island provided a ship dock is made or maps.
The largest difference in this game mode is that your island can be populated with NPC’s. You effectively build your own village. Language, Behaviors, much more. This mode is in BETA. but active. (I’ve temporarily disabled the NPC’s at the moment till we can get a system made for it. however the random generation of islands is active.)
Updating this, There are now multiple island types. Each island has it’s own merits and flaws. The Desert being no vegetation but has plenty of Granite for building. Some locations have rare ores and hostiles.
This is ON by default. Everyone starts on their own chosen island.
