    MOD: UI - City Limits

    Highlight city limits in strategic view

    Adds a "City Limits" option to the overlay drop-down menu in the strategic view that displays the limits (workable tiles) of cities, using different colours for the player's cities, AI cities and City States.

    Version 2 utilises "Utils - Modular MiniMap Overlays" to maintain compatibility with other mods that add to the strategic view overlay list

    You can find this mod on the Mod Hub under User Interface (UI) -> Other.

    Uses the SerialEventHexHighlight() method (as it would seem the nice hex colouring code for the strategic view is in the core game dll), which unfortunately means that the highlights are cleared whenever a unit moves. However, they can be reapplied by simply selecting the "City Limits" option from the drop-down again.

    I tend not to use the suggested city sites, and found myself taking a lot of screen grabs to draw "3 out lines" around cities to plan where to send my settlers, this mod just saves me the effort!

    Version 2 uploaded using "Utils - Modular MiniMap Overlays" to resolve the compatibility issues
