## Configuring your game ## Connecting to a game
Make sure you enable the mod in the main title under Additional Content > Mods. When configuring your game, make sure to start the game in the Ancient Era and leave all settings related to starting technologies and civics as the defaults. Other than that, configure difficulty, AI, etc. as you normally would. 1. In the main menu, navigate to the "Game Options" page. On the "Game" menu, make sure that "Tuner (disables achievements)" is enabled.
2. In the main menu, navigate to the "Additional Content" page, then go to "Mods" and make sure the Archipelago mod is enabled.
3. When starting the game make sure you are on the Gathering Storm ruleset in a Single Player game. Additionally you must start in the ancient era, other settings and game modes can be customised to your own liking. An important thing to note is that settings preset saves the mod list from when you created it, so if you want to use a setting preset with this you must create it after installing the Archipelago mod.
4. To connect to the room open the Archipelago Launcher, from within the launcher open the Civ6 client and connect to the room. Once connected to the room enter your slot name and if everything went right you should now be connected.
