"Faction Control" provides you with a number of configuration options that you can use to tailor which and how many faction groups and faction bases show up on your map. Simply visit "Mod Settings" from the game's "Options" menu.

Options:
Disable Faction Limits
Enabling this setting will prevent the Create World menu from adding more than 11 factions to a world.

Override Faction Max Count
Force modded factions that do not specify "maxConfigurableAtWorldCreation" to show up in the base game's Create World Faction Count tab.
It's on by default. If anyone runs into issues with this setting please disable it in settings and restart the game.

Population Override
If the Min/Max values are changed, this will greatly override the "Population" slider on the Create World page.

Tile Distance Between Faction Groups
Specify either/both the Minimum/Maximum distances that faction groups can spawn from each other.

This is an advanced option and can easily prevent faction groups from spawning on the map and will take many tries to get the values to work. Leave it disabled to keep base game behavior.

Faction Base Density
Allows Factions' settlement to be closer together. If "Off", the base game's logic is used. If "On", the settlements will be closer together the more "Crowded" the slider bar is moved to the left.

It's an issue with the Faction control mod. Blue Moon should trechnically never be created more than once at gamestart

Facton control will override min/max values based on the user's settings. Play around with the frequency in the Modded Factions mod options

I like this MOD and wish it was properly maintained.  2 problems I seen right from the start.  It's not properly updated for B19 because it uses the old style relations. Also, all the factions that are the same type have the same color.

No, it doesn't. But the factions don't necessarily all like you, either.

A faction can be unfriendly *without* being hostile. A faction with a rating of -5 doesn't like you, but it is a *lot* closer to liking you than it is to declaring war on you.

In vanilla, factions start out either liking you or being openly hostile, which frankly makes no sense. With this mod, factions can start out anywhere along the spectrum. If I recall correctly, you should always have at least one faction that likes you, though it's entirely possible to start the game with most factions not liking you. But the actual percentage of *hostile* factions is the same whether you're using the mod or not.

Nope, all of them are -75 to -100 "hostile"

The base game changed with b19. Civil outlanders and tribes will be friendly and rough will be hostile. I've taken the code that randomizes the civility of the different factions for now as it was causing too many factions to be hostile. I'll take another pass at that code in the next day or two

Kiame

Update:
Added some randomness to Tribal and Outlander goodwill toward the player.
Gental settlements will still prefer to be neutral but have a chance to be hostile
Rough settlements will still prefer to be hostile but have a chance to be neutral

Want something broken let me know

...yeah there's something not working quite right with modded factions

Update:
Found a bug in my code with Modded Factions. The number of settlements should be much better now
