Edit the .eug file
You can edit the xxx.eug file (xxx denotes filename) found in the saves directory using the wordpad application.
Scroll thru the lines until you come up to your nation/side. Pay attention to { and } symbols when doing this edit.
Keywords:
treasury: edit money (limit is approx 2 billion)
city: edit city name, population (max = 999999.000), infrastructure. City must at least have level 1 wall. Fully developed city has following lines:
land unit: edit name and number of infantry/cavalry/artillery each land unit has. Watch out for artillery, not too many. I prefer the following combination 30000/5000/150 (weight=50).
nav unit: same as land unit except this one is for naval
technology: edit all tech level. Set 51 for military techs and 10 for rest.
diplomats, colonists, merchants, missionary: edit number of these guys (max=6)
You can also do this dirty trick:
Set up a level 1 trading post at a neighboring state and save the game once the attempt is successful. Edit level 1 to level 6 in the following line: trading post = { "name" level = 1 location = xxx}. A level 6 trading post won't give you any rebellion problems once transformed into a colony.
Changing this line to: city = ("name" population = 999999.000 location = xxx} will automatically transform the trading post to a fully populated colony. Warning: could inspire revolt if religion is different from yours and you do not tolerate that religion at all.
