1. Find the Assets folder | 找到Aeests文件夹

First you need to find "Sid Meier's Civilization VI" in your Steam Library, right click on it and select Manage-browse local files and a folder will pop up.
在Steam库里找到文明6,右键选择管理-浏览本地文件,会弹出一个窗口。

If you are using a Windows system, go to /Base/Assets
Windows系统找到/Base/Assets

If you are using MacOS, you need to right click on the "Civilization VI" application then select "Show package contents", then go to /Contents/Assets/Base/Assets, situations may vary.
MacOS系统右键点击文明6应用然后选择显示内容,然后找到/Contents/Assets/Base/Assets 实际情况可能略微不同。

2. Edit maximum number of players | 修改最大玩家数量

Go to Assets/Configuration/Data/ then you will find "MapSizes.xml", this is for ordinary maps such as "Continents", "Highlands" and "Inland Sea".
找到Assets/Configuration/Data/ 下的"MapSizes.xml",这个文件控制常规地图如“大陆”、“高地”和“内海”。

DUPLICATE IT FIRST then open the file with Notepad/TextEdit, use Ctrl/Cmd+f to find a line with:
备份文件然后用记事本/文字编辑打开,搜索:

MapSizeType="MAPSIZE_DUEL"

You may have your own ideas and below is my settings with maximum 6 players, default 6 players and 4 city states.
各人有不同偏好,我的设置是最多6个文明,默认6个文明4个城邦。

<Row MapSizeType="MAPSIZE_DUEL" Name="LOC_MAPSIZE_DUEL_NAME" Description="LOC_MAPSIZE_DUEL_DESCRIPTION" MinPlayers="2" MaxPlayers="6" DefaultPlayers="6" MinCityStates="0" MaxCityStates="6" DefaultCityStates="4" SortIndex="10" />

You may also wish to try it on other map sizes.
也可以顺便修改其他尺寸的地图。

Still in this folder, there are two more: BalanceMaps.xml for "4-Leaf Clover", "6-Armed Snowflake" and "Mirror" (changing the max number of players on a balance map may cause error); EarthMaps.xml for those real maps such as "Mediterranean Large", "Earth Huge" and "True Start Location Europe".
还是在这个文件夹内,还有另外两个文件:BalanceMaps.xml控制平衡地图,如“四叶草”、“六瓣雪花”和“镜像”(修改平衡地图的玩家数可能会报错);EarthMaps.xml控制一些真实地图如“地中海(大型)”、“地球(极大)”和“欧洲(真实开局位置)”。

Of course you can do this easily with a mod, for instance "ARS - More Players" by Arstahd.
当然也可以用mod快速解决,比如Arstahd的"ARS - More Players" 。

4. More players on huge maps? | 巨大地图

I usually only play "duel" or "tiny" maps with no more than 6 Civs, but if you wish to have more than 12 players you may need to find Assets/UI/FrontEnd/Multiplayer/StagingRoom.lua, see this guide below by Kaito-san, or you can subscribe Arstahd's "ARS - More Players" mod mentioned above.
我通常只玩决斗和极小图,不超过6个文明,但是如果需要超过12名玩家你需要找到Assets/UI/FrontEnd/Multiplayer/ 下的 “StagingRoom.lua”,详见下面的Kaito-san的指南,或订阅上文提到的mod "ARS - More Players"。
