In the building xml there is a section for captal and govenment centre... what properites does this give the building?

I want to add an 1 extra money unit per square and reduce corruption to zero for that city. Is this possible?>

The answer is yes. I'll tell you how to do it, and I'll also tell you how to figure it out on your own next time. ;)

In "CIV4BuldingInfos.xml," each building should have a section that looks like this:

<iMaintenanceModifier>-50</iMaintenanceModifier>

Most buildings will have it set to 0. The courthouse (which is the example I'm using) has it set to -50. To reduce corruption (maintenance) to 0, set the modifier to -100.

For the extra commerce, I believe you can modify it by modifiying the <YieldChanges/> section to something like


<YieldChanges>
<iYield>0</iYield>
<iYield>0</iYield>
<iYield>1</iYield>
</YieldChanges>

In the future, you can figure these things out the same way I just did - by looking at buildings that do roughly what you want and figuring out what in the code is different. :) (I looked at the Colossus and the lighthouse for two examples of buildings that currently do Yieldchanges - although theirs are Seaplot yield changes, but anyway...)

thanks for the help ham, its much appreciated. The yeild was only for the sea and not for the land. so its not quite what I was after, however I have modeled it on the other currency buildings. Thanks for your help.

I am making it for the new alpha centauri mod(http://apolyton.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?forumid=24)

thanks for the help!

hi Doogle!

<bCapital>1</bCapital> - the value can be 0 or 1 - if set to 1, this building makes this city the capital city. (You can only have one capital city.)

<bGovernmentCenter>1</bGovernmentCenter> - the value can be 0 or 1 - if set to 1, this building makes this city a government center. The Palace, Forbidden Palace, and Versailles all cause the host city to be a Government Center, which reduces maintenance costs for nearby cities.

Hope this helps! -Laina
