Columns, yes, eras, don't know. I have the same 8 eras in the base game, but each of them is 4 columns of tech. Having picked through TechTree.lua, I suspect it would work, but haven't tried it.

Haven't touched number of eras. I've greatly increased the number of techs - every other era scaled automatically, this one scaled too much. EDIT: Error occurs if I have even 1 technology in the Information Era. EDIT2: Figured it out. Figures that I spent 2 days on this on-and-off and got it...

Hi folks, Sorry if this has been answered before, I tried some searches but came up empty, pretty sure I don't know what terms I need to be searching for, unfortunately. I'm updating my old (currently non-functional) Epochs mod for BNW and I'm running into a problem where the tech tree is...

I don't anticipate having more time within the next year. I'm happy to provide the files if someone else wants to take it on, but I think I have to be done with it. The only thing I want to do is, as I noted above, strip out the DLL and one or two of the Lua features that aren't working 100%...

The most important use of gold is paying maintenance costs on buildings that give happiness anyway. Cities, population and tech are power. Everything else are just ways to get those three things. Happiness gives you all three, straight up, no questions asked, since tech is so heavily tied to...

Depending on your micro skill, you can pull it off at Emperor (I have half of all of the wonders in the game right now in my Emperor difficulty turtle empire Morocco game), though it gets really hard... at Immortal you really have to prioritize and on Deity getting even one wonder is an...

This is an effect and not a cause, but it also means you have to plan ahead. If you're going to be doing some overseas colonization, are you better off saving a couple of Cargo Ships to kickstart those cities as soon as you put them down or are you better off using them to gather gold, knowing...

Think Zulu have to be up there - for a triple warmonger (UU/UA/UB), they're only a bit better at it than some of the pure peaceful civs. Impi are great and all, but not good enough compared to Keshiks, Battering Rams, triple gold from city conquest, Janissaries, and a handful of others.

They could eliminate the bad promotions, but then the good ones would be like +10% combat strength - unexciting. Yup, Indonesia is the gambler's civ. Which is fine. Not a great choice, imo, but not a horrendous one. Some people are going to like it, lots won't, but it's not going to ruin your...

I should probably put out a version sans-DLL at some point. I haven't looked at this in months, sorry. I'm in the process of building up an indie game studio, and I really have just zero time.

If Egyptians were offended, we'd still want Egypt in, right? I understand Firaxis's decision and would probably have made the same decision in their shoes, but I think the Pueblo people are in the wrong on this. You don't get to opt out of being a part of history. I can see asking for a...

Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

When I get some new art assets, absolutely. Right now it's a dependency only because I simply don't have enough appropriate art assets to go around, so I've had to raid some DLC art assets.

Not really, no, unfortunately.

Tracking down a save game issue with v13, not sure if I'll push it live as is or add some more to it once I get that issue nailed down. The only real change is the promotions - I've completely redone the land unit (Archer, Siege, Gun, Melee, Mounted, Armor, Helicopter, Recon) promotions. I've...
