While that's true, you shouldn't assume that people who are still working on modding FFH2 would even necessarily want to spend time working on a similar mod for Civilization 6.

This probably wouldn't be that difficult to implement. The harder thing would be the conditions for what happens when strike craft are involved and the "colony ships escorted by another vessel" thing. Which is to say, I'd have to think about how you'd handle that, but simply hooking the on unit...

Well, even if it is, "most moddable" doesn't necessarily mean "easiest to make total conversion mods", unfortunately. But we'll see, I guess. Wow, thanks! I've never been 100% happy with the way the Frozen turned out, but I'm glad you enjoyed them. :) I always intended to make more FFH...

Thanks! Using the replacement lobby seems to have worked. :)

The lack of total conversion mods in the same vein of FFH2 is one of the biggest reasons I am still primarily a Civ 4 player and not a Civ 5 player. I realized in the latter days of Civ 4 that I cared a lot less about Civ 4 as a game and a lot more about it as a game engine. As a result I never...

So, I have a friend IRL who I learned relatively recently also likes FFH2, and so for the first time in... uh, forever? I've been looking into how to play multiplayer. As I have very little experience playing MP in Civ 4 (it's the first time in many years since I have played a MP game, and back...

Sounds like you're looking for the updatePlotYield function in FinalFrontierEvents.py. This isn't implemented via XML tags at all at the moment, but instead BUILDINGCLASS_LUNAR_BASE is hardcoded. If you're adding another building with the mechanic, maybe adding a boolean XML tag for this...

Well, the city screen interface will need to be edited a bit to make room for the Specialists interface again, but there are no other technical bottlenecks. There is something of a game design bottleneck. Namely: I do not know where wonders, GPs, and specialists can or should be plugged into...

It appears to be, as buildings have the FoundCorporation tag: <FoundsCorporation>NONE</FoundsCorporation> But I also agree, I would like to see Final Frontier have Great People. Now, whether or not I ever get around to implementing them, I can't say. :(

Nice work! I may look into this for Final Frontier Plus for precisely this reason; I too feel demotivated to work on and especially release FF+ due to all the manual steps required to do so. I also use Inno Setup to generate my installers and git for version control (as you know from my recent...

Nice, glad it worked! Maybe this documentation will be helpful for you if you haven't already found it?

Known behavior, that IIRC is an artifact of moving the wormholes implementation from Python to C++, but I forget why. I've treated this as a mild inconvenience, but it is a bug and something I'll try to fix for the next release. Huh, that's odd. Can you perhaps post a save where you had...

No problem! Let me know if you run into any issues, I'd be happy to help debug (and update this tutorial accordingly). :)

Heh, yep. It took some trial and error to get this working.

Huh, this was much easier than I expected.

For a while now, I've wanted the ability to automatically fire off builds of the DLL whenever someone pushes commits to it's repository. As of today I'm pleased to say I've accomplished this, so I figured I'd post a brief tutorial for anyone else who might be interested in doing the same...

(Merged the aforementioned changes!) This reminds me that I really wanted automated building of the DLL in some kind of CI system... I wonder how difficult that will be to set up using AppVeyor.

I'm afraid I probably don't know enough about pitboss games to come up with a way around this (or indeed, understand the problem), unfortunately. It looks like (poking at the PR), that getAltrootDir returns gDLL->GetPitbossSmtpLogin()? So I'm assuming this is some way to sneak the alternate...

Thanks! Could I get you to push your DLL changes against the DLL repository though, as well? The FF+ repository structure leaves something to be desired, yes. Part of the problem is that it's all a port of a SVN repo I created when I didn't really know anything about version control. I was...

Back in the day, I was hoping that Final Frontier was a backdoor pilot for a space-based 4X game by Firaxis. Sadly, it never came to be.
