I found that my logs are now here: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\Logs

What does this mean? My logs are not updating in the normal location (Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\Logs). Are the logs in a different location now? I haven't played in a couple months and decided to add some new mods and checkout the latest patch updates. Whenever I add new...

Thanks LeeS. Will see if Game.GetRandNum makes a difference next time I can convince my pals to try it.

Mods - meant to post this in the Mod Creation Help subforum if one of you wants to move it. Thanks!

For the two random number functions in the title (TerrainBuilder.GetRandomNumber vs Game.GetRandNum) is one better to use than the other? Especially when considering multiplayer desync issues? I made a mod that makes so unique units, improvements, and buildings are unlocked randomly. Currently...

I like p0kiehl's mods also, but did make some tweaks for his production from population mod because the original mod boosts production 3 different ways - 0.5 baseline, additional from high population, and additional from eras - and only 1 of those really helps tall. The baseline and era bonuses...

Specialists. I feel like there is a lot of potential here never tapped into and the developers have almost completely ignored them. Districts was one of the big new things for Civ6, but for some reason they made citizens working them as specialists worse than previous Civ games. Didn't even make...

My response was based on Civ6. Don't know for Civ5.

I have experimented with a few ways of disabling unit build. Currently I am just using #1, and I think that would be best for your case also but I don't think I ever checked if you can still upgrade to the unit with that method. I remember still being allowed to upgrade to the unit with #2 or...

A couple questions to save me some time experimenting with things that might be impossible. 1. If I use SQL to add a new column to an existing table like "Units". Can I access that new column in LUA when iterating over GameInfo.Units() ? 2. If I use the SetProperty function to set a property on...

Game:GetProperty(PropertyTextName) Game:SetProperty(PropertyTextName, PropertyValue) It sounds like you need these. The Get/SetProperty functions are available for Game, City, Player, Unit, and Plot objects I believe. They will be saved and loaded with the game. The BlackDeath Scenario has...

I have seen a few mods on the steam workshop that grant all uniques to certain civilizations (Brazil/Germany). Took a quick look at their code and all they seem to do is assign the existing civilization treats or leader traits as you said. For a few select UAs it looks like they had to add some...

Thanks everyone for the ideas. In my case I am not doing anything related to eras like the OP, but wanted to attach traits with LUA if possible which was part of the original question. My purpose is to unlock uniques from other civs/leaders for any player under certain circumstances. I am close...

I have a similar question. Is there any way to add traits with lua now? I want to be able to control the unlocking of unique units/improvements/buildings/districts with lua. If I could add/attach traits then that would make things simple. From what I can see for uniques it seems to be just the...

For random numbers be sure you use the Game or TerrainBuilder random number functions or you will have issues in multiplayer as described in this thread: https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/gameplay-related-lua-scripts-in-multiplayer.626600/

In LUA, how can I tell if a city was conquered, loyalty-flipped, or traded? (I think that covers all ways city ownership can change) I want to update my Key Loyalties mod for Dramatic Ages which appears to make loyalty-flipping much more common. For cities where the current owner is not the...

Thanks to some of the updates from Firaxis after this thread was started, it is now possible to do some things similar to what I was originally asking about. In the Gathering Storm expansion, Firaxis made so many of the tier 3 buildings increase the yields of citizens working that district. The...

Thanks LeeS! I didn't expect that this was something that could be done with the modifier system - the number of things supported by it continues to surprise me. I will experiment with it and see if human players that are teamed up with AI are still able to declare war/make peace.

A friend asked me if the AI could be modded to never declare war and never accept a peace deal. The purpose would be for team games where the teams are a mix of human and AI players, so that only the human players will determine when their team goes to war or accepts peace. I am not familiar...

For others reference, I think I have figured out my issue. The reason copying and pasting the entire original function does not work is because the function uses a variable (m_isLoyaltyLensActive) which is declared local in CityBannerManager.lua outside the function. If I understand correctly...
