    Retreat before combat property

    Thanks - but - When I use SQLite manager to connect to (roughly) user\documents\mygames\smc5\cache\Civ5CoreDatabase.db I can't see this promotion in the UnitPromotions table (or the Incan slinger in the units table come to mention it)... What am i doing wrong, am I connected to the wrong db?

    Retreat before combat property

    I seem to remember seeing units (like horse skirmishers and maybe some other units) sometimes exercise the ability to "retreat before melee to avoid combat". But I can't figure out how/where that property is being implemented? (eg is it a promotion or a property intrinsic to a unit class or...

    New to the Forums ; I want help discussing and developing my ideas

    Golf course. Very funny. Well, off the top of my head... I'd say most of your suggestions are doable. It sounds like you want to do a humorous mod, so go all out, here are some suggestions: Trump - 1% chance accidentally declares war on another civ each turn - Wall of America, give more...

    Best way to preposition units on map?

    What would be the best way to position starting units on specific map coordinates (and ideally with individual names) using xml, sql or lua? Obviously I can place them using the map editor, but my work regularly gets wiped for some reason if I accidentally load the map (even in modbuilder)...

    How to change terrain defence bonus

    I'd like to experiment with terrain defence bonuses. I can see the Terrains table has a column for defence but its empty. Where would I find the xml or lua that initialises these values? Thanks. PS: I can't seem to find the random-dumb-question-about-modding section. Hope here is OK.

    Lua for enhanced flank attacks

    OK, great, it appears from this thread flanking bonus calculation already works along the lines of, more units, better. https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/flanking-and-flanking-bonuses-explained.566280/ I just assumed it only kicked in with the promotion, but in fact the promotion yields a...

    Lua for enhanced flank attacks

    I'd like to implement an enhanced flank attack system, so that * the attacker gets a 25% bonus if it has a friend adjacent to the defender (same as the current system) * but gets 50% if they have two friends adjacent to the defender * 75% if they have 4 friends adjacent * 100% if they have 5...

    How to select a models variant skin?

    When I define a new unit, I can't figure out how to tell civ which skin to use for that unit. For example Snafusmith's T-72 unit mod has the following files, which provide 5 different skins, if only I could use them... T72.dds T72.fxsxml T72.gr2 T72 Algeria.dds T72 India.dds T72 Iraq.dds T72...

    Thanks very much Troller! I'm just getting started with the lua, so such broad examples are very helpful.

    Lua to transfer strength between units

    I'd be grateful for any advice on how to write a Lua function that 1) triggers when you disband a unit and 2) distributes its remaining hit points among neighbouring units.

    Unit Request Thread

    A "fixed" SAM missile launcher position would be helpful. Something like a SA-3, Nike or even Patriot.

    An M113 APC unit would be great ... wikipedia says it was named the most significant military vehicle in history by military channel, whatever that is!
