Hello !

I just discovered this mod with version 1.9.7 and I have a few questions :

1) Workers begin surface mine and surface well. Discover the latest technologies allows for underground mine and underground well. Do you know if there is an option to automatically upgrade its facilities ? (just now, each worker has to work over)

2) Auto workers (if enabled) systematically create outposts on resources. Do you know why? (same for IA)

Thanks for advance
 
Hi Aldareis, welcome to the CFC forums.

1) Automated workers will build over lower tier wells and mines if you do not select "do not build over existing improvements". However, they will sometimes also build over other improvements if you allow this.
2) Outputs give access to the resource of the tile they are on like the "normal" resource improvement does (but without increasing the tile yield), but also spreads your culture to adjacent tiles.
So for tiles that are outside the "BFC" tiles that a city can work, the lack of tile yield doesn't matter, and the culture spread can be useful, so outposts are a superior improvement, hence why the AI and automated workers will build them.
 
Ok thank for the answer.

If I understand if I want to "optimize" my workers, it is better to use without automation.

Facilities for propagating the culture, only outpost it allows this ?

Yes, if you want to optimize to your tastes then you can't automate. Though if you adopt the Arrakis spice civic then you can automate spice workers, who only build harvesters (and have a high movement and improvement build rate).

Outputs, military victory, and of course all the normal things that increase culture in Civ4 (bulidings, noble specialists and great nobles).

Yes, I've realized recently. It's fun win culture through it :)

All workers have an automate spice order available now, and there is another new automation that should send workers to upgrade upgradable improvements(surface mines-->deep mines, etc)

OK thanks for the information.
