hey guys again,
damn this mod is hard as hell.
i kept getting killed.
monarch level.
What are you playing on/as? Huge World Map? Random?
If it is random, then getting those Militia or Archers to withstand the barbarians is very important. You may find it useful to play as a civ with a powerful unique unit early like Persia to help get yourself out of the early game.
If it is the AI killing you, remember, you should be killing them first.
(But seriously, there is a feedback loop here: You need more units to attack other civs, and other civs are less likely to attack you if you have more units. Being a pacifist and keeping your level of units below the level it costs you money is a bad idea.)
anyway -
what is "net effect" ?
I think the net effect you are referring to is when you are building a building, yes?
Then that should be "net" effect, or total. Most of the time this is simple - "I am building something that gives +1 happiness, of course the net increase is +1 happiness."
Other times it could be: "I am building something that gives +10% production. With my current level of hammers, that equals +5 production."
But more importantly, there are times when you have a building that you are REPLACING, which means it's not just an addition, so the building tooltip would be misleading without making it net: "I have a Well already in my city, so building an aqueduct would be a -1.5% chance to epidemics, not 3.00%".
