Hero unit Arthendain starts with Medic 3, However he can then get First Aid, is this a mistake? My lizard men workers can not create swamp although they can destroy it, also they cant shape jungle. Furthermore they do not have xp gain.

About More naval AI modmod. Would be nice applying it to RifE, because AIs plays worse than anything i saw ever. Declaring wars only by a power number, but never send troops piles, or act minimal smart at least how BTS AIs fight... AIs in RifE are totally broken. I saw AIs declaring war to me only with 2 scouts, or keeping inside their borders in a stupid defensive play. Better, i put 1 enemy city undersiege with my stack, and the idiotic AIs send 1 mage alone behind me for creating 1 mana node, rofl.... and better dont talk about their workers creating things near my army.
Fukin awesome. I begin too believe AIs on RifE are programmed only for being builders and kill other AIs civs in early rushes. Elseway, they are absolutely mindless. And i repeat, for this, would be better at least put them the basic BTS AI templates.

just so you know the "basic AI template" cannot use FFH.... so even RifE's AI is better than the BTS template... but it has to use a much more complex tool... so it is not so good.

Ok, today, my brain looks healthy enough 
to answer comprehensively to everything you posted in the past weeks.
- UF means Unique Feature
- Elohim gain a new trait (for example industrious)when they send a unit on some unique features
What makes it imbalanced is that almost nothing protects the unique features
As for the features inside the "Keepers of the Holy Places" module, I think I'll study them after these first points are fixed.
(please send me PM with your e-mail address so we can cooperate)
I only added a few python bugs for now (#43, #44, #45, #46).
chan: #erebus
As I don't understand a word of spanish, if you can add a basic english version of the quotes you imagined, I'll correct them when you publish them. (or I can use an online translation service, hoping the algorithm isn't too bad)
Thanks.
Corrected problem with quotes. (there were a total of 10 occurences " ‘ ")
Raider and Lizardmen put in the todo list.
Moreover, https not working for you could mean very bad things (unless you're connecting from your work: some companies block these connections in the proxy)
If it's your personal computer, does https work on other websites, mainly your e-mail or bank account ? If not, you should get a geeky friend to help you check it, in case it's a virus (and/or worm, trojan, keylogger, ...)
Thanks.

Regarding binders, they are not supposed to gain free XP. As I remember, it's one of numerous features (with fallow, ...) that pushes them into being warmongers.
Definitively a feature.
bug #92: The Civpedia needs an update (binder description, and D'tesh Civ Strategy)
Errrr...
- either my upload was corrupted somehow. (but nobody else complained in the past week)
- or your download was corrupted somehow
- or Winrar can't read .7z using the (LZMA2) algorithm (I use it because it's one of the best, and lots of compression software can read it)
I don't use Winrar (why use proprietary shareware, when there is open-source software, that is at least as good, if not better), so can't help you more than that.
Perhaps give another file archiver a try, and tell us the result.
I know it isn't
The idea is that RifE development is at a complete halt, except for snarko, who does a few updates, mainly to the DLL.
As the former RifE team has no control over the changes I bring (after all, I'm an independant coder/debugger), it's better to consider my work as a modmodmod, than as a patch to RifE (which would mean they endorse me)
I hope this explains why this subject is not in the sticky section, and why the RifE changelog shows (and will probably continue to show) 1.4 as the last version
@sammoraj: wow, you've been very active
1) Mazatl: mainly what Viatos said
Don't try to build improvements (except perhaps using the N key for workers)
Swamps and jungle everywhere works well.
I'll have to play another game with them to give a better strategy.
2) Arthendain:
I think medic is for healing of allies, while First Aid is auto-heal.
I'll have to check ingame if getting that promotion has any benefit
3) meteor view range: no idea. I'll have to try.
You should really try to read the AI code in the dll. (I obviously mean the C++ source)
1) It's huge
2) It already includes several improvements from MoreNavalAI
3) It's hard to read, harder to write, horrible to debug.
4) The difficulty is not imagining what the AI should do (I already have lots of pseudo-code for it in my mind); it's getting the AI to f...... do it
4) You can notice that AI problems are already mentioned at the bottom of the bug spreadsheet.
5) Right now, I haven't the knowledge to write it. Maybe dozens (hundreds) of hours reading the C++ code will allow me to get it. Or not. Anyway, I didn't see anyone come with a chunk of code that allows RifE AIs to become geniuses.
PS: If I ever sound angry, it's at the code, not at you
PS2: If someone feels up to the task, I would really enjoy knowing if the MoreNavalAI makes Calabim vampires feed on their cities (and if they do, ideally, I'll have to read how this task is written in the code)
to answer comprehensively to everything you posted in the past weeks.Translation to other players:
- UF means Unique Feature
- Elohim gain a new trait (for example industrious)when they send a unit on some unique features
What makes it imbalanced is that almost nothing protects the unique features
- guardians are optional (I've to check how it works)
- the AI isn't effective enough (does not see the UF as something crucial)
- Improving the AI will require weeks/months of me studying MoreNavalAI C++ code, to get how it works, and to adapt it to specific civs.
- When you play MP, every human will try to get a few unique features (for themselves or for trade). And if they play against elohim, they will put more effort into it, just to deny them the racial bonuses.
- The elohim do not need the UF to be inside their territory
- Check if elohim can ask an AI for open borders, and get one of their units to the UF of the neighbour and get the bonus
As for the features inside the "Keepers of the Holy Places" module, I think I'll study them after these first points are fixed.
The mod is huge, so any help is welcome.If you need any help, I'm okay at python coding

Answer to Calavente:
Anyways, the AIs on BTS at least declare war to me starting with an invader stack of units, and go for main targets (as cities or key resources); RifE AIs on RifE dont do that (the minimal expression of intelligence). The reason for this isnt important, it happens, simply. AIs are Artificial, but no Intelligence xD
Answer to Rhonkar:
1- Scions bugs: i take my word back: they are almost perfect. The only thing i consider 1 bug is u can create both Heroes (korrina and Risen emperor) no matter if someone of them is your Civ leader (opossiting to written rule on civpedia)
2- Embers clan world spell bug: it only happens when im playing it. AIs summons the espected, but i use WS and i summon EVERYTHING. So its something related to human control.
3- Healer missing text fix: ok, ill send you fixed file and ill try traduct to english (no google)
4- U get 1 item but it says another: it happens when i found that green venom trinket (dont know english name), that system say i found 1 potion.
5- winrar fail: tell me what unzziper u use.
6- MNAI modmod. Forget about it, not a priority.

Hi,
Today's brainstorming is DWARVES.
Quick summary:
Dwarf units have a move bonus on hills, but the current code doesn't work.
I tried to fix it, but none of my solutions works.
Have you any ideas?
---------------------------------------------------------------- DETAILS ----------------------------------------------------------------
Dwarf units have a racial promotion "dwarven" which contains:
Examples to highlight the bug effect:
Let's move a unit towards grassland hills
PS: "guerilla2" gives double movement on hills, whichs works correctly
---------------------------------------------------------------- 1st TEST ----------------------------------------------------------------
When you read PROMOTION_DWARF in CIV4PromotionInfos.xml, you can see
I changed this value to -5 and +5
--> The movement cost does not change. Is this code useless?
---------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd TEST ----------------------------------------------------------------
When you read TERRAIN_HILL in CIV4TerrainInfos.xml, you can see
I changed this value to 0, then to 10
--> The movement cost does not change. Is this code useless?
---------------------------------------------------------------- 3rd TEST ----------------------------------------------------------------
PROMOTION_LIZARDMAN has the following code (which works)
Since TERRAIN_MARSH, TERRAIN_TAIGA,TERRAIN_TUNDRA are specified alongside TERRAIN_HILL in CIV4TerrainInfos.xml, I adapted it for PROMOTION_DWARF in CIV4PromotionInfos.xml
--> The movement cost does not change
---------------------------------------------------------------- 4th TEST ----------------------------------------------------------------
PROMOTION_WASTELAND_DEFENDER has the following code (which works)
Since TERRAIN_WASTELAND is specified alongside TERRAIN_HILL in CIV4TerrainInfos.xml, I adapted it for PROMOTION_DWARF in CIV4PromotionInfos.xml
--> The movement cost does not change
---------------------------------------------------------------- 5th TEST ----------------------------------------------------------------
I tested some of these solutions for TERRAIN_PEAK
It's the same: no effect at all.
---------------------------------------------------------------- Solution 1 ----------------------------------------------------------------
Change "dwarf" promotion to include guerilla 1 & 2
Consequences:
---------------------------------------------------------------- Solution 1 variant 1 (less powerful) ----------------------------------------------------------------
Change "dwarf" promotion to include guerilla 2
Consequences:
---------------------------------------------------------------- Solution 1 variant 2 (more powerful) ----------------------------------------------------------------
Change "dwarf" promotion to include guerilla 1&2
Consequences:
---------------------------------------------------------------- Other solutions ----------------------------------------------------------------
Give other bonuses to dwarves (not related to movement on hills)

Change "dwarf" promotion to include guerilla 1 & 2
- add double movement on hills
- add 45% hills attack
- add 60% hills defense
- make dwarf exclude guerilla1&2 (if dwarf, then cannot buy guerilla 1)
Consequences:
- Dwarves are very powerful in hills from the beginning
- Units with guerilla 1&2 are equivalent to dwarves on hills.
---------------------------------------------------------------- Solution 1 variant 1 (less powerful) ----------------------------------------------------------------
Change "dwarf" promotion to include guerilla 2
- add double movement on hills
- add 25% hills attack
- add 30% hills defense
- make dwarf exclude guerilla2 (if dwarf, then cannot buy guerilla 2)
Consequences:
- Dwarves are powerful in hills from the beginning
- Units with guerilla 1&2 are better than dwarves on hills.
- Units with guerilla 1&2 are equivalent to guerilla1 dwarves on hills.

- Units with guerilla 1&2 are weaker than guerilla1 dwarves on hills.
---------------------------------------------------------------- Other solutions ----------------------------------------------------------------
Give other bonuses to dwarves (not related to movement on hills)
- easy add defense bonus on hills?
- easy add free "magic resistance" promotion
- harder create an "entrench" spell (augment defense and/or add "hidden" on a hill, cancelled by movement or attack) WARNING TO SELF: "entrench" spell exists (mechanos only, fortifies units)

I was recently playing a game as Auric, and noted down a few bugs and comments:
When becoming a Greater Werewolf: "Has reached the peek" should be "Has reached the peak"
When Baron Duin Halfmorn has Subdue Animal and kills an animal, combat results in both a subdued animal and a werewolf animal. (May be the case for other werewolves, not tested)
Spell "Steal Cattle" has no description, not even one saying it has no proper description. (Was browsing through the Civiliopedia)
Also, a comment/complaint (I know the Civiliopedia is incomplete and a lot of work, but this was annoying): Late in the game, I was hit by a spell (I assume) that damaged all my units with death damage, shrank my cities, and gave them each 30-60 unhealthiness from 'blight,' of which I could find no mention anywhere in the Civilopedia. The Event log merely said 'Spell resisted' and then all the effects - I'm assuming I resisted with the first unit or city, and so it didn't bother to tell me the name, but then it hit the rest of my units and cities. I have no idea what caused this or how to fix it.
I checked world spells thoroughly, and couldn't find any that did anything like this - and the only civs left at this point were the Cualli and Clan of Embers. It happened the turn after I destroyed the Archos, though I doubt that's related.

That's called Blight, and this is the first sign of Apocalypse. When Armageddon Counter reaches 30 - BAM! - enjoy your global death damage and 60 unhealth.
copy/pasting text I tried to post yesterday, but CFC went down:
First of all: hills are not features or terrains. Neither are peaks. They are their own special cases, with special rules. So when you see <iMovement>1</iMovement> for hills it means nothing. How much extra it cost to traverse hills is decided by the HILLS_EXTRA_MOVEMENT GlobalDefine. So yes, the iMovement tag for hills is useless. As is TerrainDoubleMoves etc because hills is not a terrain.
I followed the code and iHillMoveCost is indeed bugged. It did nothing. I've fixed it. The value was saved etc, it was just the one line making it actually do something that was missing.
How it works in the DLL I just uploaded:
<iHillMoveCost>-1</iHillMoveCost> will simply remove the extra cost added by the terrain being a hill. So moving into a grassland hill will cost 1 move. Moving into a forested grassland hill will cost 2 movement, because that is the cost for moving into a forest.
I believe this is how it's supposed to work, making it less powerful than double moves.

Thanks. Corrected that.
I found some code trying to prevent the double capture. I will read that in details later
Code:
if (pOpponent.getCaptureUnitType(pOpponent.getCivilizationType()) == -1 and gc.getUnitInfo(pCaster.getUnitType()).getUnitCreateFromCombat() == -1): #Prevents gaining 2 units from a single combat, could still get a Wolf and a Slave right now however, but don't want to have Werewolves disabled completely by following Slavery CivicMhmmm, never heard about the spell.

As Gangrin said, it's caused by the high Armageddon Counter.
I'll see what info we can add to the Armageddon article (category FFH concepts)
Ronkhar bows humbly before all this knowledge
That's exactly what I wanted.

bug or exploit? i take, for example, a dominated elephant to a city and have it make the elephant stable. this releases the elephant back to the wild, which i then re-dominate and move on to the next city. repeat....
you can also upgrade the elephant to war elephant which is under the dominators control and puts the elephant back in the wild to be dominated again.

So I'm in a Khazad game atm Arturus Leader. Game crashes as I complete Guild of Hammers. Any ideas? I downloaded the complete link from the 19th. Second game I have had this issue. Going to try it with Bannor to see if it is a dwarven thing since they have a UB with it.

Ok.
Errrr. No. The unit is meant to disappear. (and it's what it did for me 2 minutes ago). Or do you mean there is a function ingame that makes sure there are always elephants on the map?
When you read the code, it is the exact same function for the elephants, great people and supplies (you put them in your city and you "recycle" them into a building)
If it does something else in your game and you have not modded anything, send me your save on the turn you build the stable (when you still have the elephant).
I tried it (accelerating the game with worldbuilder).
Khazad (UB=dwarven smithy) --> crash
Mazat (standard forge)--> no problem.
mechanos (UB = factory) --> no problem
So most likely a specific problem.
Thanks
Dwarven smithy can't be opened in civpedia.
edit: The problem comes from the art for dwarven smithy.
I tested replacing it with another one and it worked like a charm.
Code:
<!-- <ArtDefineTag>ART_DEF_BUILDING_DWARVEN_SMITHY</ArtDefineTag> -->
<ArtDefineTag>ART_DEF_BUILDING_TOWER_OF_NECROMANCY</ArtDefineTag>I'm now checking if it comes from the nif file (Art/Structures/Buildings/Dwarven Smithy/GauriFoundry.nif)
Code:
<!--<NIF>Art/Structures/Buildings/Dwarven Smithy/GauriFoundry.nif</NIF> -->

it happens with any dominated unit (I just do it with animals for the city and scout benefits)
'killing' the unit makes it barbarian again in an adjacent tile. i'll upload a save on Saturday where gibbon is taking an elephant for a walk
