These are to be used in some scenarios Mr. TETurkhan is currently working on - regional specific goodyhuts.

The idea is to manually place all goodyhuts so, that certain types appear on only certain areas. These goodyhuts can be used in epic random games, but it may look a bit funny to find igloos in large desert or in a jungle :lol: .

Top row: Asian temple, Mesoamerican ruins, North-American teepees
Middle row: Siberian yurts, North-African houses, Inuit igloos
Bottom row: European mystic buidings, South-African village

Top job! What a good idea.
The stonehenge one looks especially nice. Will you be doing any more of these?
 
:thumbsup: Those are great
 
Since I preplace all goody huts on the world map used in the scenarios this works out perferctly. Great Job aaglo :goodjob:

There are many more animations and graphics that will be included in the scenarios currently being worked on - consider this a sneak peek ;)
 
Very nice idea!

But I'm curious about one thing: how do i get the goody hut I want on the tile i want. I mean, I don't see any system in the way, the editor chooses the goody hut. And if I delete a goody hut and place a new one on the same tile, I always get the same icon :sad: .
 
you have to place the goodyhut to a different tile, then you might get the result you want.

The goodyhuts follow a specific (yet unknown) pattern. I haven't bothered to check that pattern out. I think you could rather easily check the goodyhut pattern by replacing the goody-hut images with numbers from 1 to 8. Then in editor just place the map full of goodyhuts, and see the results.

It's a shame, that the goodyhuts-file isn't terrain-related (that way you could determine what kind of goodyhuts go to mountains, hills, grassland... ect.)
 
you got problems when a igloo appears in the middle of a desert
or on a mountain top...
if only goodie huts were terrain specific, cos these are really great graphics!

Reading the thread starting post wouldn't be too much to ask... :mischief:
 
These are definitely the best goodie huts ever! And they'd work fine on a random map with the igloos removed, IMO, for those who want to use them for that.
