OK, I've taken the plunge and with little more than Gingerbreads "Learn Python" thread, I've been able to make some improvements to the Domestic Advisor in the game.
Here is a screenshot of the advisor that ships with the game.
The column headings are: Date founded (capital?), City Name, Population, Happiness, Unhappiness, Angry, Food produced, Healthy, Unhealthy, Food eaten, Hammers, Gold, Science, Culture, Total Culture, Great People, Total Great People, Producing
List of Changes
1. Removed the Capital Star from the Date
2. Add a Religions column
3. Add a City Garrison column
4. Combine Happy/Unhappy/Angry into "Net Happiness"
5. Combine Food produced/eaten into "Food Turns until Growth"
6. Combine Healthy/Unhealthy into "Net Healthiness"
7. Add City Maintenance Cost
8. Add Turns til Production Complete
9. Institute Landmarks
Landmarks are to visually represent which cities contain special buildings or special situations. Examples are Versaille/Forbidden Palace, National Wonders, Power Plants, Revolt, Occupation.
In the release version, there are still some functions that we can't directly access (or at least I can't) with python yet, but in the future Landmarks will designate whether a city is having We Love the King Day. Other suggestions I've heard were to show World Wonders that allow or create their own unit, airports, courthouses...
Screenshot of the Improved Version
Column Headings:
Date founded, City Name (with landmarks), Religions, Population, City Garrison Strength, Net Happiness, Food Turns to Growth, Net Health, Hammers, Gold, City Maintenance, Science, Culture, Total Culture, Great People, Total Great People, Producing, Turns to Production Complete.
In the Landmarks section, The Gold Star is Capital, Silver Star is Versaille/Forbidden Palace, the Bullet is a National Wonder (limit 2), Power, Occupation and Occupation Timer.
You can get the mod here. Unzip it into your "My Documents/My Games/Civ 4/" folder or whereever you are saving your games via /ALT.
Issues: Might cause an unhandled python exception if you should lose a city to barbarians at some point, but should still display correctly.
Bug reports and comments/suggestions are welcome.
Enjoy
