I got an Idea about a new trait for Japan, Sakoku

The Idea

Here is what im thinking.

Civilization: Japan
Leader: Oda Nobunaga same
UA: Sakoku or Isolation - In times of war Japan gains :c5gold:Gold half the amount of :c5food:Food or :c5production:Production from trade routes it sends within its Empire.(what i mean is, if Osaka send +8:c5production: production/:c5food:food to Kyoto, an additional +4:c5gold: gold also would be gain from it.) Who cares if you embargo me?
Also in times of war all Caravans, Cargo ship Japan send to other Civ/CS will be brought back to its origin City. And if you think it would be overpowered trade routes, maybe Japan could create only half the available number of trade routes to be its internal trade routes.
maybe it would be cool also if in some ways Japan could gain also some Beakers.?

UU: Samurai - Replace Longswordsman, same but improve
promotion: Great Generals II, Bushido(unit fight as full strength even though when damage)

UU: Zero - Replace fighter,
much better than the normal Fighter

UB: Dojo - Replace Barracks
Gains (x) amount of :c5culture:culture everytime a unit is been trained/built in a city where the Dojo is present.

(x) = Trained unit's combat strength
ex. Warrior
:c5strength:8
gain culture would be 8 :c5culture:

or if overpowered, . .
(x) = Trained unit's combat strength / 2

ex. Warrior
:c5strength:8
gain culture when trained 4 :c5culture:


As what they do before on France UA (Acien Regime: +2 culture until Steam) which they changed to City of lights on BNW, but the + 2 culture is till there in the presence of Chateau. So maybe the Bushido, we could keep that on Samurai only, anyway Bushido is Samurai's Warrior code, it should stick with the Samurai only.

About the New UA, Sakoku; this would be very useful. Just imagine that while you sends all production/food in one of your city because you want to build a wonder, but afraid that your treasury will run out, But you are Japan, you get gold from trade routes with in your empire, it might not be that big, but enough to fill a little to your treasury until you finish your dream wonder. :D
Also if you are in times of war, when everybody hates you and make DOW, you can't send any Caravans/ Cargo Ship on those enemy Cities, your only Choice would be CS(if they are not allied to your enemy) why sent it to CS for a small amount of gold, if you could send it to your Cities,to gain Production, so that you could create enough units to defeat those attacking Enemy Army, while also gaining just enough Gold to maintain your army until the war is over.

The Problem

I don't think that it would be impossible to do this in Lua or maybe on DLL programming, maybe it would just be hard to code this. But im not a good Lua programmer, and i know very little about this language. I don't know how to code this in Lua or in DLL, so im asking anyone who is willing to help me make this Mod possible. It would be great if somebody could provide a Lua for the Trait, Unit Promotion and the Building

Also, I already have a Building Art Icon for the Dojo
