1.) At the very first turn the vic screen says: "
-1 rivals left".
Came with BUG. Easy to change.
2.) Tech tree:
- Replaceable Parts: Why another "chop"? Isn't that already available with IW? Or do I get more hammers out of chopping?
There are two ways to remove trees in CCV. You can burn them down or you can chop them. If you burn them down you will get no
. But if you chop them you will get 30
. But there is a difference between forest and jungle. Forest can be choped with iron working while you need replaceable parts to chop jungle. That's it.
- Printig Press is the only tech without any (additional) benefit. Intentional?
Never thought about it. So, not intentional. But I think it is not urgent but we will search for a solution. Good hint.
- Wheel, Construction: Would it be possible to add some information to "unsurfaced road" and "surfaced road"? So that - when you hover over the buttons - you will see what they will do (e.g. "1/2 road movement" or "1/3 road movement" or something along these lines). Perhaps they could (also or instead, whatever you prefer) be listed under improvements in the civilopedia (so that you can right-click on them in the tech screen and get a civilopedia info)?
Sure. I'll add something.
3.) While I am usually not a fan of adding too many techs to the already crowded tech tree I would like to raise one thought:
MC is still a very expensive tech, so usually triremes will come rather late in the game - I often don't use them at all, except if I have done an Oracle-MC slingshot. One way to make them a bit easier to get could be to introduce a tech after sailing which makes triremes available but which is not as expensive as MC and perhaps will have other advantages as well (perhaps some that are now available with sailing? -> Phungus420 did that in his LoR-mod with his "seafaring"-tech and I found this to be a neat idea). It is just a thought, so dismiss it if you don't like it.
Why not.
Those ideas and hints are very welcome. Modding takes some much of my freetime that I haven't played a game for months. Maybe even years...
4.) I started a game with Ramses: Is it intentional that I have two warriors right from the very beginning? Well, I liked it, but wanted to ask about it.
I don't know if it should be like this. I haven't made any change. But we can do what ever you and the others want. Seems not to be very hard to change or fix.
Score-list: Why does it say "Egyptian tribes"(=plural)? Shouldn't it be "Egyptian tribe" (=singular)?
Because I wanted it to be like this.
I thought about ancient times. I thought about those times in europe. Especially I thought about my ancestors - the Germanics. A single tribe? No. There were lots of them. And a single tribe with 10000+ members? No. I don't like it. And so I decided for tribes.
Oh, and thanks for the new options button ("BUG")!
No problem. Thank you.
This was a little job. And it makes sence. Also good job to you!

Yes. I'm the boss. This is my mod. And the final decision is mine. Yes, that's the way it is. But the idea of CCV was always to be and to become a community project. We can talk about everything. You can ask for what ever you want. Not everything can and will be done. I can't do everything. But it makes no sence to create a mod nobody likes. It doesn't make sence to design a mod that is IMBA. No.
At last we are team. Yes, we are. We must be. I like to do modding. And I always try to do a good job. A mod should be running stable and as fast as possible. And the AI should be able to use the new and changed stuff. Many other mods don't care about it. That's not my way. And of course the game should stay well balanced. You should have fun and not become frustrated... That's my part. Lifetime is limited - yours and mine.
Creating a complex mod like CCV is a hard job. Especially if you got no time to play like me. And that makes us a team. You play and test for me. I need good comments and hints. Especially mistakes in third party mods will never be noticed if you don't tell me. For example I have never seen the new BUG screens. It's the truth - I don't know them. And so if you see a bug or if you desire a change - please make a screenshot - please give my a save and tell me the version it is from. That are five minutes for you but often much more for me. Creating CCV took me hundreds of hours. So I think it's a very good deal. And the less time I need to fix a problem the more time I've got to create new stuff.
