I am trying to make a temp update mod for Time x10 all in one mod. Until the mod author can update it. I am trying to change the era's for the new ages mechanic. I want the turns to be 10x bigger. If I directly change the xml I can increase it, but when I try to make a mod using modbuddy, It either doesn't work or the game resets to the main menu when trying to start it.
So this is what I am doing
solution 1
Time x10 eras
x10 eras.xml
the xml looks like this
GameData>
<Eras_XP1>
<Update>
<Where EraType="ERA_CLASSICAL" />
<Set GameEraMinimumTurns="400" />
<Set GameEraMaximumTurns="600" />
</Update>

<Where EraType="ERA_MEDIEVAL" />

I hope that is correct. The next step i guess is to figure out how the **** to add actions. I right click Time x10 eras and open up the properties. This part is the confusing part. I have no idea what to do on this screen. I don't know what the hell custom properties are and associations I guess is just linking the mod to other mods, so they all have to be activated. The comes front end actions and ingame actions, I added this to both.
type udatedatabase
id Time x10 eras
file x10 eras.xml
I tried just adding front end actions and it loads up but no change. I do in game action and it cuts back to main menu. I am extremely frustrated at this point. I need help. Was also planning on updating the R.E.D. mod but if i can't get this simple xml mod to work, then i can't fix a bigger mod. Hopefully someone helps me soon while I am still on vacation and can enjoy this game.
