привет, ребята, я хочу знать, что у меня производство товаров из чудес света, но их нельзя распустить, чтобы построить здание. Как они работают? для чего они нужны подробно описать, что с ними делать? они накапливаются и Я даже не могу их удалить ?!

Hi guys, I want to know that I have a production of goods from the wonders of the world, but they can't be disbanded to build a building. How do they work? What are they for, please describe in detail what to do with them? They accumulate and I can't even delete them!

Hi, @Diversant
Sorry for the slow response.
Those units have to be captured by an allied player to convert them in to coffers of gold.
On a solo game, you can expose those units to an enemy (not barbarian) and recapture them after they’ve been converted. This system hasn’t been refined for single player yet.

Thanks, @Node60

I’ve re-uploaded the game and fixed the link.

I’m still working on 2.0 but this isn’t going to be over by Christmas.

Hello Oni Ryuu, long time no see. I noticed that Narrowboat does not work as intended. It seems that I can't load light weight units (all sorts of infantry) onto it, but I can load heavy weight units (cannons etc.) which is supposed to be Canal Barge's job. Other than that, mod is engaging and addictive as ever, but much more stable than I remember it. Progress you made is obvious. Cheers.

@Oni Ryuu

You have interesting features in your mod I'd like to put in mine. Trading units with others, would you explain how you did this with Quintillus editor?

 

[Oni Ryuu]

Hi, Jarovid

I hope you’re doing well.

I made a mistake with the Narrowboat. I selected Foot Unit instead of Transports Foot Units.

Thanks for the support.

Hi, register

1. Create your desired unit
2. Make the unit available to all civilisations
3. Mark it as a King Unit in the Unit Abilities menu
4. Create another unit with blank stats and your chosen shield cost
5. Make the unit available to all civilisations
6. Give it the Load and Upgrade command
7. Give it the Skip Turn, Wait, Fortify and Disband commands
8. Set its weight class
9. Have this unit upgrade to the first unit

Take the blank to an ally with a unit that has Hidden Nationality. This unit can capture the blank without a declaration of war.
Take the blank to the nearest city to upgrade it and receive the fully functional unit.

You might find some of this useful too.

Great! Thank you.
What is it weight class?
/edit/ I can't play your mod anytime soon, so another question, will this method be used by Ai players or only human player? It looks like good method for feeding dying civs but nothig else, just one direction transfer of good and units.

 

[Oni Ryuu]

What is it weight class?

Foot Units, Tactical Missiles, Aircraft and Normal (Heavy) Units but, this mod uses more weight classes

will this method be used by Ai players or only human player?

It’s human player only and intended for multiplayer games. It can be used in single player games to stockpile mothballed units--removing the support cost--until the unit is activated.

It looks like good method for feeding dying civs but nothig else, just one direction transfer of good and units

It’s to give small, wealthy civilisations the ability to pay for equipment that their size wouldn’t otherwise allow for. Saudi Arabia doesn’t have the ability to make its military equipment but it can easily pay for it.

Is this mod still being worked on? Haven't seen any activity here in a long time.

 

[Oni Ryuu]

Hi, Glutius Max

The new game won’t be ready for a while. I am quietly working on it in the background but I don’t have the free time I used to.

The update will include several thousand unique units, 18 eras, a new civilopedia, tech tree, Interface and menus. There will be more realistic terrain and overlay graphics and every civ has a unique set of improvements, governments and units.

Each civ is completely different and intentionally unbalanced.

Have you noticed and fixed the problem with civilizations destroying themselves? Like "The rampaging Japanese have destroyed the Japanese". That was happening all the time as I remember. May have been due to civilizations starving out. I remember when a city got down to 1 population many times they starve to death and self-destruct. Or do you mean for that to be an aspect of the game?

 

[Oni Ryuu]

Initially, it was unintended.

It is realistic for civilizations to collapse and create a power vacuum. I started to like that so I kept it as it is. Limited to one or two civs per game is fine but three or more can spoil things.

I should be less common in the next biq but still a feature.
