great.
Also one of the often requested mod components -> you're doing a really valuable job for the community, thanks .

 

[stolenrays]

I appreciate it, thanks.

Leader traits modify the amount of Yields gained. However, the text displayed when hovering over leaders/viewing them is a bit off. It is in the sdk GametextMgr.cpp. I'll try and fix it when I can.

I'm having trouble with this mod. What is the intended ratio of kills to yields? Are all defeated units intended to yield something, or is it a rare event? I have started several games while running this mod and I have never witnessed a gain of food, hammers, or coins. Do barbarian animals count? I have so far only killed barbarian animals, so if they are excluded that would explain my problem.

 

[stolenrays]

I'll check it out, but most units provide a yield and it is not a rare event. Yield type is enumerated in the UnitInfos.xml.

 

[Greed1990]

I deleted the folder, unzipped it again from the source file, and ran it again. It seems to be working now. I even merged it with your multiple research mod! Thanks!

 

[stolenrays]

I'm glad to be of help. A lot of this stuff is trial and error. I even have the Extra Pillage Mod coming out soon. You receive maps of enemy territory sometimes when capturing enemy forts.

I've successfully merged the additions from Test of Time.

However, The text that displays with trait information is a bit messed up. I'm hoping someone may offer to help out. I am decent at programming, but don't know all the syntax for displaying text in C++ yet.

Let me know if you are interested.

 

[stolenrays]

Never mind, fixed it myself.

Does the Yield from Combat also work when you are the defender and defeat an enemy?

The reason I ask is that we've merged it into the B5 Mod but have only seen results when actively attacking. Defending produces nothing.

Shouldnt the option be in Custom Game start, instead of in Options? I always thought Options was for non-gameplay changes.

I'm confused by your post vincentz, was it meant for another thread?

 

[vincentz]

Nope, its for this one. The option to turn Yield from Combat on and off is placed in the Options menu in civ. So its togglable in midgame. Imho something like this should be Start Game option, not Mid Game switchable

Thanks for clarifying. I'm not sure that I have the option on my menu anywhere, will check again later and confirm.
