Thanks for looking into this!

I have a request. I enjoy playing with Truly Abundant Resources mod, cluttering the map with tons of Stuff. This is obviously incompatible with your map script. Would you please look into including more options for the Resource Quantity drop down, and perhaps better descriptions for what is...

It definitely limits their utility, as you need equal specific progression in both Tech and Civics to use them. Further, it's a break in the normal UU design philosophy. None of the UUs require a strategic resource in unmodded. It does not seem as if your mod changes this across the board, or at...

Ran into an issue using this today. The Indonesian UU Jong, unlocked with the Mercenaries Civic in the Medieval Era, requires Niter. I assume this is inherited from your changes to the Frigate, which the Jong replaces for Indonesia.

This is based on what I've been able to learn from reading these forums and poking at the edges of modding. Without the proper modding tools, modders are unable to add new art without extremely hacky work-arounds. This means that they need to use the icons already available. Further, not all...

After poking at it further, I think the bonus might be tied to your current number of techs / civics, the same way the cost of districts goes up. I beelined Horseback Riding and there was no bonus to Warriors or Slingers. Once I got a few more techs researched (6, including Bronze Working), I...

Whoops, never mind. Social Media does not help Culture victory from repeated completions, only from the Policy Card. Globalization gives 1 gold to Plantations per repetition, bolstering your economy to help pay for everything. Globalization also offers a policy that helps complete the tech tree.

Edit: Not quite accurate The Culture tree has two separate repeatable civics because they each give a bonus that suits one particular victory strategy. Globalization supports Science victory, and makes sense as a manned colony on Mars is and industrial undertaking that requires a globalized...

I've observed two things that can effect this. 1) If you don't lock every individual citizen in place, the game can move them between when you click "next turn" and when the yields are applied. I haven't paid enough attention to this movement to see if it's recalculating in your favor, or simply...

Out of the 6,242 people who left a positive or negative review on Steam, over 80% consider the game worth recommending. SteamSpy shows 800k owners on the 24th, with 500k purchasing on the 21st or later when news of the game from the hardcore had hit the internet. If the AI issues were a sales...

The AI is never going to be great. There is very little incentive for Firaxis to dedicate those resources in that way. They are a game company. Pride of craftsmanship only goes so far. At some point, you have to recognize that spending a million+ dollars (three to five person team for three...

The barbarians seem great about 70% of the time. That other 30%, you have a horse camp right next to you on turn 3. Dealing with Horsemen and Horse Archers when you have Warriors and Slingers is a setback. If you don't have a good defensive position for your capital, it can be a fight for...

I'm having an odd multiplayer issue and wondering if anyone else has encountered it. When using Dynamic Turns, sometimes a person at war is unable to click "next turn." It means we always have to re-host, as runnig out of time doesn't fix it. Any thoughts?

With CBO, Venice (and I assume other Southern cultures) being granted Fishing prevents units from being able to embark before Astronomy in Renaissance.

I have never managed to get an opponent to agree to a defensive pact. They are more likely to agree to voluntary vassalage.
