You really have to disable all mods you may have installed. The City Panel mod was the one that was messing with my game quite a bit. I was having enough issues I reinstalled the game and completely deleted the install folder, after that the update works fine. I just messed with my game too much.

Good idea on both of these. I've never even seen the AI make air units.

Most of the issues with the simple problems that they didn't fix come down to Firaxis being a top-heavy organization. When developer time is closely managed by suits at the top, simple things aren't given the short amount of time that is needed to fix them. The logistical effort of sorting...

That makes sense. From previous discussions, since the districts scale with amount of techs researched, would a viable strategy be holding off on science/culture until you've built several districts? Maybe reducing the scaling by 50% would have a desired effect as well. My fear is that this...

I'm very interested in seeing how this balances the game. My first opinion is that it would make spamming cities even more viable. With the ability to plop 5 cities and each have an encampment + commercial hub, the best strategy for the game is to just constantly pump out cities as early as...

The district production scaling is one issue, I suppose the real mechanic is that one well-placed city is going to out-perform the cities that are placed badly. (Growth wise). I've noticed the AI will aggressively settle closer to you, so it sort of prompts you to do the same.

There is a pretty popular mod on the workshop that extends trade routes from 25 turns to 80, it alleviates part of the issue with trade routes not being able to auto repeat. Any plans to include that with BeBa balance? Would that negatively impact the game at all?

Definitely agreed. I'm pretty much shelving the game until a warmonger fix comes. I was declared wear on twice, and agreed to an allies call to war once, (On the guy who war declared me twice) and instantly everyone but that one ally considered me a bloodthirsty warmonger. Its...

Truth. With stuff like Simcity lately, I would like to be told information that is true. Not misleading at all. Firaxis always does this, so thats not a big concern, but I had to say. I'd like to hear some AI improvements, but seems like lost cause. I'm extremely interested in them expanding...

America still the same overall strategy? (As specified in the guide, mostly) And I've been looking for non-military civs, mainly culture civs. I've never really pursued culture as a victory condition. If anyone could give me some quick overall strategies for the main culture civs, that...

I really agree with this stuff, I would enjoy seeing this in one of the major mods. The bit about "between 2 elections" would really be difficult to do, since pre-UN you can't have elections. I'm tired. Someone tell me if that made sense. It would require some tweaking of diplomacy to make...

Couldn't you just disable max turns...?

Is this compatible with the Echoes of Ages mod? Both of them deal with happiness. Would the more severe one take priority, or how would it all play out?

Single player. I download them through the in game menu, then go to "Installed" and there is nothing there. I press "install mods" and nothing happens.

I downloaded them through the ingame menu, but they are not showing up... Do I have to do something else? And how do I browse for ones I already downloaded from this site?
