lua

I have a very simple demonstration mod with three files. One of the files is a ReadMe, and the other two Simple Test Mod.modinfo: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Mod id="12345678-abcd-4321-abcd-1234567890ab" version="1"> <Properties> <Name>Logger Test</Name> <Teaser>Logs a...

I have this Civ6 Scout mod, which is great, but it would be lovely to use Sailor Cat's Watchtower Improvement mod and put down a watchtower if the user click the lookout button. I can place goody huts from lua, but that's it, the others don't work...

I am writing a mod that changes some properties of a plot. Given a plot object, how do I change any properties of it? I'm especially interested in unsubmerging it: local plot = Map.GetPlot(14,16) I can get tons of properties of a plot with that object as well as with TerrainManager. But I...

Hi there! I'm new with civ6 mods, but not with programming (10y+ cpp developer). In civ7 they introduced new scout actions like lookout and search. I wanted to implement that in civ6, but after 6 hours of trying I'm stuck. My goal is to use a button to increase the sight for 1 turn, then reduce...

Hello, I have a huge trouble with my FrontEnd modding. The include() function seem to work as expected but once a game have started, and then I return to the mainmenu, my mainmenu.lua is correctly loaded but now the include() function seem to have no result. Exemple: I have two file...

When restarting a game, leaders are not re-drawn, and if "Civ6 default" is not selected under "CS Selection Usage", neither are city-states. I've had no luck figuring where the culprit is in the YNAMP LUA scripts. I'd like to change this behavior but I have nothing to go on regarding where the...

Intro Hello! This is Community Extension, an open source DLL patch for Civ VI that stretches the limits of what this game is possible of. Have you ever had an idea for a mod, but then quickly realized that what you were trying to do was straight up hardcoded and immediately gave up hope after...

Good day or night everybody! I hope you all be okay. I am writing to you today to ask you if It's possible to detect or debug Random Crashes caused by the .lua format core file "lua51_Win32.dll" in a Mod or Modpack for the respective CvMiniDump.dmp generated by the Crash in cuestion (like the...

Hi everybody! It's Flammie, I'm new and I hope you all be okay. I want to create an "Upgrade Unit Tree" UI mod for the upgrade lines from the Units ingame, very possibly in a Lua format, and like a visible list with their respective icons (kinda the Promotion Tree mod by Whoward69, but with...

Hi, i'm new here. I was wondering if anyone here knows of a way to dynamically ADD map tacks/pins in a LUA script. Or if someone has some reference of how to do this. Say I'm trying to add a map tack to the plot on iX, iY, how one would do this? Is there a method? Thanks in advance :)

So I've successfully implemented a feature where a player gains Science from enemy unit kills equal to their combat strength, and it does indeed update the progress toward the next technology like I want it to. I want the amount of Science gained to display on the screen after the battle...

Hi, I have the following lua code to check the nuclear reactors and give the age of them to the player: include("SupportFunctions.lua"); include("PopupDialog.lua"); function GoToCity(pCity) UI.LookAtCity(pCity:GetOwner(), pCity:GetID()) end function ShowNuclearReactorAgingPopup(pCity...

Hello, I am relatively new to Civ V modding and the Lua programming language, but I am familiar with XML and coding in other languages. For a mod I am making I am adding a Founder Belief that gives science per some number of followers of your religion, but only in your own cities not counting...

Hey guys, I just found this does work - to read or change properties set up by modifiers in XML: Here is the relevant property in XML I wanted to change by script: <GameModifiers> <Row ModifierId="SECRET_SOCIETIES_ENABLE_VAMPIRE_COMBAT_STRENGTH_FROM_PROPERTY"/> </GameModifiers> <Modifiers>...

Civ VI Environment Emulation (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=WildW.vscode-civvi-environment) Perhaps this is an unfortunate time to have made this, it's been over 6 years since Civ VI came out now and its modding scene is certainly past its prime. Nevertheless, I present to...

I am looking for a way to run map generation outside of the game context. Ideally I could have my machine create thousands of maps with different seeds and then rank them by all kinds of metrics. Then when starting a new single-player game, filter through a list of maps made where I could rank...

Hello! In the mod I'm working on I'm having a trouble accomplishing something that seems like it should be fairly straightforward to do, but I'm having some issues with it. In the mod, I have created a new district, let's call it Foo. I have also created a new building, let's call it Bar. I...

I recently tried on UB function that allows extra specialist slot to technology buildings (public school and laboratory 1->2) What I did was creating a copy of original building with extra slot and used lua to replace the original building into specialized version when created in city. It...

I want to make my UB to have function that creates extra one specialist slots to every building with specialist slots when constructed. I guess I will need help from Lua but I haven't learned long enough to figure that out. I tried to refer similar mods but their codes are too complicated for...

Hi I'm working on a mod where a wonder uses the "FreeBuilding" xml to give a lesser version of itself to all cities but this means it also gives it to the city the wonder is built in. I would like to use a lua script to remove the lesser version from the city the wonder is but have no idea how...
