154 CIVUP only (_VEM disabled) resource tooltip wrong

[doug141]

when the cursor is placed over an enemy silver resource and alt is pressed, it often says "with fort" and gives high amounts of gold, like 4 and even 6.

in the second picture, we see the tooltip saying the 2 science in the jungle remains even if the jungle is cut down. The worker may have known the truth, since he recommended a trading post.

Thanks for bringing this up, I'll see what I can do.

Edit: How do the yields on the tooltip compare to the yields a worker indicates for the improvement when on the tile?

I found a saved game to answer your question. As you can see from this new screen shot, Thebes' university is giving the jungle tile 2 science. The worker on it is not aware that the farm he is recommending will remove the 2 science, although he knows the farm will remove the forest.

That the worker is recommending a farm now and a trading post on my first playthrough might because the first playthrough he had just built a farm 4 spaces away before getting to the jungle. So farms were less needed.

Thanks for the details!

That information plus my investigation of the code confirms it's a bug with the vanilla GetYieldWithBuild function in the game core only Firaxis has access to. I could manually write an override... but without access to the function itself, I think that might add a noticeable amount of lag to the game. Considering that possible downside it's probably best to just leave it alone.
