VP Congress: Session 4, Proposal 7
Proposal: Make Aqueduct and Harappan Reservoir require Granary in the city to be built.
Rationale: Both buildings has the same stacking FoodKept ability, so why not just make Aqueduct requires Granary? Both are also Growth-related buildings so they shouldn't be separated.

INSERT INTO Building_ClassesNeededInCity (BuildingType, BuildingClassType)
SELECT Type, 'BUILDINGCLASS_GRANARY' FROM Buildings
WHERE BuildingClass = 'BUILDINGCLASS_AQUEDUCT';

Moderator Action: Added a clarifying note. - Recursive

Rarely going to matter but I guess the downside is you build a good lake city and cant rush it.
The upside is greater consistency, only?
Dunno if I'd vote for this.

 

[N.Core]

Sponsored, because I like consistency among buildings.

I don't agree, same reason it's almost never a good idea to build a granary instead of a monument at the start, it's a pretty situational building.

Monument is a go-to building most of the time, and Granary unlocks later than Monument.
Is a no-brainer if you skip Granary and skip its early instant Food bonus. Growth is the most important thing in early games, you even need it to expand.

Is this proposal also to make the Harrappan Reservoir require granary, or is that UB’s lack of build requirement set to become a unique attribute?

Yes?
Also, if you look into the code example that I put on the OP, I put the Aqueduct building class there. This means all Aqueduct replacements are also affected.

 

[pineappledan]

Okay. You should explicitly say that is all.
