AG Local Devt Mod for AGYRM

[amateurgamer88]

Hi everyone! This is amateurgamer! With the foundation modmod, AGYRM, mostly complete, I've started on the modular modmods. This will be the first modular modmod and it's inspired by JFD's Cities in Development. There are some similar concepts but the direction will be different. In order to play this modmod, you will need to enable AGYRM.

You might be wondering what this modmod is all about. The picture below will give you the main idea behind the modmod.

Spoiler :

The modmod adds a bunch of new yields. The ones that are currently used are Health, Heresy, Corruption, Crime and Loyalty. Health affects City Growth. Heresy kicks in mid-game where it lowers your Faith generation for more Science. Corruption provides more Gold at the cost of Production and Food. Crime decreases Gold, Production, GAP and Food. Loyalty makes it harder to keep captured Cities. For more details, you can go down to the Details for v0.1 below.

Intelligence and Fervor may or may not be in the modmod in the future. It depends heavily on where the modmod goes and how ambitious I am. At the moment, those two yields don't do anything other than take up space in the UI. If they aren't used, it's possible they get replaced by other yields.

Spoiler Details for v0.1 :

Spoiler New Yield Types :

Health affects Food

Health can be positive (healthy) and negative (unhealthy). Healthy increases city growth by ensuring more Food is added for growth while unhealthy decreases city growth by wasting more Food.

Health will be affected by:

• +1 Health for Oasis
• +1 Health in City with Fresh Water
• Harbor: +1 Health to Fish
• Grocer: +1 Health to Banana
• Modern building for cattle, deer and sheep (Might extend these extra health to some luxury resources too)
• Forest, Jungles, Floodplains and Marshes produce -1 Health
• Some buildings (aqueduct, hospital, etc) will provide health as flat yields or to resources while others (factories, forge, etc) will reduce health as flat yields or to resources
• -2 Health per pop
• Policies can either provide Health to the Capital or a building in all Cities
• Palace provides +4 Health

Each positive health provides +1 Food to the City when growing while each negative health consume an extra 1 Food.
___________________
Loyalty affects a city's willingness to stay with the empire. It can be broken down into the following thresholds and effects:

Loyal: 70%-100% (Cities heal more per turn with scaling to how much loyalty you have above 70)
Neutral: 40%-70%
Disloyal: 10%-40% (City spawns rebel units in tiles adjacent to city. City will take steady HP damage.)
Separatist: 0-10% (City spawns rebel units in tiles adjacent to city. City has a 5% chance to fall into Barbarian hands.)

Sources of Loyalty:
Capital Cities: +40% Loyalty
Founded Cities: +80% Loyalty
Occupied Cities: 0% Loyalty
Occupied Cities with Courthouse: +70% Loyalty
Occupied Cities with Original Owner Alive: -20% Loyalty
Puppet City: +70% Loyalty
Occupied/Puppet Cities: -1%/-0.5% Loyalty per Population
City with Garrison: +10% Loyalty
-0.5% Loyalty per Crime/Heresy/Corruption
___________________

Heresy mainly affects Faith

• +0.2 Heresy per Pop
• Science buildings starting in Enlightenment Era increases Heresy
• Some Beliefs and Religious buildings decreases Heresy
• Palace provides -5 Heresy

Each Heresy produces -3 Faith, +1 Food and +1 Science. 0 or negative Heresy will see no change in Faith, Food and Science.
_____________
Corruption affects Gold

• +0.34 Corruption per Pop
• Policies and certain buildings produce Corruption.
• +3 Corruption per Pop in a Puppet

Each Corruption produces +4 Gold, -1 Production and -1 Food.
_____________
Crime affects everything.

• +1 Crime per Pop
• Policies, buildings, beliefs, etc... reduces/increases Crime
• +3 Crime per Pop in a Puppet
• Palace provides -3 Crime

Each Crime produces -1 Gold, -1 Food, -2 GAP and -1 Production.

Forests providing -1 Health is... weird

In my modmod, I've made it so that Unrest (which could be loosely translated here to Loyalty) depends on local happiness as well, making it more dynamic. I don't know how crime and corruption scales here, so maybe that'd be too much, just an idea.

The -1 health for Forest is meant to balance the -1 health for Jungle. Otherwise, one start is just much better than the other.

I actually don't like linking Loyalty to Distress, Poverty, Illiteracy and Boredom because it's too dynamic to my taste. It's harder to overcome at times (and yield reduction makes it harder to work with) so you either lose game to it or it doesn't have much of an impact. I would rather use things like Crime and Corruption which are more predictable and I can better balance around from the grounds up. If it's too much, I can also tweak some numbers which are within my control and pretty straightforward.

Yeah I know it's for balancing reasons, I'm just saying that it really destroys "lore", "theme", "reality", or however we want to call it. Usually, a possible solution in such cases is that there is a building that offsets the discrepancy, or it remains, but it's balanced otherwise (e.g. jungle tiles are unhealthy but get another buff to compensate).

Yeah, I perfectly understand that.

I hope you know that I'm not trying to "interfere", it's your mod, just trying to give some ideas that you'll may or may not like. I'm really curious where are you going with your project, good luck!

I don't think it destroys the "theme" that much. One perception is that forests are rich ecosystems like jungles so there's an equally high chance for disease passed from animals to humans. Given that deforestation can see the spread of pathogens, those pathogens must have existed somewhere beforehand and make forests good candidate for the "unhealthiness." That's probably the furthest I'll go to justify it. Otherwise, I do emphasize balance more in my mods.

I don't see you as "interfering." I have no issues hearing thoughts and ideas because they can help me better develop my mod if any good ideas come up.
