When I try to to use the latter 3 HDI civics, I get tons of unhappiness & unhealthiness from the city plaza. What gives?! The civics page states that it decreases unhappiness & unhealthiness by 25 but instead it increases it by 25?! Is it supposed to be some sort of a game balancer or just a major oversight?

Thank you ANDL33, mice!

I can simply call it a balancer, but I would rather than say that it is one of the important ideas of BT3. (like cottage in civ4)

With better education and development of mass media, the quality of populace is increase. They are more creative, more freedom to work, to migrate, to speak in the public, and so on.

The price of freedom is not free, it has to use health/happiness to exchange the quality of populace. I thought a easy solution for AI player and human player to understand (and manpulate) the core idea. (however it is indeed somewhat a contradiction with definition of HDI, but the spirit of civic:HDI is not different from the definition)

In the contrast, populism, cult of personality, and even ignorance, they are even struggle in happiness, and do not have extra happiness/health to exchange their quality of populace.



It is not too hard to achieve "civic education" or "press freedom"
1. reduce population. too much population is a pressure for environment and society
2. grab more resource, make your people more happy and healthy
3. better technology to increase health/happiness
4. civic choose wisely


Thank you ANDL33, mice! Hope this design sounds reasonable and fun!

Fuch , I see where you're going with the HDI now. However, -15 happy for 50% science boost ? That's hard.

I think I can make that 50% science with the extra 15 citizens.

Looking at the civic screen I think my next game I will go for Totaliarianism and the communism one, then a big population and no HDI civics.

That's "old" civ thinking. Maybe I can try a different approach leveraging the science boosts with small population, but I will attempt it on a lower setting than usual , maybe Noble.

It is not that hard to adopt "Civic Education" or even "Press freedom"
(However I will decrease the difficulty in the next patch!)


tips: trade every resources, focus on biomedicine line, increase culture rate to increase happiness, use no factory, use workshop, buy what you want to build, and try to control your population around 15~20


Thank you for you advise mice!

Hey fuch , I started a game as Taiwan in the renaissance era. Good so far.

Looking forward to that late tech tree and all it's goodies.

Edit . I'm getting a lo of CTDs.

It might be the civic Cult of personality. I switch to it on this move or next. Here is the save.

Hello mice,
did you play BT3 with Mylon's Large City Mod? and which BT3 version did you play?
If not, and I have to rethink about what is going on here.

I will go to check it again when I go home.

Thanks a lot!

[Nicky21]

could you please offer an alternative download site (rapidshare is a good one)?

I've been trying to get your mod for the last 3 days and still no luck...

 

[fuch1141]

sorry everyone:

I am quite busy these days, and now I am working on some balance/bug problem , too.

Fortunately the link is back, and I will find another download link when next patch released.


thank you!

hey Spellthief,

I guess you play your game in Deutsch. Better Tomorrow only supports English for now, sorry for your inconvenience.

hi,

hope this one is the right one...

i've got problem with Better Tomorrow (and another mod either, but since the problem looks the same i'll just ask for this one). I can start up the mod but I can't see any text! i mean, i can see the graphics (menu, world, buttons) but that's all, no text, no info about the terrain, units, cities panel and so...
It seems to me as if the mod does load his own texts (or at least a part of them) but does not the civ 4 BTS default's ones.

Can please please please someone help me???

cheers and thanks from ItalY

yuk i've just read the IMMEDIATLY previous post...problem fixed up choosing english as language...

Really, really sorry for my dumbness!
