Buildings List

[TC01]

So we need a list of buildings, possibly good art (we can always recycle art from existing Civ 4 and sci-fi buildings), and as many unique buildings as possible.

A few notes before listing buildings:

1. Don't propose Wonders here. I'll open a seperate thread for that shortly.
2. If you see a building on the "New Buildings" list that you think is unnecessary, or might fit an existing but unused Civ 4 building, please post it here.
3. If you think a building's name or functionality should be altered, please post that here.
4. This is not the place to post Building Art. Art and art suggestions should be posted in the Graphics Thread (ignore the note about not posting XML graphics stuff there, you can).

Buildings should go into three categories, as listed below.

Civ 4 Buildings: Buildings that have the same name and purpose as from Civ 4

1. Barracks
   • Stormtrooper Barracks: Empire
   • Clone Trooper Barracks: Old Republic
   • Grashal: Yuuzhan Vong
2. Monument
   • Citadel: Sith
3. Courthouse
4. University
5. Hospital
6. Mall
7. Temple: One for all religions

Renamed/Repurposed Buildings: Buildings that have either the same name and a new purpose or the same purpose but a new name from Civ 4

1. Docking Port: Harbor
2. Storehouse: Granary
3. Turret Mainframe: Walls
4. Sewer: Aqueduct
5. Credit Bank Bank
6. Arena: Colosseum
   • Podrace Arena: Hutts
7. Spaceport: Market
8. Prison: Jail
   • Rakatan Mind Trap: Rakatans
9. Sensor Array: Observatory
10. Garbage Compactor: Recycling Center
11. Food Center: Grocer
12. Holographic Library: Library
13. Droid Factory:: Factory
    • Geonosian Factory: Confederacy
14. Plasma Plant: Hydro Plant
15. Durasteel Plant: Coal Plant
16. Hypermatter Plant: Nuclear Plant
17. Mech Depot: Stable

New Buildings: Buildings new, added to the Star Wars Mod with a new purpose and new name

1. Space Station: Gives XP to space units when built
2. Advanced Space Station: Upgraded version of Space Station, more XP
   • Imperial Space Station: Imperial Remnant*
3. Hotel: Adds to credits and culture

*Remnant may be merged with Galactic Empire in the future.

Colossium (same purpose)
Cantina (Renamed for theater)

Temples (available for each religion)
Library (same purpose)
Sewer (Renamed for aquaduct)
Credit Banks (Renamed for bank)
Space Station (new gives XP for space units)
Courts (same purpose)
Arena (Enhances culture, new?)
Podrace arena (replaces Arena for Hutts)
Spaceport (renamed market)
University (same purpose)
Prison (renamed for jail)
Sensor Array (renamed for observetory)
Advanced Spacestation (new, just a upgraded versian of the regular one)
Hospital (same purpose)
Malls (same purpose)
Hotel (new, adds to credits and maybe culture)
Factory (same purpose)
Facillity (new, would act something like a factory)
Garbage Compactor (renamed recycling)
Food Center (renamed grocer)
Grashal (Unique building for Yuuzhan Vong replaces barracks)
Government Building (renamed palace)

Spaceport (renamed market)

and harbor

Garbage Compactor (renamed recycling)

I thought it was a garbage masher

 

[TC01]

I'm going to replace Colosseum with Arena. They are basically the same thing.

I went with "Docking Port" for the Harbor and "Spaceport" for Market.

And I believe it was Garbage Compactor. That sounds better, anyway.

I think we should have a seperate thread to discuss Wonders. However, I personally like "Capital" better then "Government Center".

Also, what is the point of the Facility? I think, unless it has a good flavorful reason and distinct purpose, we should drop it. I've added it for now with a question mark.

Here are some UB ideas

Rakatan Mind Trap - Replaces prison for rakatan
Droid Factory - Relaces factory for confederacy
Holographic Library - Replaces library for New Republic
Imperial Spacestation - advanced spacestation for imperial remnant
Citedal - Monument for sith empire

and maybe facility could replace powerplant in regular civ

 

[civ editor11]

Everyone had Holographic libraries in star wars it should just be a rename of the library, and droid factories were in use by all the civs. the confederacy should have a special version of the droid factory

 

[TC01]

Replaced Factory with Droid Factory, added Geonosian Factory as UB for Confederacy.

Added Holographic Library for all civilizations. You could make a "Jedi Library" UB for the Old Republic, maybe?

There are multiple power plants in regular Civ 4, for instance:

-Hydro Plant
-Coal Plant
-Nuclear Plant

I don't really like the name "Facility", it's too bland. It could mean anything. So I suggest we come up with better replacements for all three power plants. For instance, Plasma Plant? Hypermatter Plant? (For Coal, Nuclear respectively...)

 

[T_KCommanderbly]

ya hypermatter plant is good, plasma plant is good and a durasteel plant is what i would use,

another building idea, is a Mech (or vehicle) depot, gives XP to building mechs/speeders/walkers it would be the replacement of a stable

 

[civ editor11]

What are we going to use as wonders
1 idea the Holonet Replaces internet

 

[TC01]

I think we should discuss wonders in a seperate thread. That's a good idea, though.

found a holographic theater that was just made, could be used for multiple different buildings

 

[TC01]

We've got a good list of buildings... who wants to actually start implementing them?
