This is a collection of templates for defining new diplomacy text for leaders in Civilization V. New diplomacy text is something I always like to see in modded civs, so I hope by releasing templates I can make the process easier for some people.
What's included in the templates:
There are templates for every response for the vanilla game, as well as the responses introduced with the Community Patch/Vox Populi and Civ 4 Diplomacy features. It includes two parts for each - the SQL/XML for the entries in the Diplomacy_Responses table, and the XML for the actual lines. Each file includes comments as to how to use them, as well as a short description of what each response is actually used for.
Also included for all the templates is an example using the generic lines, which you can use to get a further feel for what should be in each response.
How to use:
Copy the templates you need into your ModBuddy project. All of the templates use "LEADER_LEADERNAME" as a placeholder, so replace that with your leader's type, then you should be good to go - all you need to do is start writing your own lines. Any lines you don't want to use, you can delete, as the game will fallback to the generic lines in that case.
Each response in the game text XML is given one entry, though you can add more by adding a numbered suffix. For example, to add another first greeting, add a second entry with the tag "TXT_KEY_LEADER_LEADERNAME_FIRSTGREETING_2".
Please refer to the included readme for more details.
(I know it's not too long to the release of Civ VI, but I know people are still going to be modding CiV so this might come in useful!)
