DLL - Various Mod Components

[Lynnes]

Hey whoward,

one of the recent changes to the CP where the code for hovering units was rewritten broke the compatibility for Terrain Crossing, Steampunk Airships and other mods that require these promotions.
Since it seems to a difficult thing to sort out and you are the one who knows best about the promotions and everything related, could you please have a look at the github thread and try to shed some light on the issue? This would be great!

You can find it right here.

what version is for civ V version 1.0.3.18 ?

If you had a legal version of the game it would have update to 1.0.3.279.

Do NOT use my mods with pirated software

Note: Modifiers are applied to base hit points, for example, a GDR unit with both Tough Nuts 1 and Pain Immune 1 promotions will gain ((150 * (100 + 10)/100) + 15) = 180 base hit points and not ((150 + 15) * (100 + 10)/100) = 181.5 (which rounds down to 181) base hit points.

I've now officially converted to Howardianism.

 

[Erocco]

@whoward69 I recently downloaded Religion - Fixed Prophets and updated DLL - Various Mod Components from v 74 to v 76 from your website and I can't pick a religion. Any clue?

 

[whoward69]

If that's the only two mods installed, no - as I play with Fixed Prophets all the time.

If there are other mods installed, no - as you don't say what they are, and even if you did, there could be any number of unknown interactions.

Check the logs (especially lua.log) and see if there are any errors.

 

[Lynnes]

The new HitPoint-Modifiers are a great idea, I'll definitely use them, too!

I'm also playing with Fixed Prophets all the time and never had any issues.

 

[whoward69]

V77 introduces a switch for the XP times 100 code. By default it's off (ie old behaviour), you'll need to turn it on with "Units - XP Times 100" (this was an oversight on my part - too keen to push it out the door!)

 

[whoward69]

...and 1,084,732 new ideas for traits were unlocked.

And another 1,084,732 new ideas for policies and beliefs ...

Traits can be unlocked by policies and beliefs (which means you can effectively use any trait ability/bonus as a policy/belief ability/bonus)

For example, a Belief that doubles yields from Natural Wonders (a la the Spanish Seven Cities of Gold trait)

Hahahahahaha That just makes my internal demons tickle.

I'm about to eat ... that's a mental image I really didn't need

 

[Lynnes]

Are you going to release a new PNM-mod for the bonus health promotions as well?
Since you've already posted the complete code for such a mod..

 

[whoward69]

The code as posted will be released by my "funky-Java-automated-web-site-updater" utility when I next run it (which will be when I've finished testing something else in v77)

 

[Serp]

Is it already possible to add new yields to improvements when finishing a research only for sepcific tiles?

I mean I made the improvement "Suburb".
Since there is nothing to force the improvement to be build next to a city*, I made it that way, that only next to a city it gives very good yields. If not next to a city, the additional yields are none.

But I want to start with e.g 3 yields for suburbs next to city, and increase this up to 6 with some researches. But at the moment this would mean, that a suburb not next to a city would get 3 yields.
I hope you can understand this description

*you could add this too and forcing an improvement to be build outside of territory

 

[bane_]

Since there is nothing to force the improvement to be build next to a city*

But but... there is.

GameEvents.PlayerCanBuild.Add(function(iPlayer, iUnit, iX, iY, iBuild) return true end)

 

[Serp]

But but... there is.GameEvents.PlayerCanBuild.Add(function(iPlayer, iUnit, iX, iY, iBuild) return true end)

ah yes, I only thought of Database entries That does work
But the other request would be nice too

 

[whoward69]

But the other request would be nice too

Which one? If you mean "improvements can only be constructed outside own lands" use a combination of "OutsideLands" in the database and the event

 

[Serp]

Which one? If you mean "improvements can only be constructed outside own lands" use a combination of "OutsideLands" in the database and the event

thx.

I meant increasing yields only for specific tiles. So assuming I want suburbs also to be build further away from cities, but only if it is next to a city (or on a mountain/next to river and so on), a research will increase the yields.

 

[whoward69]

Have two improvements, one with the higher yields but un-buildable. Use the PlotBuilt event (or whatever it's called) and when a suburb is built next to a city, swap it for the one with the higher yield.

The problem with adding columns to the database tables is that they are totally specific - they do X and only X, if another modder wants to do Y you have to add another column. The beauty of events is that they are generic. I can implement them such that not only are X and Y both possible, but also A, B and C tomorrow and L, M, N and O the week after (which we haven't even thought of yet!)
