Golden Age Flavor trigger

[modmyciv]

Chaps,
I've been play-testing and Golden Age can be triggered just by Flavors you've given a civ: since I've removed all civ traits and just use flavors and it still fires. Traits gave a chance of a Golden Age, but it would appear that using Flavors triggers it every time, or have I just been lucky?
Cheers

A Golden Age can also be Triggered if a Civ Builds many Wonders regardless of what is set to trigger the Golden Age.

I'm pretty sure that if a civ has no traits, that building any great wonder (with a trait?) will trigger a golden age.

I've not known of flavours doing this - despite being grouped with traits on the Civilizations tab, the two don't have any relation to one another as far as I'm aware.

Sengoku is set up with 100% traitless civs. I don't have the editor on hand to check the files, but all wonders there trigger a golden age.

Thanks! Nothing to do with flavors, with no traits the first Wonder you build will fire-up a Golden Age - useful to know as it changes the game a little. The plan I usualy use, of waiting for a gov. that can use the extra coin is much riskier, as you have to hold off building Wonders right at the start. <ponders>

If they're location-specific buildings you can make them small wonders or better still improvements because they will still be tied to their specific locations. Of course, that's a big if.
