My "Units" mods worked perfectly on Civilization V. However, my "HandicapInfos" mods did not work correctly. In Civilization V game, I was able to enable mods and started the game and found my units mod worked correctly but my HandicapInfos mod has no effect at all.

How can I make my HandicapInfos mod work with Civilization V game?

Thank you so much!
 
I was able to get my HandicapInfos mod to work! :)
I had to rewrite entire code. I cannot use StartingDefenseUnits, StartingWorkerUnits and StartingExplorerUnits as they are not exist in base databases. If I use these names, my HandicapInfos mod will be rendered null and void and no effect will occur. I had to remove names to make my mod work. How can I add StartingDefenseUnits, StartingWorkerUnits and StartingExplorerUnits?

Enable logging and check the database.log file ... it's "Explore" not "Explorer"

Code: 
<StartingExplore[B][COLOR="Red"]r[/COLOR][/B]Units>1</StartingExplore[B][COLOR="red"]r[/COLOR][/B]Units>
 
Thanks, whoward69!

I was able to fix a bug with my HandicapInfos mod! I can now use StartingDefenseUnits, StartingWorkerUnits and StartingExploreUnits. I tested my mod and my mod worked perfectly!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
