How 2 mod cottage/hamlet/village growth

[griffin71]

Does anybody know how the growth rate of cottages can be changed?

I'd like to do a similar thing to lumbermills, that may turn into turning shops or factories over time.

griffin71, this change can be made in CIV4ImprovementInfos.xml. For each improvement, there the field <UpgradeTime>. This is how many turns it takes for that improvement to grow. Then there is <ImprovementUpgrade> which selects what improvement it grows into.

Thank you, sepamu92!

Yes, thank you. The cottages to towns thing alone is worth the price of admission to Civ4. Definitely using this in Solaria.
