I'm trying to create a civilization based on forest yields and and focusing on improved tile yields. I'm currently planning on a unique improvement and an unique unit. However, I'm very new to modding so some help would be appreciated!
For the unique improvement I've modified the lumber mill to provide culture and gold. All of the improvement implementation is in place and achievable through XML.
For the unique unit I am considering an improvement chop mechanic on a worker. Since I'm already using lumber mills I was thinking of improving chops outside of the civilization territory or possibly inside of other civs, albeit with reduced yields.
For the trait I am considering a few options. The first is to improve the Golden Age yields from improved resources or provide increased strategic resources. The other option is providing combat strength to units on resource tiles.
It seems like the unit and trait would require modifications in Lua, but I'm not exactly sure where to start. I have a fair amount of coding experience, but don't know what functions to use.
From my understanding for the chop mechanic I would need:
I'd appreciate any help on how to implement this, or recommendations to the concept!

- Allow worker to enter other territories
- Allow worker to remove forest feature in other territories
- Assign production yield to city
