[SDK] Improvement on improvement

[keldath]

hi all,

im trying to code an addition to a mod named super forts.

my goal, is to make it so, that upon building a fort - it will not destroy the existing improvement.

any ideas to what code part i need to goo?

Forts (vanilla anyway) has IMPROVEMENT_FORT. CvPlot is designed to only have one improvement. Being able to have forts and another improvement seems like a major task. Either super forts use some non-improvement forts or I would recommend against trying to implement this due to not being worth the effort.

will abandon this .

cheers!

What you could do is boost the plot’s yield by the amount that the player is currently getting for it from the original improvement, when your fort is built and then reset the plot’s yields to the default values for that terrain when a fort is removed.

You won’t get any subsequent tech boosts that the original improvement would have given but it would be a more productive fort.

Alternatively, create an xml Fort for each other improvement type of relevance, e.g. IMPROVEMENT_FORT_FARM. Each of these can only be built on the prerequisite improvement and has all the benefits of a Fort and that improvement. I’d set bGraphical to 1 for these and just explain with text in the standard fort pedia entry.
