Spoiler UA details :

Original UA: Gain Gold when settling; amount is greater the further from your Capital. Cities on other continents/Colonies contribute 10% of their Science and Production to your Capital.

UA was changed because I liked the idea of a trade route UA, as it feels fitting for how the British Empire and colonialism worked in general. The Gold internal trade routes simulate trading within the empire and captive markets.

The yields from the internal trade routes are calculated normally, with an additional bonus yields as if trading with an allied city state bonus. Exception is no bonus from cultural influence (can't influence yourself!)

Spoiler Steam Mill details :

Same as the Steam Mill when it was removed from VP, except that you get 10% of Great Engineer progress when completing buildings rather than gold to trade routes.

Spoiler First Rate details :

Same as Ships of the Line.

Spoiler Grand Carrack details :

Being able to cross oceans earlier (or being available earlier) should allow England to get a strong navy a bit earlier, and hence benefit from the higher XP from Quick Learner. The Indomitable promotion will help it be much harder to kill than normal ranged naval units.

Spoiler More UC details :

Redcoat (UU) (replaces Fusilier)

• Ignores Terrain Cost.
• Can move through foreign lands without Open Borders.

White Tower (UW) (replaces Hermitage)

Unchanged.

Spoiler Mod compatibility details :

Community events are similar to England.
Decision: Assume Control of the East India Company

• Now applies to Courthouses as well.

Decision: Institute Westminster Parliament

• Cost now 200 Gold, scaling with era.
• Free Social Policy replaced with -5% Social Policy cost.
• Now requires 2 Magistrates.

What is the ideal mod load order for your custom civs with 4uc? I can't for the life of me figure out a load order that actually works with 4 uc

 

Hmm, is it not working? Civ 5 should be able to handle that.

This is Fifthcolumn, the guy with the 4UC issue. I double checked and it doesn't look as if any of the mods I use should be conflicting. If you could take a second look and tell me what the problem may be, I would be appreciative.

 

@Fifthcolumn7798 You need to send the file after you activated your mods, and before returning to the main menu (you can quit civ 5 directly though, just don't go back to the mod selection menu).

 

You mean after it configures and before I start a game? If I send it with the game still open does that work or do I need to close it?

Side note: some mod civs like Phillip II are receiving their 4UC, but they appear to prevent the base game civ they are derived from from getting their 4UC.

This file is before I quit but after mods are loaded.

 

You are not using the correct 4UC mod. You need to be using the VP one. Also, I don't think Philip II is compatible with VP because the Tercio is buildable by all civs in VP.

 

Thank you! It's perfect now!

 

Kinda forgot I had this sitting in my hard drive. I've been procrastinating.

I think the internal trade routes don't work correctly for corporations, or any modifiers to international trade routes (such as policies). This makes it really difficult to justify using internal routes over international ones... particularly later in the game.
