LUA to Make Tile Improvement Modify Yields of Adjacent Tiles/Improvments

[crimsontrojan]

[*] Short of it: Can someone help me create a script that detects an improvement and then improves the yield of adjacent farms (i.e., a different improvement)?

[*] Best exemplar I can find: http://forums.civfanatics.com/archive/index.php/t-408262.html

So, I'm thinking you add an xml table that includes:

1. "augmenting" improvement
2. "augmented" improvement
3. yield Type
4. yield Amount

And then have the Lua hook into the table... this is where I get lost.

Ultimate goal is to have Fiefdoms that make the local farmers work harder and cough up gold...

You can detect when an improvement completes with the following event:

GameEvents.BuildFinished(playerID, iX, iY, eImprovement)

I don't know what the next steps you would need to do would be because I'm not sure what effect you're trying to implement.

GameEvents.BuildFinished(playerID, iX, iY, eImprovement)

I don't think this would work because I want the yields for adjacent farms to be increased as long as the Fiefdom (the new modded improvement) is there, potentially forever; triggering on creation won't handle that, right?

Sorry I was unclear.

I want an effect that is similar to a Moai, except instead of adding culture when adjacent to other Moais, the Fiefdom will improve the gold and food yields from adjacent farms.

Starting from the link I posted:

-- define extra yields for farms, this part is shaky
local ImprovementIDsToYieldTable = {}

for pImprovementYieldChange in GameInfo.Improvement_YieldChange() do
ImprovementIDsToYieldTable[GameInfo.Improvements[pImprovementYieldChange.ImprovementType].ID] = pImprovementYieldChange.Yield
end

-- loop through all plots, check for applicable improvements, and change them
for iPlot = 0, Map.GetNumPlots() - 1 do
local pPlot = Map.GetPlotByIndex(iPlot)

local impType = pPlot:GetImprovementType()

if ImprovementIDsToYieldTable[impType] ~= nil then

-- How do I detect the farms and then add yields to them?
