[MOD] The Atoll Mod

[Optimizer]

Atoll Mod for Civilization 4 version 1.52

Version number: 1.00
Release date: February 7, 2006

Made by Optimizer

DESCRIPTION

This mod adds a new terrain feature called "Atoll".

The Atoll - illustrated by the Oasis graphics - appears in Coastal and Ocean squares. It adds 1 food and 1 production. It also gives +25% defense.

 

[Drakonik]

Interesting idea. Does the atoll convey any particular benefits?

 

[[to_xp]Gekko]

what I'm thinking is that combining this with the Volcano Eruption feature of the Random Events mod would be awesome - that's what an atoll is after all

 

[GeoModder]

Mmm, I would think that an atoll also could have some commerce benefit. Tourists scuba-diving the reefs anyone? (at least for the modern age then)

 

[Drakonik]

That would work. Would it be implemented as easily?

 

[Thalassicus]

+2 commerce would likely be better than hammers -- you've got trade oppertunities from the resources around the island (fish, pearls, oysters, etc).

 

[Optimizer]

I prefer a food and production bonus because of game balance. Coastal cities usually have very little production.

 

[A Random Person]

Can you post a screenshot?

 

[Scorpi]

Doesn't this belong in the mod component forum?

 

[darkedone02]

i agree, this does not sound like a mod itself, it more like a componect.
If it's a mod, they should of display something unique then the samn, plus you need to add units, Resources, Technology and all sort of things.

 

[ollj]

The Manhattan Project (or every ICBM) should have half production cost with a nearby atoll

seriously. +1 hammer with fission.

I like the idea here but i was wondering if it would be possible to put a comment/s next to the changes to identify them for incorporation into other mods?
