IIRC calculateSumScore adds up all of the values in lAttitudes that meet the given absolute value threshold, default being 1.

Sorry, not sure I understood. First line -- adding all the +/- 1 attitude? Second line adding +/- 2 attitudes, and then for +/- 3? Meaning if someone is -5 against me -- he will not be counted in attitude score determination? My main problem is the second argument of Sumscore function... If it represents a threshold -- in which way mathematically does it work?

The first line sums all values >= 1, the second line >= 2, and the third 3
So if you have a -5 it's absolute value is 5, which is >= 1, 2 and 3, meaning it's added on all 3 lines. I'm not sure how Python handles uneven integer division so let's assume for the sake of this example 5 / 2 = 2, we'd get -2 + -2 + -5 = -9.

Where is the wonder limit stored? I want to try some fun one-city challenges and I'd like to disable the wonder limit for OCCs.

It is in CvCity.cpp, at CvCity::isWorldWondersMaxed().
However, if you enable the OCC option it should already remove the limit for human players. You can enable that option in the WB. The option only effects the human player, so it doesn't matter that it is enabled during autoplay. It is not worth making changes so it is enabled from loading the scenario, as that has no effect.
EDIT:
Ignore the wonder limit indicator (next to the city name in the cityscreen) if you do this. It still displays the original limit, but you can still build new wonders.

Is there any way to trigger a civ rebirth through the python console? For example, the Egyptian one in the middle ages. Thanks in advance

As someone who learned coding with C++ I have always had a deep suspicion for Python, so I'd like to ask for confirmation, is this code:
really 100% certainly just a shorter more elegant but otherwise functionally identical version of this:
?
Code:
if iPlayer == iPolynesia or iVikings or iIndonesia or iNetherlands:really 100% certainly just a shorter more elegant but otherwise functionally identical version of this:
Code:
if iPlayer == iPolynesia or if iPlayer == iVikings or if iPlayer == iIndonesia or if iPlayer == iNetherlands:?

I think what you're looking for is
Code:
if iPlayer in [iNetherlands, iIndonesia, iVikings, iPolynesia]:The second is not valid Python at all, but I suppose you mean:
If so the shorthand equivalent is:
Your first example will always evaluate to true. Consider that iVikings etc. are integer values. In Python, an integer always evaluates to true unless it is zero. So the "or iVikings" parts already make the statement true.

if iPlayer == iPolynesia or iPlayer == iVikings ...

Code:
data.iSeed % 4What does that mean exactly? What does that sinister 4 plan to do with the percentage sign to that pure unsuspecting random seed?

The % sign is the modulo operator in python.

In Python (and many other languages), % is the modulo operator. In other words, x % y computes the remainder of dividing x / y as integers.
This is useful when you want to quickly have a random set of y different cases. For example, when you compute x % 4, the results are in the range [0, 1, 2, 3]. So if you want something to happen in 25% of all games, seed % 4 == 0 is one way to do it. Likewise, seed % 4 == 1 gives you another case with 25% probability that never occurs at the same time as the previous thing.
Why is all of this derived from the same seed instead of rolling a random number each time? Multiple reasons: sometimes you want multiple mutually exclusive outcomes, sometimes you need consistency for those cases at multiple points in time (so you don't have to store another randomly generated number), and random number generation is more computationally expensive.

You could take a look at the religion advisor. The religion list is horizontally scrollable. I assume you want to make that part of the advisor scrollable.
