nat. wonders for easier late expansions

[lefuet]

one of the smallest changes with the biggest impact on my playing fun was:

changing all national wonders to give the building (that was required in every city) for free in all (also future!) cities really made (even late) expanding much more fun

before this change building settlers quickly became useless as new cities had an ever harder time to get productive

It would be nice if you try to share that mod for others to see (especially the lurkers )

I don't know how to make a mod. I'm using linux and have no mod tools.

if you can show me how to build one without mod tools I'd love to.

Otherwise you have to manually insert "<FreeBuilding>BUILDINGCLASS_NAMEOFBUILDING</FreeBuilding>" in the building table for each national wonder.
(e.g. "<FreeBuilding>BUILDINGCLASS_LIBRARY</FreeBuilding>"
for the NATIONAL_COLLEGE in ..../dlc/expansion2/gameplay/xml/buildings/civ5buildings.xml

UPDATE Buildings
SET FreeBuilding = 'BUILDINGCLASS_LIBRARY'
WHERE Type = 'BUILDING_NATIONAL_COLLEGE';

Stick this in any mod with an SQL file and it'll work.
