Need help with Sevopedia

[OrionVeteran]

I have successfully added the "Multi-Building Unit Requirement" SDK mod by TheLopez. I added two prerequisite buildings to an early unit for test purposes. The Slinger unit in this test requires a Barracks and a Monument. The test was successful, as I could not produce the Slinger unit until I had a Barracks and a Monument in my city. So far so good.

When I checked the Sevopedia it failed to show the graphics for the two prerequisite buildings in the "Requires" section and it failed to list them in the "Special Abilities" section. The attachment shows how it currently appears next to how I want it to appear. Does anyone know how to make the necessary changes to make to prerequisite buildings appear on the Sevopedia screen?

You'd need to modify the relevant Python file in the Sevopedia to make it aware of the additional prerequisite tag. That would be the file named SevoPediaUnit.py. Look at the placeRequires function - the last thing it does is check for a prereq building.

Here is the code for the function, but I'm not sure where it fails.

This turned out to be a simple fix. All I had to do is paste the respective code in red above from the CvPediaUnit.py file into the SevoPediaUnit.py file. It now works!

Thank you God-Emperor!
