New civics

[AdelineJ]

Hello!
1. To create a new civics, must I just modify CIV4CivicInfos?
2. To create a new civics category, must I just modify CIV4CivicInfos? How do I do for presentation? Python?
3. Do you know if there is a small mod with only civics?
Thanks

This mod component adds 30 civics in multiple categories. It also revamps the civics screen to be able to show a lot more categories.

 

[AdelineJ]

Am I obliged to do python to create a civic? to change the laying?

 

[The_J]

No, you don't have to change anything in Python to add/create/change civics, but the screen will look ugly.
You can either
- change the screen, which is only changing a few numbers
- use another civics screen, like the one in the mod component God-Emperor linked.

Thanks. How do I do to change the size of comments (left column)? The lines mix...

 

[The_J]

Not totally sure, but...
In CvCivicsScreen.py, change (relatively on the top):

self.TEXT_MARGIN = 15

to something smaller, to e.g. 13, that should be enough.

 

[AdelineJ]

I try it but no effect... Must I modify an other fileas pytoncallback?

 

[The_J]

Nonono, only that file.
maybe the rest is also necessary...I'm not sure, but my CvCivicsScreen has as vaules (relatively on the top):

		self.HEADINGS_BOTTOM = 300
		self.HELP_TOP = 370
		self.HELP_BOTTOM = 630
		self.TEXT_MARGIN = 13

instead of

		self.HEADINGS_BOTTOM = 280
		self.HELP_TOP = 350
		self.HELP_BOTTOM = 610
		self.TEXT_MARGIN = 15

I'm not totally sure what these do anymore (I have sure a suspicion), but I'd try to change it and hope that it works.

I try to copy the file of RoM-A New Dawn but I want to play, there are not bars in the top and bottom...

Presumably the RoMaND file has been modded to fit some additional RoM settings and such. Try using the one provided in the Civics Mod: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=402709
It works for me.

 

[AdelineJ]

Thanks. I have it but I think the size of comments (left column) is too high... I try to modify CvCivicsScreen.py but no result...

 

[The_J]

I try to copy the file of RoM-A New Dawn but I want to play, there are not bars in the top and bottom...

Could you attach the .py file please?

 

[AdelineJ]

I try too with the file of C2C but same result...This is the file of C2C put in Beyond the Sword\Mods\Tutoriel\Assets\Python\Screens

 

[The_J]

Uh, a BUG file .
Changing self.TEXT_MARGIN = 11 to something lower should still work though .

I'd advise you to ask in the BUG subforum for further assistance.

 

[AdelineJ]

What is adress of this subforum?
I don't understand : why it works with C2C and not only?

 

[The_J]

The BUG subforum is here.

Why it works there...probably they made some other customizations, which are placed elsewhere .

 

[AdelineJ]

Oupss... I posted It here : http://forums.civfanatics.com/forumdisplay.php?f=170

 

[The_J]

I moved it to the right section now .

I'm almost finished the civics. I miss some details:

1. <bNoUnhealthyPopulation> means no caused by population?
2. <iExpInBorder> What does it means?
3. <bBuildingOnlyHealthy> means no caused by buildings?
4. <iStateReligionUnitProductionModifier> is likes <iStateReligionBuildingProductionModifier> but one for units and one for buildings?
5. <Hurry/> I don't understand what Does it signified and what can we write : , , , , , , or .

I'm almost finished the civics. I miss some details:

1. <bNoUnhealthyPopulation> means no caused by population?

Not no from popultion, no from population. Normally you get 1 per point of population.

2. <iExpInBorder> What does it means?

I think you mean iExpInBorderModifier. It is a percentage modifier for the amount of experience a unit gains from a combat within your borders. If you set it to 50, each time one of your units gets XP in your borders it should get 50% more (rounded down, so it would often have no actual effect).

3. <bBuildingOnlyHealthy> means no caused by buildings?

Again, it is , not . If a building gives health, it still would give it. But if a building gives unhealthiness it no longer does if you are using a civic with this set.

4. <iStateReligionUnitProductionModifier> is likes <iStateReligionBuildingProductionModifier> but one for units and one for buildings?

Yes.

5. <Hurry/> I don't understand what Does it signified and what can we write : , , , , , , or .

It is either HURRY_POPULATION (you can rush via sacrificing population, like the Slavery civic) or HURRY_GOLD (you can rush with money).
