New terrain features

LunarMongoose author of the Mongoose Mod has done some new work with Burnt forest and animations. He has also done other terrain features too. Might want to check it out if you have not already. He cites C2C as good place to nip ideas. Maybe a place/modder to reciprocate with? http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=12111854&postcount=9

Maybe we can ask him if we can join forces, even if just a little. I'm sure he could be encouraged a little if the right people ask him. All we need to do is share some ongoing conversation. Mutual idea development benefits everyone, and gets us on the same page. I'm sure we'll agree on more than we disagree. All for the bettering of CIV ideas. Let's make progress together. :)
 
The beauty of C2C is if it doesn't work, or isn't the best, we at least get it working in some agreed upon fashion, and we can come back to improve it. I say working version trumps perfect or completely agree upon version. That will take longer.
For the sake of unity and progress, let's get ideas working, then perfected.
The goal is to keep things improving regularly, and revisit things that aren't perfect when the solutions have had enough ongoing discussions and productive debates to work them out. We all want things here to keep getting better and better. Things progress slowly when we let them get bogged down. Let's keep it moving and find a way to get to agreement on better solutions or at least the best bet right now.

I'm excited to see everyone get together and getting things moving even better.

[offtopic] I have been talking to other main modders in CFC and they are in RL real busy, but i asked them even if they could do something ONCE a week would be nice, positive responses so far, but not too soon in the future, School stuff/RL.


EDIT: DH, see attached Ancient Forest question, thx.
 
Hmm lots of new terrains by orlanth. Perhaps some could be useful.

[GRAPHICS] Infinite Terrain Pack

Those look like Civ4 Col terrains to me. Are graphics interchangable between the two or not?

Also, the person to ask about this would be primem0ver, we don't want to be changing terrain graphics now when he may be making new ones and/or replacing terrains entirely.
 
I have been thinking about them actually. Here are my ideas ...

Tarpit
- Remove Impassable
- Change to Movement Cost -3 (It would be cool if we had an event where your unit get stuck in the Tarpit)
- Defenders get -50% Strength
- Can have Tar Collector (Req Mining)
- Can have Dig Site on it like Fossils
- Can have Well on it like Oil or Natural Gas
- Can have Nature Persevere

Caves
- Defenders get +50% Strength

Crater (Earth)
- Remove Impassable
- Change to Movement Cost -2
- Defenders get +50% Strength
- Can have Nature Persevere

Crater (Small) (Moon)
- Remove Impassable
- Change to Movement Cost 0

Crater (Medium) (Moon)
- Remove Impassable
- Change to Movement Cost -1
- Defenders get +25% Strength

Crater (Large) (Moon)
- Remove Impassable
- Change to Movement Cost -2
- Defenders get +50% Strength

Mostly done, I could not find the Tar Collector improvement.

The terraform stuff from the same post has not been done - do the bulldozer and Terraformer exist yet?

I may have the moon movements wrong for some reason 1=0 in that tag:confused:.
 
When I asked about parrots you said no!:mischief: But we were talking more about feathers then I suppose.

I did? I thought it was you who said no! :lol:

Well feathers would be a product of it. It would give parrots but then like how the Elephant Herd and Elephant Hunters camp provides Ivory and Carcass the Parrot Aviary would provide Feathers. And possibly whatever Parrot Flock building you have.

Also the Macaw unit should sometimes make the resource on the map like how Bison can make bison resources sometimes.

If I ever make more types of parrots they should as well.

Thanks! :goodjob:
