Pirate Cove?

[Rising Sun]

Right now im playing the Lanun "Dagon-custom" so i noticed there a pirate cove button on the settlers so i couldnt figured out where to make em. The Pedia say nothing.

This is from the improvements thread:

The Pirate Cove is only available to civs that start with the seafaring tech (the Lanun). Allows workers to create a cove on a coast tile (owned by the player or unowned) that can be entered by ships. While in the cove the ships gain a defensive bonus, increased heal and a slightly better site range. If a cove is in an owned tile it provides a small amount of gold. A cove can't be built within 3 tiles of another cove.

I went ahead and added it to the pedia too.

What do you mean by Dagon-custom?

The pirate coves are explained in the Improvements thread.

Edit: Drat!

I named my Civ "Dagon" like that movie heh. Im using Hannah's trait though it seem pretty well balance.

That should be a "sight range".

I can't build pirate coves.
Looking through the XML files, while it's mentioned in ImprovementInfos, there is no worker order in BuildInfos, nor any unit in UnitInfos that has that worker order.

Oh btw, with a coast tile, do you mean a sea tile or a land tile? Have checked both.

 

[Silverkiss]

There is a land type named "Coast". Its all the sea that touches a land square.

 

[Maniac]

I know. That's why I tried putting a worker on a boat to see if I could build a cove, but no result.
(A worker on a boat can build a road though...)

LOL The Drown can walk double as fast on roaded waters.

Pirate coves were really really broke. I dont know how they got through testing. One of the problems with 21 civs, even if the testers play a dozen games, half the civs will still be untested.

I spent all last night on them, and almost through them out entirely. But I slept on it and got them fixed this morning so they will be in and working correctly in 0.14.

Thanks nice to hear!

 

[Nikis-Knight]

yeah, I never built any, but I really like the concept

Now there'll be more use for those one tile islands that fall within a city radius!

Or outside of a city radius, a plot doesnt have to be inside your cultural borders to be made into a cove.
