Platyping's Python

[The_J]

mmhh...nice idea. Reflects RL pretty good I'd say.

 

[AIAndy]

Now you just need to add a Patent Troll building that requires someone to have built Patent and gives you 2% fees when anyone researches any technology but also gives you a relationship penalty.

Pyramid of the Magician

Spoiler :

After Great Prophet, now we enhance Great Engineers

Artwork by Hrochland

Countdown to 200: 3

Megapack and Gigapack:
Rewrote BuildingCost and UnitCost callbacks so that wonders using those are compatible with each other.
=> Discount from wonders such as Apadana Palace and Great Mosque of Djenne will now stack with each other to give higher discount.
Standalones unaffected

Megapack and Gigapack updated

 

[The_J]

Nice idea...as usual .
Not sure how big the effect is , 10% doesn't sound that much.

 

[platyping]

Geez, raise it to 20% later
By the way, is there any info page or online manual for gods and kings so that I know what the new wonders do
I know there is a downloadable manual in the forum but the english file is corrupted

 

[The_J]

I downloaded the manual via the link in the forum, so the problem has to be with your download .

Else see here.

Thanks

Great Firewall

Spoiler :

Not sure why it is a great wonder, sounds more like a project since it is obviously intangible...

Anyway, cant be bothered to find a artwork for it, so... project simpler

Only applied to cities where the team owns majority of the culture, so spies can still disrupt newly conquered cities.
Uses cannotMove callback

Countdown to 200: 2

 

[The_J]

The performance . But nice idea for sure .

Borgund Stave Church

Spoiler :

Something which has irritated me in BTS for a long time...
The inability to build missionaries if you failed to build monasteries before they obsolete, without using the civics

National Wonder
You can still build them, which allows you to build missionaries.
Also, the culture output is still there, only the science is gone.

Actually I should have chosen a wonder that existed after monasteries obsolete, but since there are so many stave churches, this serves well as a NW since the benefits do not look fantastic enough to be a WW.

Added a bunch of your projects to my mod, and came across the problem where all the original projects randomly require the new projects. I know you had that before, wondering how you fixed that

 

[platyping]

It means there are codes in the pedia screen refering to projects that do not exist

 

[dacubz145]

Thats not it since even if i delete the whole pedia project file the problem still exists

 

[platyping]

unless u referring to the problem due to the nuke projects requiring mahattan.
Never managed to solve that in modular form so I remove it and use python callbacks instead to put in the mahattan requirement.
Mahattan XML requirement does not work in modular form.
To use mahattan XML requirement, you have to add the nuke projects manually into the mods directly.

As the saying goes, you should have tested after adding each one and try, now you tell me you added so many without testing, I cannot pinpoint the problem either.

 

[dacubz145]

I will just place them all in the projects folder. I did test them all I just forgot about the pedia thing untill the end

3rd of the buffed GP series
Castra Praetoria

Spoiler :

Great General one is simple enough to think what to do with it
Random promotion is only chosen from what the unit can gain.
Eg:
An archer can get combat 1, drill 1 or city garrison 1 but not combat 4 or 5 straight away.
Of course, a warrior with aggressive traits can get combat 2 from this.

Edits:
The Duomo
Buffed to 20% Culture Boost

Pyramid of the Magician
Buffed to 20% Building Cost Discount

Lanzon
Added a None check for city owner

Gigapack
Added a Discount cap of 50% for BuildingCost, so that you don't end up with a cathedral cheaper than a temple...

Gigapack updated

200 Done (or 173 excluding GIR and tsentom1 modified ones)

 

[The_J]

200 Done

congrats .

Great Merchant wonder.
Left Scientist, Artist and Spy to go

[j_mie6]

nice at the crastra praetoria!!!! I will use that in my mod! congrats on 200 also

 

[platyping]

Something to celebrate 200:
Nomadic Trait

Spoiler :

Settler and Worker are excluded

Scientific Trait

Spoiler :

Seafaring Trait

Spoiler :

I chose to do this since +1 Movement is for whole team, which does not work correctly for a trait.

Strategic Trait

Spoiler :

The resource itself is added to an empty plot around the capital.
If there is none available, then it is added to capital's plot.
If capital's plot already has a resource, then finally resource is added to city itself.

I chose to do it this way so that if you don't protect the plot, the resource can be pillaged etc which is part of strategy you know.

Codes have been added so that newly liberated colonies with this trait gets the bonus as well

Notes:
As they are all modular, there isn't any Double Speed Buildings added as that would require editing the original XML file. Thus, if you want any double speed buildings, you gotta DIY
Enhanced Original Traits have been updated with these 4 additions.
Because EOT modified original XML files, it is not in modular form

 

[dacubz145]

Does the seafaring cargo count for every unit (meaning units w/o any get one?)
