[Question] Removing Techs

[XerbSys]

Hallo,

i'm trying to remove some techs, to make things simple, let's assume the Tech to be removed is "writing" What have a done?

-> Read the forum and found at http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=405148
this example:

<Technologies>
<Update>
<Where Type="TECH_XXX"/>
<Set Disable="true"/>
</Update>
</Technologies>

-> Started ModBuddy, selcted new mod, empty mod
-> Added a new item "game rules (xml)
-> To disable "writing" i used:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- Created by ModBuddy on 7/12/2012 9:44:58 PM -->
<GameData>
<Technologies>
<Update>
<Where Type="TECH_WRITING"/>
<Set Disable="true"/>
</Update>
</Technologies>
</GameData>

->saved and build the whole stuff without problems
->started civ5, selected my mod
-> activated my mod, proceeded to singleplayer (no, i did not went back)
-> started the game, and my mod has no effect at all

Thanks for each idea!!

You need to go the the mod properties (right-click on the mod name in the Solution Explorer window, and select "Properties"), and add your file to the Actions tab (OnModActivated -> UpdateDatabase).
