Quick Answers / 'Newbie' Questions

Quick question:

When an AI breaks a trade agreement (open border, resources, GPT, etc) it's usually becomes your diplomatic status with them has fallen and if try to open the trade back up you get the "We just don't like you enough" and the option is redded out.

Last night however, when bismarck closed his borders to me, I immediately went to see if I could get them reopened. (in the same trade screen, I clicked care to negoiate when he informed me the deal was cancelled). For open borders in the trade I got a message saying "Not right now...maybe in a few turns"

What excatly causes this? A few turns later he did open borders with me, but our diplomatic status had not changed besides me losing the +2 from open borders when he closed them.

Sounds like a trade embargo. Either they were bribed to close borders with you (for X amount of turns) or more frequently you closed borders with them (for X amount of turns.)
 
Where can I find a list of acronyms/slang that the CivFanatics folks use and what they mean? For example, I see people use the term "Vanilla" and I wonder what they're talking about.
 
Mknn,

It could be because you dont have the tech to build it, or another city has it queued up behind their current build or a team mate is building the part.

Yeah, none of that is true. No teammates, I have the tech, and no other city has it in the queue. Anything else? My assumption is that there is some limit to the number of simultaneous spaceship parts that can be built, maybe?

Could you upload the savegame?

edit: I shouldn't be reading multiple threads at once. JujuLautre already said the same.
 
What does "we love the ___" day do? I've never been able to figure it out. Oh, and what causes it?

I think it means you don't pay any maintenance for that city for that turn.

It has something to do with having so many more healthy and healthy faces then unhappy and unhealthy, but I forget how excatly.
 
Is it possible to use more than one modification at the same time?
For example, I am using the Blue Marble modification right now, but I want to install Fall from Heaven, can I install it and have both? Or do I have to uninstall one to use the other? Another thing I am not sure about, is Fall from Heaven for BtS and Warlords? Or just One or the other?





Bitter.
 
The spaceship thing is my error: I was building the part in a rinky dink low production city far, far away. Must have mis-clicked at some point, and if it weren't for an opportune sort of the city screen, I prolly never would have noticed. Sorry about that.

Depends on the mod. In any case, you have to merge both in one mod only to make them function at the same time.

If they use different files, it's usually harmless. But if they do, you have to carefully merge them, and I fear this is sometimes not doable.

You can install Ffh and BM at the same time, you will just have two different mods. As for merging both, considering that BM only affects graphics, I think it's doable.

As for Ffh, I think there's both a BTS version and a warlords version, but not sure on that topic.

Eek...2 versions, 1 for warlord, 1 for BtS? Would you know where I can find the Warlords version by any chance?
When I downloaded it, it just had 1 download option. I am not sure if I have the right one, it just was a ZIP containing an .exe file.

Since the mods usually can't be just copied for each version of the game (vanilla, warlords, bts), I doubt it's the case for a complex mod such as ffh.

Did you searach in the ffh subforum? I can't think of any other place
