Quick Questions / Quick Answers

Hello


Sorry if I'm not asking the question in the right place, but I recently put some friends in Civ and we start a multiplayergame that is lagging a lot after several round.
Can you tell me what would be the best mod / patch that would simply permit to end the game by reducing the lag without adding anything new in the game?

Thank you

 

I thought that airports provide city connections, but seems not, so is it impossible to connect this city? I built it to grab 3 oil resources.

 

It's possible. Capture or found a coastal city on this island, build a lighthouse there and make a road to connect the 2 cities.

 

There's also a small mod that does just that. I think it's in the mix'n match mod list.

edit: shows up in my modlist as "Global - air routes (v2)"

 

When I last played you could make small canals with fort/citadel. It seems this has been changed but what are the exact rules now?

 

You should still be able to create, just smaller ones, you can't chain forts and citadels for eternity as far as I know. But I'm unsure what are the exact rules as of now.

 

I remember it used to be a limit of 3, typically fort-citadel-fort but when I tried just a fort-citadel in my last game it didn't work so I'm curious to how this works now.

 

I have a question about CS quests - in some games I get certain quests at some frequency (find NW for example, when I find 1 then there are 2-3 quests in 1-3 turns later or sometimes 15-30 turns later). But in other games I get quest for NW only after I have discovered everything around and I have to discover Astronomy and move to another landmass to complete that quest.
Where can I see probability of CS quests and can I change those?

 

With some quick tests with IDE I found that the maximum canal length is 2 (can be made with any combination of city,fort,or citadel). It seems ownership of the tile might also affect whether or not ships can pass.

 

Your ship can pass a chain of fort/citadel/fort if there is a lake next to the citadel.

 

Each Fort/Citadel/City must be adjacent to water.

 

What was the last patch / version where Songhai's Mandekalu Cavalry replaced Horseman instead of Knights? I have "unfinished business" with them, even though everyone says the new version is the best.

 

In Civilopedia I see melee promotion "A winner is you" that cannot be chosen and grants +75% CS. Who can get this promo and when?

 

I don't see it anywhere. Is it a mod?

 

Hello, Happy Holidays to everybody!
Does anybody know how Adobe of Peace (1 Gold and 1 Faith in Holy City for every 10 Followers of this Religion in Foreign Cities. Minimum of 35 Influence in City States following this Religion. +20% rewards in City State Quests.) work when asking tribute from a CS? Can I keep the 35 influence and still remain friend with them even if I had only 35 influence when asking tribute. Thanks.

 

It only prevents by naturally going down below 35, if you ask for tribute it can go below (except if you have Tyranny (Tier 3 Autocracy policy)). Happy Holidays for you too as well, my friend!

 

Thanks for the info. Then I pick a different enhancer.

 

A question about barbarian bonuses. Looking at the difficulty file, it seems to suggest the human has more bonuses against barbarians up to immortal than AI. Is this so, or am I missing something.

 

Hi! I haven't played Vox Populi for 1 year. Have there been any major changes?

 

Define "major". AI's been getting constant updates, which in itself is "major" for me. There've been balance changes, some other, smaller changes, which can stack up. There was a spy rework (I'm not sure if it's over a year now or in the meantime, I often lose track of time...) which could be considered as major. Ohh, and don't forget all the bugfixes, which've been also plenty.
