Real Nobel Prize (GS only) 1.0

[Infixo]

Infixo submitted a new resource:

Real Nobel Prize (GS only) - Nobel Prize competition is always available

Nobel Prize competition is always available - the mod removes dependency on Sweden being in the game. Simplest mod I have ever done

This mod requires Gathering Storm expansion.

Please note that the descriptions are not changed, so they will still say "Sweden is awarding" no matter if Sweden is actually in the game.

Mod idea from Zyxpsilon.

Idea for the future
There are 6 fields: Chemistry, Literature, Peace, Physics, Medicine, Economics. The game "utlizes" 3, so 3 more...

For great works of chemistry it could be based on the amount of resources extracted in the period, like maybe just niter, oil, and uranium? Could be good. Also for economics it could be based off of great merchants (duh), admirals (they are from harbors), and engineers (they actually build the stuff).

So cool. Thanks for carrying this mod community, Infixo. You're a cornerpiece of everything we could ever be.

Medicine could be based off excess food and housing. I don't see food as purely representing the stuff we eat, but also as the general health of the population allowing it to grow. Overcrowding in cities tended to exacerbate communicable diseases. If points were gained from the average excess food from all your cities x average housing availability per turn, then smaller empires might be able to compete against sprawling ones too. Beyond more food/housing, I can't think of anything specific for rewards.

What is possible

Unfortunately scores do not use modifiers, only database fields. In other words - categories that the scoring can be based off are coded internally and limited.
There are now:
- Doing a Project -> can create projects activated only for a specific emeregency
- Building Buildings and Districts
- Generating GP points
- Generating Favors
- CO2 footprint - used by Climate Accords

Not sure what it does, needs trials:
- KilledEnemyUnit / MilitaryInEnemyTerritory / ReligiousInEnemyTerritory - used in military emergencies
- SpreadReligion / ReligionAttackedEnemy / ReligiousUnitsInEnemyTerritory - not used at all

So, can't "score" yields like gold or food, can't score population, etc.

In terms of Rewards, it is much better as they use modifiers. So, virtually anythnig that game supports is possible here.

Here’s are my idea. I tried to take into account what’s possible but i don’t know for a lot of things.

3 nobel prize amongst the 6 are randomly chosen each game. I think keeping something for sweden would be nice, could be something like more nobel prize or she choose which appears but i’m pretty confident it’s not doable.


Chemistry:
Point are marked by great scientist and great admiral.
Bronze award: technology boost
Silver award: oil per university
Gold award: uranium per university

Physics:
Point are marked by great engineer and great scientist.
Bronze: science per turn
Silver: aluminium per university
Gold: +X% production for city project.

Economy:
Points are marked by great merchant and luxury ressource owned or a special project
Bronze: +1 production in each city
Silver: +0.25 gold per population
Gold: 2 unique luxury ressource. Balance with quantity/or number of cities with amenities (like cinnamon)

Medicine:
Points are marked by maintaining granary, sewer and neighborhood
Bronze: +1 food or housing in each city
Silver: +15% growth
Gold: +5 health regenerated per turn for unit (like one of the great scientist).


Peace: same except great general would grant negative point

Litterature: same
